13,822 to one significant figure is 10,000

623 to one significant figure is 600

14 to one significant figure is 10

10,000 times 600 = 6,000,000

6,000,000/10 = 600,000

Answer:

The maximum amount of profit is 32

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$y=-x^2+64x-292$

Required

Determine the maximum profit

This is calculated by calculating the maximum of the function.

A quadratic function is of the form

$y = ax^2 + bx + c$

and its maximum is:

$Max = \frac{-b}{2a}$

So: $y=-x^2+64x-292$

We have that

$a = -1$

$b = 64$

$c = -292$

$Max = \frac{-b}{2a}$

$Max = \frac{-64}{2 * -1}$

$Max = \frac{-64}{-2}$

$Max = 32$

<em>Hence, the maximum amount of profit is 32</em>
