Answer:

The expression Barak could use to find the amount he will spend to feed his pet lizards for one day = Number of pets × number of crickets per pet × cost of each crickets

Step-by-step explanation:

Pet lizards = 4

Each lizard eats 5 crickets

4 pet lizards will eat = 4 × 5 crickets

= 20 crickets

A cricket = 12 cents

That is, $0.12

Cost of 20 crickets = 20 × $0.12

= $2

The expression Barak could use to find the amount he will spend to feed his pet lizards for one day

= Number of pets × number of crickets per pet × cost of each crickets

= (4) (5) (0.12)

= $2.4

Find the values of b such that the function has the given maximum value.

gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

So, the equation has a leading term with a negative coefficient, and is a quadratic, meaning is a parabola opening downwards, so it goes up and up and up and then makes a U-turn then down down, so it has a maximum point, that is, at the vertex point

so.. where the dickens is the vertex at?
we're asked to make the vertex with a y-coordinate of 104, so the maximum value is 104

well
$\bf y = {{ a}}x^2{{ +b}}x{{ +c}}\qquad 
\left(-\cfrac{{{ b}}}{2{{ a}}}\quad ,\quad {{ c}}-\cfrac{{{ b}}^2}{4{{ a}}}\right)\\\\
-----------------------------\\\\
\textit{so we want }\implies {{ c}}-\cfrac{{{ b}}^2}{4{{ a}}}=104
\\\\
\textit{let's take a peek at your equation}\quad 
\begin{array}{ccccllll}
f(x)=&-x^2&+bx&-17\\
f(x)=&-1x^2&+bx&-17\\
&\uparrow &\uparrow &\uparrow \\
&a&b&c
\end{array}
\\\\
thus
\\\\
(-17)=\cfrac{b^2}{4(-1)}=104$

solve for "b"
