Explanation of Solution
Given: Identify the function graphed as linear or nonlinear. Then estimate and interpret the intercepts of the graph, any symmetry, where the function is symmetry, where the function is positive and negative, increasing or decreasing, the
Linear or Nonlinear: Since the graph is a curve, not a line. The graph is Nonlinear.
This means that the company spends
This means that company spends
Symmetry: Drawing a vertical line through
Positive: The graph is positive when it is above the
This means that the company will make a profit if it spends between
Negative: The graph is negative when it is below the
This means that the company will make a loss if it spends more than
Increasing: The graph is rising from left to right so it is increasing for
This means that the profit will increase until advertising expenses reach
Decreasing: The entire graph is fallingfrom left to right so it isdecreasing for
This means that the prfit will decrease as advertising expenses go above
Relative Extrema: The point
End Behavior: As
This means that the profit is decreasing if the company spends more on the advertising.
