Question 1197371: A soft-drink vendor at a popular beach analyzes his sales records and finds that if he sells x cans of soda pop in one day, his profit (in dollars) is given by
P(x) = −0.001x^2 + 5x − 1875.
What is his maximum profit per day?
You can put this solution on YOUR website! P(x) = −0.001x^2 + 5x − 1875.
OR
P(x)=ax^2+bx+c---------------do you understand completing the square to find the vertex point? Or do you remember the resulting formula?
