The path of an object projected at a 45 degree angle with initial velocity of 80 feet per second is given by the function $h(x)=\frac{-32}{{(80)}^2}{x}^2+x$ where $x$ is the horizontal distance traveled and $h\left(x\right)$ is the height in feet. Use the TRACE feature of your calculator to determine the height of the object when it has traveled 100 feet away horizontally.

A suspension bridge can be modeled by the quadratic function $h(x)=.0001x^2$ with $\mathrm{-2000}\le x\le 2000$ where $\left|x\right|$ is the number of feet from the center and $h\left(x\right)$ is height in feet. Use the TRACE feature of your calculator to estimate how far from the center does the bridge have a height of 100 feet.

A soccer stadium holds 62,000 spectators. With a ticket price of $11, the average attendance has been 26,000. When the price dropped to $9, the average attendance rose to 31,000. Assuming that attendance is linearly related to ticket price, what ticket price would maximize revenue?
