The function y=-2(x-3)2 + 4 shows the daily profit (in hundreds of dollars) of a hot dog stand, where xis the price of a hot dog (in dollars). Find and

interpret the zeros of this function.

Select two answers: one for the zeros and one for the interpretation.

O A. Zeros at x = 3 1/2

B. The zeros are the hot dog prices at which they sell o hot dogs.

C. Zeros at x = 2 and x = 3

D. The zeros are the hot dog prices that give $0.00 profit (no profit).

D. The zeros are the hot dog prices that give $0.00 profit (no profit).

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the function  y=-2(x-3)² + 4

The zeros of the function are the points at which the graph of the function crosses the x axis if plotted. y is the daily profit (in hundreds of dollars) and x is the price of the hot dog. To find the zeros, we substitute x = 0 and solve.

Therefore:  y=2(x-3)² + 4

0 = 2(x-3)² + 4

-2(x² - 6x + 9) + 4 = 0

-2x² + 12x - 18 + 4 = 0

2x² - 12x + 18 - 4 = 0

2x² - 12x + 14 = 0

2(x² - 6x + 7) = 0

x² - 6x + 7 = 0

Solving the quadratic equation gives:

x = 3 + √2 and x = 3 - √2

This means that the graph crosses x at 3 + √2 and 3 - √2.

The zeros of the function are 3 + √2 and 3 - √2. The zeros of the function is the point where y = 0, that is the point that the hot dog prices that give $0.00 profit (no profit).
