12. The function f (x) = –5x ² + 50x approximates the profit at a toy company, where x is marketing costs and f (x) is profit. Both costs and profits are measured in tens of thousands of dollars. Use the graph to estimate the profit when marketing costs are $30,000. Confirm your estimate algebraically. Answer: $1,050,000

13. Example 1 Answer: $1,050,000 $30,000 is three ten thousands. The function value at x = 3 appears to be about 100 ten thousands, so the total profit was about $1,000,000. To confirm this estimate algebraically, find f(3). f(3) =  5(3) 2 + 50(3) = 105, or about $1,050,000. The graphical estimate of about $1,000,000 is reasonable.

14. Graphs restricted by an interval. A-Z Toy Boat Company found the average price of its boats over a six month period. The average price for each boat can be represented by the polynomial p (x) = –0.325x³ + 1.5x² + 22, where x is the month, and 0 < x ≤ 6. Use the graph to estimate the average price of a boat in the fourth month. Confirm you estimate algebraically. A.$25 B.$23 C.$22 D.$20
