The function f(x) = −x2 + 60x − 116 models the monthly profit, in dollars, a shop makes for repairing windshields, where x is th
e number of windshields repaired. Determine the vertex, and explain what it means in the context of the problem. (30, 784); The vertex represents the maximum profit. (30, 784); The vertex represents the minimum profit.
(2, 58); The vertex represents the maximum profit.
(2, 58); The vertex represents the minimum profit.
y is said to be a function of x. where x is the independent variable and y is the dependent variable. The height of the stacks is y and the number of cups in the stack is x, so yes, we can say that the height of the stack is a function of the number of cups in the stack.
