Answer: 42</h3>
Explanation:
We have y = -0.9x^2 + 76x - 250 which is in the form y = ax^2+bx+c
where,
The vertex (h,k) is when the profit is maxed out.
h = -b/(2a)
h = -76/(2(-0.9))
h = 42.222 approximately
Let's plug in x values around x = 42
Try x = 41
y = -0.9x^2 + 76x - 250
y = -0.9(41)^2 + 76(41) - 250
y = 1353.10
Now try x = 42
y = -0.9x^2 + 76x - 250
y = -0.9(42)^2 + 76(42) - 250
y = 1354.4
Now try x = 43
y = -0.9x^2 + 76x - 250
y = -0.9(43)^2 + 76(43) - 250
y = 1353.9
We see that the largest profit happens when x = 42.

yes
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
(7, -6)
Step-by-step explanation:
You want to find point X on the segment from A to B such that ...
(X -A)/(B -X) = 3/2
2(X -A) = 3(B -X) . . . . . . cross multiply
2X -2A = 3B -3X . . . . . eliminate parentheses
5X = 2A +3B . . . . . . . . add 3X +2A
X = (2A +3B)/5 . . . . . . . divide by 5
Filling in the given points for A and B, we have ...
X = (2(4, -3) +3(9, -8))/5 = (8+27, -6-24)/5 = (35, -30)/5
X = (7, -6)
The point that divides the segment in the proportions 3:2 is (7, -6).
An odd number ends in 1, 3, 5, 7, or 9.
