How to find the lowest approval rating and when it was with the following formula\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "A=2.5x^2-9.5x+48
\n" ); document.write( "========================
\n" ); document.write( "The lowest value occurs when dA/dx = 0:
\n" ); document.write( "dA/dx = 5x - 9.5 = 0
\n" ); document.write( "x = 1.9
\n" ); document.write( "So A(min) = 2.5*1.9^2 - 9.5*1.9 + 48 = 38.975
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
