# 10.5 Graphing quadratic equations  (Page 8/15)

 Page 8 / 15

In the previous set of exercises, you worked with the quadratic equation $R=\text{−}{x}^{2}+100x$ that modeled the revenue received from selling backpacks at a price of $x$ dollars. You found the selling price that would give the maximum revenue and calculated the maximum revenue. Now you will look at more characteristics of this model.
Graph the equation $R=\text{−}{x}^{2}+100x$ . Find the values of the x -intercepts.

## Writing exercises

For the revenue model in [link] and [link] , explain what the x -intercepts mean to the computer store owner.

kg to lbs you goin to convert 2.2 or one if the same unit your going to time your body weight by 3. example if my body weight is 210lb. what would be my weight if I was 3 times as much in kg. that's you do 210 x3 = 630lb. then 630 x 2.2= .... hope this helps
