Answer:

more than one variable (two or more)

Explanation:

Literal equations are used to represent a known quantity/value using unknown values.

Now, if we have only one variable, then this variable will no longer be unknown as it will be equal to the known quantity. This means that the equation will not be literal.

Example:

Number of tickets is 25.

x = 25 where x is the number of tickets

If we have two variable, neither of them will be known. This means that the equation will be literal.

Example:

Number of apples added to number of bananas is 15.

x + y = 15

where x is the number of apples and y is the number of bananas, neither of them is known.

Based on the above, the literal equation must have more than one variable (two or more)

Hope this helps :)

Answer – Two or more variables (In other words, More than one variable)

In simple terms, literal equations are equations containing two or more variables; at least one independent variable and one dependent variable. In essence, all literal equations have more than one variable.

Sara Blake's grandmother gave her $3000.00 to save for college. She put it in a savings account that earns 6% interest per year.

zubka84 [21]

I assume you are looking for the total. The total amount in the account will be $4,781.54 if the interest is compounded annually.

If she is earning 6% interest, the balance in her account will be multiplied by 1.06 each year.

You can evaluate the following expression to find the total.
$3000(1.06)^8 = 4781.54$

An apple orchard has an average yield of 36 bushels of apples per tree if tree density is 26 trees per acre. For each unit incre

Rama09 [41]

Answer:

4 trees per acre

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

The original number of apples per tree = 36 bushels,

Original density of a tree = 26 per acre,

Since, for each decrease in tree density, the yield increases by 2 bushels per tree.

Let x be the number of units decreased in tree density,

So, new density = 26 - x,

New number of apples = 36 + 2x

Thus, the total yield would be,

P(x) = Number of apples per tree × density of a tree

⇒ P(x) = (26 - x)(36 + 2x)

⇒ P(x) = 936 + 52x - 36x - 2x²,

⇒ P(x) = 936 + 16x - 2x²

Differentiating with respect to x,

P'(x) = 16 - 4x

Again differentiating with respect to x,

P''(x) = -4

For maxima or minima,

P'(x) = 0

⇒ 16 - 4x = 0

⇒ -4x = -16

⇒ x = 4

For x = 4, P''(x) = negative,

Hence, 4 trees per acre should be planted to maximize the yield.

What is the possible value for the missing term of the geometric sequence 43,__,2107,...

spayn [35]

Short answer: 301

Long answer: The definition of a "Geometric Sequence" is available, for instance, at http://www.mathsisfun.com/algebra/sequences-sums-geometric.html : "In a Geometric Sequence each term is found by multiplying the previous term by a constant."

In this case, you are given the first term (43), and the third term (2107) and you have one missing term, specifically the second term. If you divide the third term (2107) by the first term (43) then you get 49. And you know that 49 = 7 * 7. So, you reach the conclusion that you can multiply the first term (43) by 7 to get to the missing term and that you can multiply that missing term again by 7 to get to the third term (2107). That satisfies our "Geometric Sequence" requirement that each term is multiplied by a constant (the constant is 7, in this case).

So, if you multiply 43 by 7, you get 301 (the missing second term). And if you multiplied 301 again by 7 then you would get to the third term that was given in the question (2107).
