The yield in bushels from a grove of orange trees is given by Y = x(600 − x), where x is the number of orange trees per acre. How many trees will maximize the yield?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

90000

Step-by-step explanation:

Y = x(600 - x)

Let's rearrange the equation so that we have

Y = x(-x + 600)

Y = -x² + 600

When you take a look at parabolas, we know that their maximum or minimum values are usually on the axis of symmetry. This axis of symmetry has an equation of

x = -b/2a,

In this question, the axis of symmetry is

x = -600 / -2

x = 300

This means that planting 300 trees will maximize your yield. If you substitute for x = 300 into the equation, the maximum yield will be

y = 300 (600 - 300)

y = 90000.

Answer 2

Answer: 300

Step-by-step explanation:

use the formula X=-b/2a

x=-600/-2

x=300

Suppose that Haley encounter two traffic lights on her commute to GGC campus. Based on

her past experience, she judge that the probability is 0.35 that the first light will be red when she gets to it,

0.45 that the second light will be red, and 0.20 that both lights will be red. Let R1 denote the event that the

first light is red, and let R2 denote the event that the second light is red.

a) Determine the probability that at least one light will be red. (Show how you calculate this.)

b) Determine the conditional probability that the second light will be red given that the first light is

red. (Show how you calculate this.)

c) Are the events R1 and R2 independent? Justify your answer numerically.

d) Are the events R1 and R2 disjoint (mutually exclusive)? Justify your answer numerically.

Answers

Answer:

Explained below.

Step-by-step explanation:

The information provided is,

P (R₁) = 0.35

P (R₂) = 0.45

P (R₁ ∩ R₂) = 0.20

(a)

Compute the probability that at least one light will be red as follows:

P (at least one light will be red) = P (R₁ ∪ R₂)

                                                    = P (R₁) + P (R₂) - P (R₁ ∩ R₂)

                                                    = 0.35 + 0.45 - 0.20

                                                    = 0.60

Thus, the probability that at least one light will be red is 0.60.

(b)

Compute the conditional probability that the second light will be red given that the first light is red as follows:

[tex]P(R_{2}|R_{1})=\frac{P(R_{1}\cap R_{2})}{P(R_{1})}[/tex]

                [tex]=\frac{0.20}{0.35}\\\\=0.571428\\\\\approx 0.57[/tex]

Thus, the conditional probability that the second light will be red given that the first light is red is 0.57.

(c)

If two events, say A and B are independent then:

P (A|B) = P (A).

The value of P (R₂ | R₁) = 0.57.

And the value of P (R₂) = 0.45

P (R₂ | R₁) ≠ P (R₂)

Thus, the events R₁ and R₂ are not independent.

(d)

If two events, say A and B are mutually exclusive then:

P (A ∩ B) = 0

The value of P (R₁ ∩ R₂) = 0.20.

Thus, the events R₁ and R₂ are not mutually exclusive.

С

C. An increase of 20%

Step-by-step explanation:

a. Every increase in coral growth of one centimeter will result in an average of 5.25 fewer degrees Celsius of sea surface temperature per year.
b. Every increase in coral growth of one centimeter will result in an average of 5.25 more degrees Celsius of sea surface temperature per year.
c. Every increase in sea surface temperature of one degree Celsius will result in an average of 0.1578 more centimeters of coral growth per year.
d. Every increase in sea surface temperature of one degree Celsius will result in an average of 0.1578 fewer centimeters of coral growth per year.

Answers

Data for the question :

Sea surface temperature 26.7 26.6 26.6 26.5 26.3 26.1

Growth 0.85 0.85 0.79 0.86 0.89 0.92

Answer:

d. Every increase in sea surface temperature of one degree Celsius will result in an average of 0.1578 fewer centimeters of coral growth per year.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data :

Surface Temperature (X) : 26.7 26.6 26.6 26.5 26.3 26.1

Growth (Y) : 0.85 0.85 0.79 0.86 0.89 0.92

Using a regression calculator, we can find the model equation and extract the slope :

The regression equation obtained is :

y=5.039-0.1578x

From y = mx + c

Where m = gradient or slope

c = intercept

x and y are predictor and predicted variables respectively.

