6 3/5-2 4/5=?<br> Show how you got the answer
Viktor [21]

Hello there,

Okay so the question is asking us to subtract the two mixed numbers, 6 3/5 - 2 4/5, from each other...

The first step would be to change the mixed numbers to improper fractions:

  • 6 3/5 as improper fraction would be 33/5
  • 2 4/5 as improper fraction would be 14/5

Now we need to make sure that the denominators are the same and in this case they are.

Simply subtract 14 from 33 and you would get 19 and the denominator stays the same so you would get 19/5.

  • Now turn 19/5 into a mixed number and you would get 3 4/5

The answer to the 6 3/5 - 2 4/5 would be 3 4/5.

Hope I helped,

Amna

A home gardener estimates that 24 apple trees will have an average yield of 104 apples per tree. But because of the size of the
d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

The farmer should plant 14 additional trees, for maximum yield.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Trees = 24

Yield = 104

x \to additional\ trees

So, we have:

Trees = 24 + x

Yield = 104 - 2x

Required

The additional trees to be planted for maximum yield

The function is:

f(x) = Trees * Yield

f(x) = (24 + x) * (104 - 2x)

Open bracket

f(x) = 24 * 104 + 104x - 24 * 2x - x * 2x

f(x) = 2796 + 104x - 48x - 2x^2

f(x) = 2796 + 56x - 2x^2

Rewrite as:

f(x) = - 2x^2 + 56x + 2796

Differentiate

f'(x) = -4x + 56

Equate f'(x) = -4x + 56 to 0 and solve for x to get the maximum of x

-4x + 56 = 0

-4x =- 56

Divide by -4

x =14

The farmer should plant 14 additional trees, for maximum yield.
