PROBLEM 1: NUMBER PROBLEM
The sum of two numbers is 14. Determine the maximum product of two

PROBLEM 2: GEOMETRY PROBLEM
What are the dimensions of the largest rectangular field that can be
enclosed by 60 m fencing wire?
Solution: Let l and w be the length and width of the rectangle respectively.
Then the perimeter of the rectangle is P = 2L + 2w
Since P = 60, then we have 2L + 2w = 60; l + w = 30; l = 30 – w
Substituting in the formula for area A of a rectangle.
Area = length x width
Area = (30 – w)(w) 30w – w2-; a = -1; b = 30,
Since the area is a function of w, so we have, 𝑤 =
−𝑏
2𝑎
; 𝑤 = 15 𝑚; 𝑙 = 30 − 𝑤 = 15 𝑚
Thus, the length should be 15 m and width should be 15 m. The rectangle that gives the
maximum area is a square with an area of 225 sq. m.

(measured in feet), at any given time after the ball is
thrown, t (measured in seconds), can be modeled using the
quadratic function h(t) = -16t2 + 16t + 32.

b) How many seconds after the ball was thrown did it reach
its maximum height?

PROBLEM 3: PROJECTILE PROBLEM
• A ball is thrown into the air. Its height above the ground, h
(measured in feet), at any given time after the ball is thrown,
t (measured in seconds), can be modeled using the quadratic
function h(t) = -16t2 + 16t + 32.
a) From what height above the ground was the ball thrown?
Solution:
Assume that t = 0, h(0) = -16(0)2 + 16(0) + 32 = 32
Thus, the ball was thrown 32 ft above the ground.

PROBLEM 3: PROJECTILE PROBLEM
• A ball is thrown into the air. Its height above the
ground, h (measured in feet), at any given time after
the ball is thrown, t (measured in seconds), can be
modeled using the quadratic function h(t) = -16t2 +
16t + 32.
b) How many seconds after the ball was thrown did it reach its
maximum height?
Solution: Use t = -b/2a
t = -16/-2(-16)
t = 0.5 seconds
Thus, the ball reaches its maximum height one-half
second after it is thrown into the air.

PROBLEM 3: PROJECTILE PROBLEM
A ball is thrown into the air. Its height above the ground, h
(measured in feet), at any given time after the ball is
thrown, t (measured in seconds), can be modeled using the
quadratic function h(t) = -16t2 + 16t + 32.
c) What was the ball's maximum height?
Solution:
h(0.5) = -16(-0.5)2 + 16(0.5) + 32
h = 36
Thus, the maximum height of the ball reached was
36 ft. above the ground.

PROBLEM 3: PROJECTILE PROBLEM
• A ball is thrown into the air. Its height above the ground, h
(measured in feet), at any given time after the ball is
thrown, t (measured in seconds), can be modeled using the
quadratic function h(t) = -16t2 + 16t + 32.
d) When did the ball hit the ground?
0 = -16t2 + 16t + 32
Solution:
0 = -16(t2 – t – 2)
0 = t2 – t – 2
0 = t – 2; 0 = t + 1
0 = (t – 2)(t + 1)
Thus, the ball hit the ground after 2 seconds.

PROBLEM 4: BUSINESS PROBLEM
• The profit (in thousands of pesos) of a company is given by.
P(x) = 5000 + 1000 x - 5x2
where x is the amount ( in thousands of pesos) the company
spends on advertising.
a) Find the amount, x, that the company has to spend to
maximize its profit.
b) Find the maximum profit P(max).

PROBLEM 4: BUSINESS PROBLEM
• The profit (in thousands of dollars) of a company is given by.
P(x) = 5000 + 1000x - 5x2
where x is the amount ( in thousands of dollars) the company spends on
advertising.
a) Find the amount, x, that the company has to spend
Solution: Function P that gives the profit is a quadratic function with the
leading coefficient a = - 5.
This function (profit) has a maximum value at
x = h = - b / (2a)
x = h = -1000 / (2(-5)) = 100
Thus, the company has to spend 100 thousand pesos
to maximize its profit.

APPLICATIONS
PROBLEM 4: BUSINESS PROBLEM
• The profit (in thousands of dollars) of a company is given by.
P(x) = 5000 + 1000 x - 5 x2
where x is the amount ( in thousands of dollars) the company
spends on advertising.
b) Find the maximum profit Pmax.
Solution:
P(100) = 5000 + 1000 (100) – 5(100)2
P(100) = 55000
Thus, the company’s maximum profit is ₱55,000.

NON-ROUTINE PROBLEMS IN QUADRATIC FUNCTIONS
If y = a(x – 2)2 + c and y=(2x – 5)(x – b)
represent the same quadratic
function, determine the numerical
value of b?
PROBLEM 5: NON-ROUTINE PROBLEM

NON-ROUTINE PROBLEMS IN QUADRATIC FUNCTIONS
Solutions:
PROBLEM 5: NON-ROUTINE PROBLEM
We expand the two functions.
First, y = a(x - 2)2 + c
= ax2 – 4ax + (4a + c)
Second, y = (2x – 5)(x – b) = 2x2 – (5 + 2b)x + 5b
Equate the coefficients,
ax2 – 4ax + 4a + c = 2x2 – (5 + 2b)x + 5b
So, a = 2.
From the coefficient of x, 4a = 5 + 2b; since a = 2, then b =
3
2
.
Thus, the numerical value of b =
3
2
.
