Description:
f(x) – 83 = 3x2 – 30x. The graph of f(x) models a mountain pass, which is the region between two peaks. The function measures the height in feet (hundreds), and f(x) = 0 represents sea level. The x-values represent the distance, also in hundreds of feet, from cabins in which hikers can stay. If f(c) represents the lowest point of the mountain pass, what is the value of c?

eight and we want to be sure we didn't come
- 02:17
all this way to mess things up with finish line
- 02:20
So we got to go back the problem and see
- 02:21
what we're supposed to find in the first place We
- 02:24
don't want the vertex or the height at the minimum
- 02:26
of half of season eight we want the vertex is
- 02:29
x value So forget that eat There is just five

That's the answer It's about
