10. The art class has been asked to design the stage set for the school play. George and Thomas were assigned to create a backdrop of a boat dock. To add dimension to their setting, they decided to create crates to sit in front of the backdrop. George created Crate A with a height of 24 inches, a width of 15 inches, and a length of 15 inches.
Thomas created Crate B by multiplying the width and length of Crate A by a scale factor of 2/ 3.
By what factor must Thomas multiply the height of crate a so that crate a will have the same volume as crate b ?

First locate the turning point (vertex) of the graph. which is at the coordinates x=5 and y=9 or (5; 9).to determine whether it's a maximum or mininum value, you have to discern whether the vertex's y-value is the highest value or lowest value the graph can reach. since the vertex's y-value, 9 is the highest value the graph can reach, it will be a maximum.another basic way to determine whether the vertex's value is max or min is to see if the graph is smiling or sad. if it's smiling, the turning point/vertex would be a minimum, while a sad parabola would have a maximum y-value at the vertex.
