Math Problem Statement

g(p)= 3p (4-5p)

Solution

The given function is:

g(p)=3p(45p)g(p) = 3p(4 - 5p)

We can expand this expression by applying the distributive property:

g(p)=3p43p5pg(p) = 3p \cdot 4 - 3p \cdot 5p

g(p)=12p15p2g(p) = 12p - 15p^2

Thus, the expanded form of the function is:

g(p)=15p2+12pg(p) = -15p^2 + 12p

Would you like further details on this, or do you have any questions?

Here are some related questions for practice:

  1. What is the derivative of g(p)g(p)?
  2. What are the roots of g(p)=0g(p) = 0?
  3. What is the value of g(p)g(p) when p=1p = 1?
  4. How would the function behave as pp increases indefinitely?
  5. What is the vertex of the parabola formed by g(p)=15p2+12pg(p) = -15p^2 + 12p?

Tip: When working with functions, expanding them makes it easier to analyze their behavior and properties like roots, turning points, and end behavior.
