4. A quadratic function has a vertex of ( 3, −27 ) and 6 as one of its x-intercepts. Find the function
in the form, y = ax 2 + bx + c.

6. The value of a gold cabinet t years after its purchase is given by

V ( t ) = −t 2 + 20t + 800

a. Find V ( 5 ) and explain what this represent.

b. Sketch the function. Identify axes intercept, and vertex.

c. Hence, identify when the cabinet’s value is a maximum and state this maximum value.

8. Given the farm ACDB built next to the river where AB is parallel to CD. The farmer has 100
meters of fencing. CD = 3AB. Diagram not to scale.
 a. Find the function that represents the area of the farm in terms of
AB = x.
(Tip: Use area of trapezoid or divide to rectangle and triangle. )

b. Find the length of AB that will maximize that area. Find the area in this case.

grasshoppers is given by hectares, where is the number of weeks after the initial
observation.

a. Find the original affected area.

b. Find the affected area after 12 weeks.

4. The population of turtles in a lake decreases by 7% each year. In 2005 there were 340 turtles in
the lake.

a. Find an exponential model for the number of turtles T in the lake, n years after 2005.

b. Graph your model from a.

c. How many turtles were in the lake in 2010?

e. If the population falls as low as 10,
conservationists will not be able to
save the turtle colony.
According to your model, when will
this occur?
