A peach orchard owner wants to maximize the amount of peaches produced by her orchard.

Mathematics
1 answer:
qaws [65]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

  a) Y(x) = {900, x≤30; 900-40(x-30), x>30}

  b) T(x) = {900x, x≤30; 2100x-40x², x>30}

  c) dT/dx = {900, x≤30; 2100-80x, x>30}

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The problem statement gives the function for x ≤ 30, and gives an example of evaluating the function for x = 35. So, replacing 35 in the example with x gives the function definition for x > 30.

\displaystyle Y(x)=\left\{\begin{array}{lcl}900&\text{for}&x\le 30\\900-40(x-30)&\text{for}&x>30\end{array}\right.

__

b) The yield per acre is the product of the number of trees and the yield per tree:

  T(x) = x·Y(x)

\displaystyle T(x)=\left \{\begin{array}{lcl}900x&\text{for}&x\le 30\\2100x-40x^2& \text{for}&x>30\end{array}\right.

__

c) The derivative is ...

\displaystyle\frac{dT}{dx}=\left \{\begin{array}{lcl}900&\text{for}&x\le 30\\2100-80x& \text{for}&x>30\end{array}\right.

_____

The attached graph shows the yield per acre (purple, overlaid by red for x<30), the total yield (black), and the derivative of the total yield (red). You will note the discontinuity in the derivative at x=30, where adding one more tree per acre suddenly makes the rate of change of yield be negative.

gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

height = 12 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallelogram 1:

Area =  base *height = 20 * 15 = 300 sq. cm

Area of parallelogram 2 = area of parallelogram 1

25 * height = 300

       height = 300/25

height = 12 cm
