Sample space would be:
(H,H), (H,T), (T,T), (T,H)
Here I have used H for heads and T for Tails... first coin for penny second for nickel...ok
Did you understand???
Answer:
The amount one locust eats in a week is 420/30 = 14 grams so it eats 14/7 = 2 grams per day, therefore 21 locusts can eat 21 * 14 = 42 grams per day. 420 / 42 = 10 so the answer is 10 days or 1 week and 3 days.
We are told that y varies directly with x.
Therefore
y = k*x
where
k = the constant of variation
The given table and the ratio of k=y/x is shown below.
x y k
--- ------ --------
6 10 1.667
9 15 1.667
12 20 1.667
15 25 1.667
Answer:
k = 1.667
y = 1.667x
A, D, E and F are all true statements.
When looking for congruence in these type of problems, you have to look for the order of the letters in the original listing. Since they are listed LMN and PQR, this means we have to focus on the placement of those letters. Since L is the first listed in the sequence, it is congruent with P, which is also listed first. M is congruent with Q since they are both in the middle, and N and R are congruent since they are both at the end.
Now to find true statements, you need to make sure everything matches up in the statement.
Let's take A for instance. It states that MN = QR. Now we know M is in the middle and N is at the end. Since Q is in the middle and R is at the end, they match and are therefore true.
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.
