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

Given:
μ = 89 ng/ml, population mean
σ = 23 ng/ml, population standard deviation

Random variable, x = 100
To test P(x < 100), calculate the z-score.
 z = (x-μ)/σ = (100 - 89)/23 = 0.4783

From standard tables, obtain
P(x < 100) = 0.6838 = 68.4%
