The graph is shifted left 3 units.

We know that the graph of f(x) is NOT widened, because for a number c greater than 1, cf(x) stretches the graph vertically, not horizontally.

We know that the graph of f(x) is NOT shifted up 30 units. It is tempting to say this because we do see +30 as the last term. But, we have to calculate the vertex of g(x). If we find the point $P( \frac{-b}{2a}, g(\frac{-b}{2a}))$ , that is, by taking doing $\frac{-24}{2*4} = -3$ , $g(-3)=-6$ , we see that the vertex is six units down from f(x), not 30 units up!

We know that the graph of f(x) is NOT reflected over the x-axis, because there would need to a negative coefficient on the $x^2$ -term, and there isn't.

We know that the graph of f(x) IS shifted 3 units to the left. When we calculated the vertex earlier, we saw that it is $(-3,6)$ , which indeed corresponds to a shift 3 units to the left from the origin.

a lunch stand makes a $.75 profit on each chef's salad and $1.20 profit on each caesar salad. On a typical weekday, it sells bet

tangare [24]

Answer:

50 Chef's salads and 50 Caesar salads should be prepared in order to maximize profit.

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose, the number of Chef's salad is $x$ and the number of Caesar salad is $y$

On a typical weekday, it sells between 40 and 60 Chefs salads and between 35 and 50 Caesar salads.

So, the two constraints are: $40\leq x\leq 60$ and $35\leq y\leq 50$

The total number sold has never exceed 100 salads. So, another constraint will be: $x+y\leq 100$

According to the graph of the constraints, the vertices of the common shaded region are: $(40,35), (60,35), (60,40), (50,50)$ and $(40,50)$ (Refer to the attached image for the graph)

The lunch stand makes a $.75 profit on each Chef's salad and $1.20 profit on each Caesar salad. So, the profit function will be: $P=0.75x+1.20y$

For (40, 35) , $P=0.75(40)+1.20(35)=72$

For (60, 35) , $P=0.75(60)+1.20(35)=87$

For (60, 40) , $P=0.75(60)+1.20(40)=93$

For (50, 50) , $P=0.75(50)+1.20(50)=97.5$ (Maximum)

For (40, 50) , $P=0.75(40)+1.20(50)=90$

Profit will be maximum when $x=50$ and $y=50$

Thus, 50 Chef's salads and 50 Caesar salads should be prepared in order to maximize profit.

Which of the following could be the equation for a parabola that opens to the left with vertex (-17,2)?

Sholpan [36]

A sideways opening parabola is in the form $x= y^{2}$ , so we know from the process of elimination that it will either be b or c. Next we have to realize that if the parabola opens to the left it is a negative parabola, just like if a parabola opens upside down it is a negative parabola. So the one that has the negative out front is b.