Hence, the gradient or slope (m) of the model = - 0.157. We have a negative slope, hence, increase in x will result una decrease in y.

The slope thus means: for every 1 degree increase in sea surface temperature (x), there is an average decline of about 0.1578 cm in growth per year.

At 7:00 one Summer morning Harry and Hermione hopped into their speedy more motorboat and left Hogwarts dock. They arrived at Dumbledore Wharf 35 minutes later. During the busy summer months a car ferry departs from Dumbledore wharf every five minutes. Tourists crowd onto the ferry for the 55 minute ride to Hogswarts dock. If Harry and Hermione followed the route that the car ferries take, how many car ferries did they see on their trip?

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  19

Step-by-step explanation:

If we assume that the car ferries start at or before 6:05, and each 5 minutes thereafter, and if we count the ferries at the dock on either end, the total number seen is the number of ferries encountered in ...

  55 +35 = 90 . . . minutes

That is, it is the number already in transit when they leave, plus the number that start while they are traveling.

That's 90/5 +1* = 19 ferries.

_____

The attached diagram can give an idea. Each up-sloping line represents a ferry in-transit. The left side is Dumbledore Wharf; the right side is Hogwarts dock. Each horizontal unit represents the distance traveled by a ferry in 5 minutes. Each vertical unit represents a 5-minute interval.

The down-sloping line represents the motorboat travel. The dots at either end of the latter line represent car ferries that are at the dock, just arriving or just-departing. Altogether, there are 17 places where the lines cross, in addition to the boats at the docks.

__

* the +1 is because the number of points defining intervals is 1 more than the number of intervals.

What does it mean to divide a number by

Step-by-step explanation:

For example:

Lets say we wanted to divide 8 by 3/4

8÷[tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex]

Change the division symbol into multiplication, and flip over the fraction (a great way to remember doing this is to remember the phrase Copy Dot Flip - Copy the first digit as it is, put a dot for multiplication, and then flip the fraction over)

8 ·[tex]\frac{4}{3}[/tex]

20x+x-2=4 rational equation​

Answers

Answer:

x = 2/7

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Write equation

20x + x - 2 = 4

Step 2: Solve for x

Combine like terms: 21x - 2 = 4Add 2 to both sides: 21x = 6Divide both sides by 21: x = 6/21Simplify: x = 2/7

Step 3: Check

Plug in x to verify it's a solution.

20(2/7) + 2/7 - 2 = 4

40/7 + 2/7 - 2 = 4

42/7 - 2 = 4

6 - 2 = 4

4 = 4

Answer:

x = 2/7

Step-by-step explanation:

Collect like terms:

20x + x = 21x ----> 21x - 2= 4

Move the constant to the right hand side and change the sign of the constant:

21x = 4 + 2

Calculate:

21x = 4 + 2 ---> 21x = 6

Divide both sides by 21:

21/21 and 6/21 = 2/7

Solution:

x = 2/7 or x= 0.285714

You are playing a video game. For each diamond you collect, you earn 110 points. You also earn 80 bonus points by completing the level in less than 2 minutes. You need to earn more than 1620 points to continue on to the next level. Write and solve an inequality that represents the numbers d of diamonds you must collect in less than 2 minutes to advance to the next level.

Answers

Answer:

110d + 80 > 1620

d > 14

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount of points from collecting diamonds can be represented by 110d, since you get 110 points for each diamond, d

Add 80 to this to represent the bonus points.

Use a greater than inequality, because you have to get more than 1620 points.

Put this all together:

110d + 80 > 1620

Then, solve for d:

110d + 80 > 1620

110d > 1540

d > 14

So, you have to collect more than 14 diamonds in less than 2 minutes in order to advance to the next level.
