The revenue function is .
(a).
At what price ,the revenue is zero.
Therefore ball will strike the ground at distance
Substitute in .
or .
The revenue is zero where price is $ and $.
(b).
The revenue is$ .
Therefore substitute in .
Find the vertex of above quadratic function .
Compare it to .
, and .
Since , then the parabola open upward.
coordinate of vertex is
Vertex
Graph:
Graph the quadratic equation
Draw the coordinate plane.
Plot the intercepts and vertex.
Connect the plotted points.
observe the graph:
The price is in between $ and $.
Hence .
(a).The price is $ and $.
(b)..
