The function f(x) = 0.4x2 – 36x + 1000 models the number
of accidents, f(x), per 50 million miles driven as a function of
a driver's age, x, in years, for drivers from ages 16 through 74,
inclusive. The graph of f is shown. Use the equation for f to solve
Exercises 45–48.

45. Find and interpret f(20). Identify this information as a
point on the graph of f.
46. Find and interpret f(50). Identify this information as a
point on the graph of f.
47. For what value of x does the graph reach its lowest point?
Use the equation for f to find the minimum value of y.
Describe the practical significance of this minimum value.
48. Use the graph to identify two different ages for which drivers
have the same number of accidents. Use the equation for f
to find the number of accidents for drivers at each of these
ages.
