The owner of an orange grove estimates that if 24 trees are planted per acre, then each mature tree will yield 600 oranges per year. For each additional tree planted per acre, the number of oranges produced by each tree decreases by 12 per year. How many trees should be planted per acre to obtain the most oranges per year

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

16428 oranges

Explanation:

Total yield = number of trees × number of oranges in each tree

Initial yield = 600×24= 14400 oranges

To find the equation needed, let x = additional trees and y= total yield

Number of trees = 24 +x

Number of oranges in each tree = 600-12x

Equation of total yield y= (24+x)(600-12x)

y= 14400-288x+600x-12x²

y= -12x²+312x+14400

Using a graphing calculator, from the graph drawn for this quadratic equation, we notice that it is a parabola. Therefore to find the maximum value, we should find the maximum point which is at the vertex of the parabola, we use the formula x= -b/2a

A quadratic equation is such: ax²+bx+c

Therefore x =-312/2×-12

x= -312/-24

x= 13

So we can conclude that in order to maximise oranges from the trees, the person needs to plant an additional 13 trees. Substituting from the above:

24+x=24+13= 37 trees in total

y= -12x²+312x+14400= -12×13²+312×13+14400= -2028+4056+14400

=16428 oranges in total yield

Answer 2

The number of trees that gives the most yield is 37

The given parameters are:

Trees per acre = 24Yield = 600

Represent the additional number of trees with x.

So, we have:

Trees per acre = 24 + xYield = 600 - 12x

The equation that represents the total yield (y) becomes

[tex]y = (24 + x) \times (600 - 12x)[/tex]

Expand

[tex]y= 14400-288x+600x-12x\²[/tex]

Evaluate the like terms

[tex]y= 14400+312x-12x\²[/tex]

Rewrite as:

[tex]y= -12x\²+312x+14400[/tex]

Differentiate

[tex]y'= -24x+312[/tex]

Set to 0

[tex]-24x+312 = 0[/tex]

Solve for x

[tex]-24x=-312[/tex]

[tex]x=13[/tex]

Recall that:

Trees per acre = 24 + x

This gives

[tex]Trees = 24 + 13[/tex]

[tex]Trees = 37[/tex]

Hence, the number of trees that gives the most yield is 37

solve In 2010, the percentage of assisted living residents who had both heart disease and depression was 9%, the percentage with only heart disease was 25%, and the percentage with either condition was 48%. What percentage of assisted living residents had only depression

Answers

Answer:

The percentage of assisted living residents had only depression

P(D) =0.32

Step-by-step explanation:

Explanation:-

Given  the percentage of assisted living residents who had both heart disease and depression was 9%

Let The event 'H' be the event of heart disease and 'D' be the event of depression

P(H ∩D) = 9% =0.09

The  percentage with only heart disease was 25%

P(H) = 0.25

The percentage with either condition was 48%.

P(H∪D) = 48%=0.48

By addition theorem on probability

       [tex]P(H UD) = P(H) +P(D) - P(H n D)[/tex]

              [tex]0.48 = 0.25 + P(D) -0.09[/tex]

            P(D) = 0.48 -0.16

            P(D) = 0.32  

The percentage of assisted living residents had only depression

P(D) =0.32

What is an equation of the line that passes through the points (4,-2) and (8,3)?​

Answers

Answer:

[tex]y-4=\frac{5}{4} (x+2)[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

First you can find the slope of the line that would pass through those two points using the formula:

m = [tex]\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}[/tex]

m = [tex]\frac{3-(-2)}{8-4}[/tex]

m=5/4

Now you can just plug the slope and one of the points into point-slope form for an equation of the line that will pass through both points. You can choose either point here: I'll just use the first one.

So,

[tex]y-4=\frac{5}{4} (x+2)[/tex]

(don't leave out the parentheses!)

