Question

Using technology, we found that Juan's investment account can be modeled by the function, c(x)=3x2-2x+10, in

thousands of dollars. What was Juan's initial investment?
O $5
o $10
o $5,000
$10,000

Answer 1

$10

Explanation:

"Initial" here means "beginning." That is, time = x = 0. If we let x = 0 here we get c(0) = 10, which is the desired answer. Juan's initial investment was $10.
