Using the vertex of the quadratic function, it is found that:
a) The maximum number of customers in the store is at 12 P.M.
b) 75 customers are in the store at this time.
The number of customers in x hours after 7 AM is given by:
Which is a quadratic equation with coefficients
Item a:
The maximum value, considering that a < 0, happens at:
Hence:
5 hours after 7 A.M, hence, the maximum number of customers in the store is at 12 P.M.
Item b:
The value is y(5), hence:
75 customers are in the store at this time.
