A small cruising ship that can hold up to
56 people provides three-day excursions to groups of
34 or more. If the group contains
34 people, each person pays
$68. The cost per person for all members of the party is reduced by
34. Find the size of the group that maximizes income for the owners of the ship.

slope is 35 and 20 miles is the y-intercept.

answer: 323 is how many she has ☃☃⛄❄

step-by-step explanation:

is there more to this question?

1. when "a" is a root of a polynomial, (x -a) is a factor of it. for the three roots given, the factors of the desired polynomial are (x +2)(x -1/2)(x -3).

in order to make the leading coefficient be negative, we need to multiply this product by a negative number. any negative number will do, but we choose a small (magnitude) value that will eliminate the fraction: -2.

then

f(x) = -2(x +2)(x -1/2)(x -3) = -(x +2)(2x -1)(x -3)

= -(2x² +3x -2)(x -3)

= -(2x³ -3x² -11x +6)

f(x) = -2x³ +3x² +11x -6

2. a graph created by the desmos on-line graphing calculator is shown, and the zeros are highlighted.

3. as indicated in part 1, the multiplier of this equation can be anything and the zeros will remain the same. you want a negative leading coefficient, so the "anything" is restricted to any of the infinite number of numbers that will make that be the case.
