You can only cut down a integer number of trees. So you might look at a few integer values for x. As x get large the –x4 term dominates the expression for big losses. x = 0 is easy P(x) = -6. Without cutting any trees you have lost money Put x = 1 and you get for the terms in order -1 + 1 + 7 -1 -6 = 0. So P(x) crosses zero just before you cut the first tree. So you make a profit on only 1 tree. However when x=10 you are back into no profit. So compute a few values for x = 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9.
The equation is <span>y = -x + 2</span>
Answer:
Occam’s razor theory.
Step-by-step explanation:
This theory is known as Occam’s razor theory.
It's a theory based on the principle whereby we give precedence to simplicity. It states that out of two competing theories, the one with the simpler explanation of an object should be embraced over the other. The reason is that the philosopher William of Ockham said that "objects are not meant to be multiplied beyond absolute necessity.”
This definition resonates with what is explained in the question.
Thus, the theory is as explained.
First of all we have to arrange the data in ascending order as shown below:
28, 40, 43, 43, 45, 50, 50
Total number of values = 7
Since the number of values is odd, the median will be the middle value i.e. 4th value which is 43. Median divides the data in two halves:
1st Half = 28, 40, 43
2nd Half = 45, 50, 50
Q1 or the First Quartile is the middle value of the lower or 1st half which is 40.
Q3 or the Third Quartile is the middle value of the upper or second half, which is 50.
IQR or the Inter Quartile Range is the difference of Q3 and Q1.
So, IQR= Q3 – Q1 = 50 – 40 = 10
Thus, IQR for the given data is 10
Actually, i think something is missing here:
You need either a parenthesis or some dots at the end to determine this. A repeating decimal can have one repreating digit:
0.(7): 0.777777...
two:
0.(45): 0.45454545454545....
or more: so potentially all of them can be repeating, even a!
it could be: 1.(111114)
or: 1.111114111114111114111114111114111114111114111114111114111114111114111114111114...
proably B. is the most typical of repeating decimals (choosed this one if you have to), but in reality, you need more information... did you copy the question exactly?
