Answer:  800 feet²

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets remove the brackets from the function's expression

A(x) = -2x²+80x

So we got the quadratic function and we have to find the x that corresponds to function's maximum. Let it be X max

As we know Xmax= (X1+X2)/2 , where X1 and X2 are the roots of the function A(x)

Lets find X1 and X2

x(80-2x)=0

x1=0   80-2*X2=0

x2=40

So Xmax= (0+40)/2=20

So Amax= A(20)= 20*(80-2*20)=20*40=800 feet²

Please help im getting frustrated with these
Ne4ueva [31]
Look at the remaining trees and the number of oranges they produced.
41790 oranges were produced.
Each tree produced 210 oranges.
The number of remaining trees is 41790/210.
Originally, there we 5 more trees.
The original number of trees is 41790/210 + 5

The equation is
t = 41790/210 + 5

Now we evaluate the right side.
t = 199 + 5
t = 204

The original number of orange trees is 204,

I'm not sure of my answer I know that you have to multiply diagonally then add or subtract I'm not sure.

-18(1) = -18,right? 

4(3) = 12, right? 

-18 - 12 = -30

From the looks of it, we had to "Subtract" the outcome of each problem that we went over 

You're correct: -30 (option A.) would be your answer

find h and k such that the equation 3x^2 -hx +4k =0, so that the sum of the solutions is -12 and the product of the solutions is
Radda [10]
Let the solutions be a and b.
a = -2; b = -10
a + b = -2 + (-10) = -12
ab = (-2)(-10) = 20

(x - a)(x - b) = 0

(x - (-2))(x - (-10)) = 0

(x + 2)(x + 10) = 0

x^2 + 10x + 2x + 20 = 0

x^2 + 12x + 20 = 0

-h = 12

h = -12

4k = 20

k = 5
