Me ! will give 50 pts the function f(x) = –x2 + 18x – 72 models the daily profit, in dollars, a gym makes for selling memberships, where x is the number of memberships sold, and f(x) is the amount of profit. part a: determine the vertex. what does this calculation mean in the context of the problem? (5 points) part b: determine the x-intercepts. what do these values mean in the context of the problem? )

options a,b,c are the right answer.

step-by-step explanation:

a linear parent function is always represented as y = x

if we write this function in the form of y=mx+c

⇒

or  

now if we plot a graph we will find these characteristics:

1) y intercept of the graph is zero so its a straight line passing through origin.

2) as we can see in both the forms of function written, values of x and y may be either positive or negative for the positive slope means points on the graph are either in first quadrant or in third one.

3) it's slope is one.

its an acute right triangle
