Answer: b. 1 pound


Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Local hospital is making a histogram of the birth weight of babies born in the past year. there were 1023 babies born in the hospital last year. the weights range from 4 lb to 11 lb.

They should use 1 pound scale on the x-axis, which makes easier to to study the histogram. .

because from the given options 1 ounce is one sixteenth of a pound i.e. too small.

4 pounds scale will make total intervals =3 , which will make more difficult to study the histogram.

5 pounds scale is larger than 4 pounds scale, thus it can not be the rquired scale.

jeka94

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A) Let x represent acres of pumpkins, and y represent acres of corn. Here are the constraints:

  x ≥ 2y . . . . . pumpkin acres are at least twice corn acres

  x - y ≤ 10 . . . . the difference in acreage will not exceed 10

  12 ≤ x ≤ 18 . . . . pumpkin acres will be between 12 and 18

  0 ≤ y . . . . . the number of corn acres is non-negative

__

B) If we assume the objective is to maximize profit, the profit function we want to maximize is ...

  P = 360x +225y

__

C) see below for a graph

__

D) The profit for an acre of pumpkins is the highest, so the farmer should maximize that acreage. The constraint on the number of acres of pumpkins comes from the requirement that it not exceed 18 acres. Then additional profit is maximized by maximizing acres of corn, which can be at most half the number of acres of pumpkins, hence 9 acres.

So profit is maximized for 18 acres of pumpkins and 9 acres of corn.

Maximum profit is $360·18 +$225·9 = $8505.
