A quadratic function models the profit of the company and the maximum/minimum value of the quadratic function occurs on its vertex. 

The given function is:

P(x)=-3(x-5)^{2}+12

The equation is already in standard form, the vertex of the parabola as seen from the equation is (5,12)

This mean if the company sets the price of socks to $5 they will earn a maximum profit which is $ 12 million

Gabriella and her children went into a grocery store and where they sell apples for $1 each and mangos for $0.50 each. Gabriella
Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of apples that she wants to buy.

The grocery store sells apples for $1 each and mangos for $0.50 each.

If Gabriella decided to buy 13 mangos, it means that the cost of buying x apples and 13 mangoes is expressed as

x + 13 × 0.5 = x + 6.5

If she buy at least 19 apples, it means that

x + 13 ≥ 19

x ≥ 19 - 13

x ≥ 6

Gabriella has $15 to spend. It means that

x + 6.5 ≤ 15

x ≤ 15 - 6.5

x ≤ 8.5

Therefore, the maximum number of apples that she can buy is 8
