A botanist is using two types of plants for an experiment. She writes inequalities to model the constraints on the number of eac

h type of plant she can use. She uses linear programming to find the vertex of the feasible region that results in the minimum value, in dollars, of the cost function. If that vertex is (5, 39), what do the coordinates represent

Answer:

The coordinates represent the numbers of plants of each type she can use and minimize the cost

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x -----> the number of plants of one type

y ----> the number of plants of the other type

we know that

The vertex of the feasible region that results in the minimum value of the cost function is (5,39)

so

That means ----> Buying 5 of one type of plant and 39 of the other type of plant results in the lowest cost.

therefore

The coordinates represent the numbers of plants of each type she can use and minimize the cost

Diego has 90 songs on his playlist. How may songs are there for each genre
miv72 [106K]

There aren’t enough components to answer this. How many generes are there? For example if there are 5 genres and the songs are evenly distributed, then there would be 18 songs because 90 divided by 5 is 18 but we only know there are 90 songs. I suppose the closest answer would be *90 divided by Y= X*

What are the solutions to 2x^2-3x-5=0
olasank [31]
Well you have to factor first factoring gives you two value that you can multiply and get you a broken down version of that
you can do it two ways using the quadratic formula to factor or if you're really good at factoring just do it mentally (2x-5)(x+1)=0
for the mental way of doing the factors just set both 2x-5 equal to zero and x+1 = to zero
2x-5=0
2x=5
x= 5/2

x+1=0
x=-1

therefore the solutions are x = 5/2,-1
but if you want to learn how to do it mentally and with the quadratic function formula
let me know

Solve the system of equations: y=2x-5. y=x^2-5
VikaD [51]

Answer:

(0, -5) and (2, -1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Since both equations have already been solved for y, the substitution method is the easiest approach here.  Set the two equations equal to each other:

y = 2x - 5 = x^2 - 5 = y

Focusing on the variable x only, we get 2x - 5 = x^2 - 5.

Adding 5 to both sides results in 2x = x^2.

Factoring this result, we get x(2 - x)  = 0, whose solutions are

x = 0 and x = 2.

Now find the corresponding y-values:

If x = 0, then y = 2(0) -5, or y = -5;

If x = 2, then y = 2(2) - 5, or y = -1

Writing the solutions as coordinate pairs:  (0, -5) and (2, -1)

Moving company A charges you a flat rate of $30, plus $1 for every mile you move. Moving company B charges you a flat rate of $2
Westkost [7]

Answer: 10 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Company A:

Flat rate = $30

Charge per mile = $1

Company B:

Flat rate = $20

Charge per mile = $2

Let x = number of miles

Company A total :

30 + x

Company B total :

20 + 2x

Miles needed To get the same total :

30 + x = 20 + 2x

30 - 20 = 2x - x

10 = x

Hence, 10 miles will be moved
