The correct answer is 3.5
Two chords AC and BD are intersecting inside the circle. The Intersecting Chord Theorem states that when two chords intersect inside a circle, the products of their segments are equal.
Thus, for the given circle:
(AE) × (EC) = (BE) × (ED)
The lengths of the segments are
AE = 7
EC = 2
BE = 4
ED = ?
To solve for ED, we simply substitute the known values into the equation

So hmm let's take a peek at the cost first
so, they chartered the plane for 150 folks with a fixed cost of 250,000
now, incidental fees are 300 per person, if we use the quantity "x", for how many folks, then if "x" persons are booked, then incidental fees are 300x
so, more than likely an insurance agency is charging them 300x for coverage
anyway, thus the cost C(x) = 250,000 + 300x
now, the Revenue R(x), is simple is jut price * quantity
well, the price, thus far we know is 5000 for 80 folks, but it can be lowered by 30 to get one more person, thus increasing profits
so... let's see what the price say y(x) is
so.. now we know y(x) = -30x+7400
now, Revenue is just price * quantity
the price y(x) is -30x+7400, the quantity is "x"
that simply means R(x) = -30x²+7400x
now, for the profit P(x)
the profit is simple, that is just incoming revenue minus costs, whatever is left, is profit
so P(x) = R(x) - C(x)
P(x) = (7400x - 30x²) - (250,000+300x)
P(x) = -30x² + 7100x - 250,000
now, where does it get maximized? namely, where's the maximum for P(x)?
well
and as you can see, if you zero out the derivative, there's only 1 critical point, run a first-derivative test on it, to see if its a maximum
