Question
The number of lumens (time rate of flow of light) L from a fluorescent lamp can be approximated by the model
L =-0.294x² + 97.744x – 664.875,
20 <x< 90
where x is the wattage of the lamp.
Use a graphing utility to select the graph of the function. Use the graph to estimate the wattage necessary to
obtain 2400 lumens.
