Answer:
B)max/ opens down
Step-by-step explanation:
Parabola equation:
The equation of a parabola has the following format:
If 
, that is, x² is multiplied by a positive number, the function has a minimum value and the parabola opens up.
If 
, that is, x² is multiplied by a negative number, the function has a maximum value and the parabola opens down.
In this question:
From the graph, we already see that it opens down and has a max, and analitically, since 
, this is confirmed. The correct answer is given by option b.
The area is 7.07
A=1/4(pi)d^2
For Part A: the answer is 90 muffins total.
For Part B: the answer is 150 muffins total.
All you have to do is divide x (number of muffins the baker made) by 0.4 to get the total amount of muffins made.
