Marvin has a mango plantation. If he picks the mangoes now, he will get 40 small
crates and make a profit of Php 100 per crate. For every week that he delays

An object is thrown vertially upward with a velocity of 96 m/sec. The distance S(t)
above the ground after t second is given by the formula S(t) 96t – 5t2.
What is It
9
Example1. Find the dimension of the largest rectangular garden that
can be enclosed by 60 meters of fencing.
Solution 1:
Let x and y be the sides of the garden. The total perimeter of the garden
is 60 meters. Thus
P = 2x + 2y
2x + 2y = 60
x + y = 30 --------------------dividing all the terms by 2
y = 30 – x -----------------addition property of equality
substituting in the area of rectangle A = xy
A = xy
A = x(30 – x)
A = 30x –x2
In standard form
A = - x2 + 30x
= -(x2 – 30 + 225) + 225 --------completing the square
= - (x – 15)2 + 225
The vertex of the graph of the function is (15, 225). The maximum point is 225.
Thus, the maximum area is 225 square meter when the width is 15 meters. If the
width is 15m, then the length is (30 – 15)m or 15 m also.
Solution 2:
A = x(30 – x)
= 30x – x2
= - x2 + 30x
= - (x2 – 30 x + 225) + 225
= - (x- 15)2 + 225
The vertex of the graph of the function is (15, 225). The maximum point is 225.
Thus, the maximum area is 225 square meter when the width is 15 meters. If the
width is 15m, then the length is (30 – 15)m or 15 m also.
Example 2. Find two real numbers whose sum is 14 and whose product is 49.
Solution:
Let x be one of the number
14 – x be the other number

A Quadratic function can be applied in business/industry to determine the
maximum profit, the break –even situation and the like.
Suppose x denotes the number of units a company plans to produce or sell. The
revenue function R(x) defined as R(x) = (price per unit) x (number of units produced
or sold).
Example 3. A garments store sells about 40 t-shirts per week at a price of Php 100
each. For Php 10 decrease in price, the sales lady found out that 5
more t-shirts per week were sold. Write a quadratic function in
standard form that models the revenue from t-shirt sales. What price
produce the maximum revenue?
Solution:
Let x be the number of additional number of t-shirt sold.
You know that the Revenue R(x) = (price per unit) x (number of units
produced or sold).
Therefore, Revenue R(x) = (Number of t-shirts sold)(Price per t-shirt)
Revenue R(x) = (40 + 5x)(100 – 10x)
R(x) = -50x2 + 100x + 4000
If we transform the function into the form y = a(x – h)2 + k
R(x) = -50(x – 1)2 + 4050
The vertex is (1, 4050)
Thus the maximum revenue is Php 4,050.
The price of the t-shirt to produce maximum revenue can be determined by
P(x) = 100 - 10x
P(x) = 100 – 10(1)
P(x) = 90
Thus, Php 90 is the price of the t-shirt that produces maximum revenue.
Free falling objects can be modelled by a quadratic function h(t) = - 4.9t2 + V0t + h0,
where h(t) is the height of an object at t seconds, when it is thrown with an initial
velocity of V0 m/s and an initial height of h0 meters. If the units are in feet, then
the function is h(t) = - 16t2 + V0t + h0.
From a 96-foot building, an object is thrown straight up into the air then follows
a trajectory. He height S(t) of the ball above the building after t seconds is given by
the function S(t) = 80t – 16t2.
Solution:
1. The maximum height reached by the object is the ordinate of the vertex
of the parabola of the function S(t) = 80t – 16t2. By transforming this
equation into the completed square form,
11
S(t) = 80t – 16t2
S(t) = -16t2 + 80t
S(t) = -16(t2 - 5t)
S(t) = -16(t2 – 5t + ) + 100
S(t) = -16(t - )2+ 100
( )
The vertex is , 100 , thus the maximum height reached by the object is
100 ft from the top of the building. This is 196 ft from the ground.
2. The time for an object to reach the maximum height is the abcissa of the
vertex of the parabola or the value of h.
S(t) = 80t – 16t2
S(t) = -16(t - )2+ 100
Since the value of h is or 2.5, then the object is at its maximum height after 2.5
seconds.
3. To find the time it will take the object to hit the ground, let S(t) = -96,
since the height of the building is 96 ft. The problem requires us to solve
for t.
h(t) = 80t – 16t2
- 96 = 80t – 16t2
16t2 -80t – 96 = 0
t2 – 5t – 6 = 0
(t – 6)(t + 1) = 0
t = 6 or t = -1
Thus, it will take 6 seconds before the object hit the ground.
