Answer:

C. Quadratic model

Step-by-step explanation:

Determine what type of model best fits the given situation: Farmer Joe has 1,000 bushels of corn to sell. Presently the market price for corn is $5.00 a bushel. He expects the market price to increase by $0.15 per week. For each week he waits to sell, he loses ten bushels due to spoilage. A. none of these B. exponential C. quadratic D. linear

Given:

The quantity of corn Farmer Joe has to sell = 1,000 bushels

The present market price for corn = $5.00 a bushel

The amount by which he expects the market price to rise per week =$0.15

The number of bushels lost to spoilage per week = 10

The price of the corn per bushel with time = 5 + 0.15×t

The amount of corn left with time= 1000 - 10×t

Where;

t = Time in minutes

Value of the corn = Amount of corn left × Price of corn

Value of the corn = (1000 - 10×t) × (5 + 0.15×t)

=(1000-10t) × (5+0.15t)

=5,000 + 150t - 50t - 1.5t²

= -1.5t² +100t + 5000

Value of the corn= -1.5t² +100t + 5000.

It is a quadratic model

1) Mr. Bond can harvest 2 1/3 acres of corn in 1
creativ13 [48]
This is a fairly simple problem to do. Since you already know how many acres of corn can be harvested in a day then just multiply 10.5 (because of that being however many days being harvested) by 2 1/3. 10.5*2 1/3=24.5. Mr. Bond can harvest 24.5 or 24 1/2 acres of corn in 10.5 days.

Can someone please answer this for me i cant figure it out.

<h3>Answer:</h3>

\displaystyle x^{\frac{2}{3}}

<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

The rules of exponents tell you ...

... (a^b)(a^c) = a^(b+c) . . . . . . applies inside parentheses

... (a^b)^c = a^(b·c) . . . . . . . . applies to the overall expression

The Order of Operations tells you to evaluate inside parentheses first. Doing that, you have ...

... x^(4/3)·x^(2/3) = x^((4+2)/3) = x^2

Now, you have ...

... (x^2)^(1/3)

and the rule of exponents tells you to multiply the exponents.

... = x^(2·1/3) = x^(2/3)
