.


I think / (I suspect) that the formula in your post is written incorrectly.


I suspect that it should go this way


&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;A = 50*(m -8 )^2  -  3200


showing a quadratic function.


If so, please confirm by re-posting the corrected version to the forum.



Please do not post it to me personally (!)
