For what value of x between − 9 and 9, inclusive, is the value of x^2 − 10x + 16 the greatest? Choices:	A) − 9	B) − 2	C) 0	D) 2	E) 9
we can see from the statement that two terms containing x, x^2 will always be positive and -10x will be positive if x is -ive..   so the equation will have greatest value if x is -ive, and lower the value of x, greater is the equation.   so -9 will give the greatest value..   ans − 9
