23. Over the course of a year, from April to the following March, a business owner sees a rise and fall in her monthly profits, which can be approximated by a quadratic function. A maximum profit of $12,000 is recorded during the month of September. By January, that figure has dropped to $4,000. According to these numbers, approximately how much profit, in dollars, did the business owner record during February of that year? Note, negative profit just indicates a loss. A. -$12,500 B. -$500 C. $500 D. $12,500

Thank you so much
A quadratic function models a projectile's height, in meters, above the ground in terms of the time, in seconds, after it was launched. The model estimates that the projectile was launched from an initial height of 7 meters above the ground and reached a maximum height of 51.1 meters above the ground 3 seconds after the launch. How many seconds after the launch does the model estimate that the projectile will return to a height of 7 meters? A. 3 B. 6 C. 7 D. 9
