Challenge: Maximizing Profit Using Quadratic Functions
Aufgabe
Swipe to start coding
A small business tracks its monthly profit over a 12-month period. You're given the company's profit function:
P(x)=−x2+12x−20- x = Number of units sold;
- P(x) = Profit in $1000 units;
- The negative coefficient of x2 means profit increases to a point, then decreases due to production costs.
- Find the optimal number of units to sell (vertex of the parabola).
- Find the breakeven points where profit is zero (roots of the equation).
