The point on the curve is (–4, 140)
Solution:
Given 
and slope is –67.
slope = –67
– – – – (1)
Now calculate 
for the given curve .
Using differential rule:
– – – – (2)
Equate (1) and (2).
⇒ x = –4
Substitute x = –4 in y.
⇒ 
⇒ 
⇒ y = 140
Hence, the point on the curve given is (–4, 140).

Answer:
- New York style: $14
- Chocolate Marble: $16
Step-by-step explanation:
We can let n and c represent the costs of the New York style and the chocolate marble cheesecakes, respectively. Then the two sales are ...
11n +7c = 266 . . . . . . . Rob's sale
4n +14c = 280 . . . . . . Amy's sale
The ratio of coefficients of c is a "nice" number (2), so we can eliminate the c variable easily to solve this. Dividing the second equation by 2 and subtracting it from the first gives ...
(11n +7c) -(1/2)(4n +14c) = (266) -(1/2)(280)
9n = 126 . . . . . . simplify
n = 14 . . . . . . . . divide by 9
Filling this into the first equation, we have ...
11(14) +7c = 266
7c = 112 . . . . . . . . subtract 154
c = 16 . . . . . . . divide by 7
One New York style cheesecake costs $14; one chocolate marble cheesecake costs $16.

Hello!
To find the maximum value of the function f(x) = -3(x - 10)(x - 4), the easiest way is to find the vertex using the formula: x = -b/2a.
Firstly, we need to simplify f(x).
f(x) = -3(x - 10)(x - 4)
f(x) = -3(x² - 14x + 40)
f(x) = -3x² + 42x + -120
Since the equation f(x) is now simplified to standard form, we can find the vertex.
a = -3, b = 42, and c = -120
x = -(42)/2(-3) = -42/-6 = 7
Then, we substitute 7 into the the function f(x) = -3(x - 10)(x - 4), or
f(x) = -3x² + 42x + -120, to find the y-value of the vertex.
f(x) = -3(7 - 10)(7 - 4)
f(x) = -3(-3)(4)
f(x) = 27
The vertex of f(x) is (7, 27).
Therefore, the maximum x-value for the function f(x) is 7.
