The question you asked uses the concept of division, something that a bit tricky at first but gets easier as you master it!

So first let’s write and equation for your problem:

Let x = the amount of calories she burns each hour.

So we already know that Vivi was drumming for 3 hours, that she burned 756 calories, and that she burned the same amount of calories each hour.

Since she burned 756 calories in total, we know that the equation will have to equal 756:

= 756

We also know that the answer will be 3(hours) times x(the amount of calories), so now we just plug it into the equation:

3x = 756

To find what ‘x’ equals we have to divide both side by 3:

3x/3 = 756/3

Now all we have to do is simplify and you have your answer!

x = 252

And there you have it, Vivi burned 25 calories per hour!

Hope this helps! :)

A home gardener estimates that 18 apple trees will produce an average yield of 80 apples per tree. But because of the size of th

19 trees should be planted to maximize the total

<h3>How many trees should be planted to maximize the total</h3>

From the question, we have the following parameters:

Number of apples, x = 18

Yield, f(x) = 80 per tree

When the number of apple trees is increased (say by x).

We have:

Trees = 18 + x

The yield decreases by four apples per tree.

So, we have

Yield = 80 - 4x

So, the profit function is

P(x) = Apples * Yield

This gives

P(x) = (18 + x) *(80 - 4x)

Expand the bracket

P(x) = 1440 - 72x + 80x - 4x^2

Differentiate the function

P'(x) = 0 - 72 + 80 - 8x

Evaluate the like terms

P'(x) = 8 - 8x

Set P'(x) to 0

8 - 8x = 0

Divide through by 8

1 - x = 0

Solve for x

x = 1

Recall that:

Trees = 18 + x

So, we have

Trees = 18 + 1

Evaluate

Trees = 19

Hence, 19 trees should be planted to maximize the total

The population of Algebraville is 500,000 and growing at 6.25%. How many people will live in Algebraville in 10 years? 20?

otez555 [7]

This would be exponential growth
A= 500,000(1+.0625)^10
=500,000(1.0625)^10
=500,000* <span>1.83353577126
the population after 10 years= </span><span>916,767
A=500,000(1+.0625)^20
=500,000(1.0625)^20
=500,000* 3.36185342451
the population after 20 years would be= </span><span>1,680,926</span>

Those who have taken the Algebra EOC please answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

To me yes.

Algebra is mostly memorization. If you know the formulas and know how to apply it, you should do good.

I say use this. Algebra topics are like building on top each other.

Heart of Algebra:

Review what the purpose of x in algebra.
Then learn things like combining like terms, and solving for x.
Since you know the basics of x, you can then review linear equations( imo, a big content of algebra). Stuff like slope, different linear forms, graphs of linear equations, and mostly linear equation word problems
Then you can review system of equations. since you know how to manipulate linear equations, etc.

Then move on to other algebra topics dealing with algebra like

functions, and different types of them
exponents, and radicals rules
inequalities.
sequences.
These aren't the heart of algebra but study them they are useful and it important to know them.

Since you learned different function rules, we can move on to learning exponetial functions, graphs, and word problems.

Then finally, learn most hard thing in Algebra: Quadratics.

Pratice,practice, and practice and you will pass.

Try to memorize the formulas and know when to apply it.

Good Luck
