The quadratic function that gives the charge in dollars for a piece of regular glass whose longest side measures x inches is:
g(x) = 0.75x² + c
How to write a a quadratic function?
To write a quadratic function g(x) that gives the charge in dollars for a piece of regular glass whose longest side measures x inches, we can use the given rate.
If we assume the charge is a constant rate per inch, the quadratic function can be written as follows:
g(x) = ax² + c
Where:
a is the rate per inch and c is any fixed cost.
If we assume the rate is $0.75 per inch, the quadratic function can be written as:
g(x)=0.75x² + c
The value of c would depend on any additional fixed costs associated with the glass. If no additional fixed costs are given, c would be 0.
