A parabola is a quadratic function, and a quadratic can be expressed in vertex form, which is:

y=a(x-h)^2+k, where (h,k) is the vertex (absolute maximum or minimum point of the quadratic)

In this case we are given that (h,k) is (-5,80) so we have so far:

y=a(x--5)^2+80

y=a(x+5)^2+80, we are also told that it passes through the point (0,-45) so:

-45=a(0+5)^2+80

-45=25a+80  subtract 80 from both sides

-125=25a  divide both sides by 25

-5=a, so now we know the complete vertex form is:

y=-5(x+5)^2+80

The x-intercepts occur when y=0 so:

0=-5(x+5)^2+80  add 5(x+5)^2 to both sides

5(x+5)^2=80  divide both sides by 5

(x+5)^2=16  take the square root of both sides

x+5=±√16  which is

x+5=±4  subtract 5 from both sides

x=-5±4 so the x-intercepts are:

x=-1 and -9

Which quadratic function shows a y-intercept of 4 and a maximum value of 5
Elena L [17]

Answer:

The 4th graph

Step-by-step explanation:

To have a maximum value, your parabola would have to open downwards. So the first 2 are wrong. Since your y-intercept is positive 4, your graph would have to touch the y axis at 4. The 3rd graph is wrong since it touches the y-axis at a negative point. The correct answer would be the 4th answer choice.

If you are -$8000 one month, the next month you need to make 8000 to break even.

April net profit must be +$8,000 to break even.
