Question 62754: WHAT IS THE MAXIMUM VALUE OF y=-x^2+6x?
This is a quadratic with a=-1 and b=6
The maximum point occurs when x=-b/(2a)
x=-6/(-2)=3
When x=3, y= -3^2+6(3)=9
Maximum at (3,9)
Cheers,

Question 63222: I have many word problems to solve that are similar to this one, but I need help with the questions on this one word problem so I can use it as an example to look at and answer the other problems on my own. Here is the word problem and questions below......... In most businesses, increasing prices of their product can have a negative effect on the number of customers of the business. A bus company in a small town has an average number of riders of 1,000 per day. The bus company charges $2.00 for a ride. They conducted a survey of their customers and found that they will lose approximately 50 customers per day for each $.25 increase in fare.
Given the description above, graph the function, identify the graph of the function (line, parabola, hyperbola, or exponential), find the slope of the graph, find the price at which there will be no more riders, and find the maximum number of riders possible. The vertical axis is the number of riders per day, and the horizontal axis is the fare.
What is the graph and graph type?
What is the slope of the graph?
1)The bus company has determined that even if they set the price very low, there is a maximum number of riders permitted each day. If the price is $0 (free), how many riders are permitted each day?
2)If the bus company sets the price too high, no one will be willing to ride the bus. Beginning at what ticket price will no one be willing to ride the bus?
3) It is approximately 300 miles from Chicago, Illinois, to St. Louis, Missouri. Allowing for various traffic conditions, a driver can average approximately 60 miles per hour.
a)How far have you traveled after 3 hours?
b)How far have you traveled after 4 hours?
c)How far have you traveled after t hours? i.e. write a linear function that expresses the distance traveled, d, as a function of time, t.
d)How far will you HAVE LEFT to travel to reach St. Louis after you have traveled 3 hours?
e)How far will you HAVE LEFT to travel to reach St. Louis after you have traveled 4 hours?
f)How far will you HAVE LEFT to travel to reach St. Louis after you have traveled t hours? i.e. write a linear function that expresses the distance to be traveled to reach St. Louis, s, as a function of time, t.

Question 63599: help!
Nutts nuts has 75lbs of chashew and 120lbs of peanuts. These are to be mixed in 1 pound packages as follows:a low grade mixture that contains 4ounces of cashew and 12ounces of peanuts. High grade mixture contains 8 ounces of cashew and 8 ounces of peanuts. On the low-grade mixture a profit of $0.25 a package is to be made while the high-grade mixture profit is to be $0.45 a package. How many packges of each mixture should be made to botain a maximum profit?
x=# of packages of low grade mixture
y=# of package of high grade mixture
The profit P is given by the linear equation
p=($0.25)x + ($0.45)y
