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

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
The measure of the angles:
24° and 66°
Step-by-step explanation:
Complementary angles sum 90°
then:
(3x + 3) + (10x-4) = 90
3x + 10x + 3 - 4 = 90
13x - 1 = 90
13x = 90+1
13x = 91
x = 91/13
x = 7°
then:
3x+3 = 3*7 + 3 = 21+3 = 24°
10x - 4 = 10*7 - 4 = 70 - 4 = 66°
Check:
66° + 24° = 90°

(3x+9)=−2(2x+6)
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

2x+6=−4x+−12
2x+6=−4x−12
Step 2: Add 4x to both sides.
2x+6+4x=−4x−12+4x
6x+6=−12
Step 3: Subtract 6 from both sides.
6x+6−6=−12−6
6x=−18
Step 4: Divide both sides by 6.
