Answer:

$519

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the amount of profit made expressed as y=-2x^2+105x-859

At maximum profit, dy/dx = 0

dy/dx = -4x + 105

0 = -4x + 105

4x = 105

x = 105/4

x = 26.25

Substitute into the original function

y=-2x^2+105x-859

y=-2(26.25)^2+105(26.25)-859

y = - 1,378.125+2,756.25-859

y = 519.125

Hence the maximum amount of profit the company can make is $519

PLS HELP. BRAINLIEST/5 STARS TO CORRECT ANSWER
fenix001 [56]

Where p is the distance the focus is above the vertex, the equation of a parabola with vertex (h, k) can be written as

... y = 1/(4p)·(x -h)² +k


The vertex is halfway between the focus and directrix. The focus of your parabola is on the y-axis at y=6, and the directrix of your parabola is at y=-6, so the vertex of your parabola is on the y-axis at y=0. That is, the vertex is

... (h, k) = (0, 0).


The distance p from the focus at y=6 to the vertex at y=0 is 6 units, so

... p = 6.


Filling these values into the equation gives

... y = 1/(4·6)·(x -0)² +0

... y = (1/24)x²

1)
log 98 = log( 7 * 14 ) = log 7+ log 14= h  +  j ;

2) 
log 175 = log ( 5^2 * 7 ) = log 5 ^ 2 + log 7 = 2 * log 5 + log 7 = 2i + h ;

3)
log 2 = log ( 14 / 7 ) = log 14 - log 7 = j  -  h ;

4)
log 245 = log ( 7^2 * 5 ) = log 7 ^2 + log 5 = 2 * log 7 + log 5 = 2h + i ;