The equation of the line (4,-2) and (8,3) is Y=5/4x-7

Angle a is the smallest

I tried to answer this one and got it wrong the question is “find the measure of each angle indicates”

Answers

Answer:

∠F = 80

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's find inner ∠D first, as you can see, it's a straight line but a line is in between, the outer angle is 120, and a straight line is 180, so 180 - 120 = 60. The inner ∠D is 60, now we can find ∠F, a triangle is 180:

40 + 60 + ∠F = 180

100 +∠D = 180

subtract 100 from both sides

∠F = 80

A cellular phone company charges $67.95 per month for a service plan that includes 6 GB of data. In addition to the basic monthly rate, the company charges $8.95 for each additional GB of data over 6 GB. A customer on this plan receives a bill for $148.50. How much data did this customer send and receive during the month?

Answers

Answer:

The customer send and receive 15 GB of data during the month.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

Monthly charge for 6 GB of data = $67.95

Additional charge for each additional GB of data over 6 GB = $8.95

Bill received by the customer = $148.50

Therefore, we have:

Total amount paid for additional GB of data over 6 GB = Bill received by the customer - Monthly charge for 6 GB of data = $148.50 - $67.95 = $80.55

Additional GB of data over 6 GB = Total amount paid for additional GB of data over 6 GB / Additional charge for each additional GB of data over 6 GB = $80.55 / $8.95 = 9 GB

Total data customer send and receive during the month = 6 GB + Additional GB of data over 6 GB = 6 GB + 9 GB = 15 GB

Therefore, the customer send and receive 15 GB of data during the month.

A carpenter is making a rectangular form for a concrete pad she wants the length of the path to be 11 feet more than the width of the bed the area of the concrete pad must be 80 ft.² write the quadratic equation that will be used to find the dimensions of the pad

Answers

Answer:

Length = 16 or -5 feet.

Width = 5 or -16 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length of the concrete pad = l

Let the width of the concrete pad = w

Given the following data;

Area of concrete pad, a = 80ft²

Translating the word problem into an algebraic equation, we have;

[tex] l = 11 + w[/tex]

We know that, the area of rectangle, A = length * width

[tex] A = l*w[/tex]

Substituting the values into the equation, we have;

[tex] 80 = (11 + w)w[/tex]

Expanding the bracket, we have;

[tex] 80 = 11w + w^{2}[/tex]

[tex] w^{2} + 11w - 80 = 0[/tex]

*Solving the quadratic equation by using factorization method*

[tex] w^{2} + 16w - 5w - 80 = 0[/tex]

[tex] w(w + 16) - 5(w + 16) = 0[/tex]

[tex] (w - 5)(w + 16) = 0 [/tex]

Width, w = 5 feet or w = -16 feet.

Therefore, the width of the concrete pad is 5 feet or -16 feet.

To find its length, l;

[tex] l = 11 + w[/tex]

When w = 5 feet

[tex] l = 11 + 5[/tex]

Length, l = 16 feet

When w = - 16 feet

[tex] l = 11 + (-16)[/tex]

[tex] l = 11 - 16[/tex]

Length, l = -5 feet.

Hence, the dimensions of the concrete pad is 16 by 5 feet or -5 by -16 feet.

8. h= $2.25 c= $1.19 The cost of each hotdog is $2.25, and the cost of each bag of chips is $1.19.

Step-by-step explanation:

7. First lets define the variables: x=first number; y=the second number

Now we set up a system of equations:

Eq. 1. 2x+y=25  Eq. 2. 3x-y=20

Now we solve (I'm going to use subsitution you can use wtv you are comfortable with)

1. 2x+y=25      1. y=25-2x

Subsitute.

2. 3x-y=20       2. 3x- (25-2x)=20

Simplify.

3x-25+2x=20        5x-25=20          5x=45      x=9

Now solve for y by subsituting x into one of the equations.

1. 2x+y=25      2(9)+y=25       18+y=25      y= 7

The first number is 9, and the second number will be 7.

8. Define the variables.

h= cost of a hotdog; c=cost of a bag of chips

System of Equations:

Eq. 1. 5h+3c=14.82 Eq. 2. 7h+6c=22.89

Now solve.

1. 5h+3c=14.82  2. 7h+6c=22.89

Using subsitution...

h=2.25 c=1.19

The cost of each hotdog is $2.25, and the cost of each bag of chips is $1.19.
