Answer:

195 Trees

Step-by-step explanation:

2/3 is just 2 of 3 parts

2 parts of the trees is 130,

so divide 130 by 2, and that's 65.

Since you know 65 + 65 is the same as 2 out of 3

Then just add 65 one more time to equal 195.

Since, 65*3 is the same as saying 1 * 3 parts

130 is equal to 2/3, so 195 is equal to 3/3.

195.

set this up as a proportion with 2/3 = 130/x
130 x 3 = 390
390 / 2 = 195

-2x+15y=24 2x+9y=24, what is the value of x and y
kaheart [24]
Eliminate x's by adding te 2 equations

add them

-2x+15y=24
<u>2x+9y=24 +</u>
0x+24y=48

24y=48
divide both sides by 24
y=2

sub back

2x+9y=24
2x+9(2)=24
2x+18=24
minus 18 both sides
2x=6
divide 2
x=3


x=3
y=2

Explain why the graph of the equation g(x)=-(x+1)^2-3 would be a parabola opening downward.
otez555 [7]

g(x) = -(x + 1)^2 - 3

Let's simplify this equation

g(x) = -(x^2 + 2x + 1) - 3

Distribute the negative sign

g(x) = -x^2 - 2x + 1 - 3

Combine like terms

g(x) = -x^2 - 2x - 2

The value of a = -2 and this value is LESS THAN 0

Find two positive real numbers whose product is a maximum. the sum is 80
Eduardwww [97]
Let's say the numbers are "a" and "b"

thus \bf y=ab\qquad &#10;\begin{cases}&#10;a+b=80\\&#10;b=80-a&#10;\end{cases}\implies y=a(80-a)\implies y=80a-a^2\\\\&#10;-----------------------------\\\\&#10;\cfrac{dy}{da}=80-2a

set the derivative to 0, and check the critical points, there's only one anyway

and do a first-derivative test, to see if it's a maximum

Determine the range of the function graphed below.<br> Answer choices are below as well
Softa [21]

Answer:

The range of the function will be (- ∞, 4].

Step-by-step explanation:

See the graph attached.

Here we have to get the range of the graphed function.

The value of y in the graphed function varies in the range of less than or equal to 4.

Because the graph of the function does not move beyond 4 towards +∞.

Therefore, the range of the function will be (- ∞, 4]. (Answer)
