A quadratic function models the profit of the company and the maximum/minimum value of the quadratic function occurs on its vertex.
The given function is:

The equation is already in standard form, the vertex of the parabola as seen from the equation is (5,12)
This mean if the company sets the price of socks to $5 they will earn a maximum profit which is $ 12 million
Answer: <u>3.7</u>
Step-by-step explanation: 3.706, but since you need it rounded to the nearest tenth its 3.7. If you put both equations on a graph, they intercept. We use the x coordinate in this intersection as the answer.
Answer:First you have to add all of the shirts together, which gives you: 40
Since 15 of those are black, then you need to put those 15 over the total number of 40, making it 15/40.
Then you must simplify by the highest number that will go into both, and since that number is 5, it will then go into 15 three times and it will go into 40 eight times.
That leaves you with the answer of: 3/8
The fraction would be 17/100
The value is 4 because 4b is also 4 times three which is twelve then you divide 12 by three and get 4
