Answer:
13
Step-by-step explanation:
1980 = ( n - 2 ) * 180
n - 2 = 11
n = 13
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
Firstly, let's create a function of f(t) where t represents the time that has past, and f(t) represents the amount of rainwater. We know that when t=1, then f(t)=10, and t=2 then f(t)=15. So, let's take that and analyze it:
(1,10)
(2,15)
m = (15-10)/(2-1) = 5
y-intercept = 5
∴ f(t) = 5t+5
Now we just evaluate t for 10:
f(10) = (5*10)+5
f(10) = 55
Answer:
m=3
Step-by-step explanation:
Move the 12 over to the other side so it will be 4m=12, then divide each side by 4 to get m=3
