Answer:
The answer is b) 18.75% decrease
The equation is at the top, the steps are in between, and the answer is at the bottom
hope this helps
For the equation F(x) = ax² + bx + c we have:
- maximum value if a<0
- minimum value if a>0
F(x) = -3x² + 18x + 3 ⇒ a = -3, b = 18
a < 0 ⇒ the function has a maximum value
Quadratic function has the maximum value (or minimum) at vertex of its parabola.
The maximum value is k at x=h where:
and k = F(h)

Therefore:
<h3>
The function has a maximum value of 30 at x = 3</h3>
Answer:
325 miles and 77 dollars
Step-by-step explanation:
First, create equations. Let x equal the miles driven. The first plan expression is 38 + 0.12x and the second plan expression is 51 + 0.08x. Setting these equal and solve for x: 38 + 0.12x = 51 + 0.08x -> 0.04x = 13 -> x = 325 miles.
The cost is found by substituting it into any of the expressions: 51 + 0.08(325) = 77 or 38 + 0.12(325) = 77
