It is asking for the vertex I think. Answer by KMST(5328) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! They are really asking for the x-coordinate (or the axis of symmetry for the quadratic function total sales as function of number of stores visited.
Hulu are told average sales per store, , is a linear function of (number of stores visited).
It is <---> ,
with a slope of , and
going through the point with for .
Total sales is given by or ---> .
The vertex is a maximum an happens for .
