Answer:
5 amperes will produce the maximum power
Step-by-step explanation:
The power generated by an electrical circuit (in watts) as a function of its current c (in amperes) is modeled by: P(c)= -12c^2 + 120c.
To find out the maximum power we need to find the vertex
formula to find x -coordinate of vertex is [tex]\frac{-b}{2a}[/tex]
P(c)= -12c^2 + 120c is given in the form of y=ax^2+bx+c
a= -12, b = 120
[tex]c=\frac{-b}{2a}=\frac{-120}{2(-12)}=5[/tex]
c= 5 amperes will produce the maximum power
