Answer:
a) Y(x) = {900, x≤30; 900-40(x-30), x>30}
b) T(x) = {900x, x≤30; 2100x-40x², x>30}
c) dT/dx = {900, x≤30; 2100-80x, x>30}
Step-by-step explanation:
a) The problem statement gives the function for x ≤ 30, and gives an example of evaluating the function for x = 35. So, replacing 35 in the example with x gives the function definition for x > 30.
__
b) The yield per acre is the product of the number of trees and the yield per tree:
T(x) = x·Y(x)
__
c) The derivative is ...
_____
The attached graph shows the yield per acre (purple, overlaid by red for x<30), the total yield (black), and the derivative of the total yield (red). You will note the discontinuity in the derivative at x=30, where adding one more tree per acre suddenly makes the rate of change of yield be negative.
Answer:
Step 1: Transpose everything to one side
12. x²+16x+15-10x+4=0
Step 2: Add the like terms
x² + (16x - 10x) + 15 + 4=0
x² + 6x + 19=0
Step 3: Use the quadratic formula to get the value(s) of x.
a=1 b=6 c=19
therefore, x=... or x
