Answer:
16428 oranges
Explanation:
Total yield = number of trees × number of oranges in each tree
Initial yield = 600×24= 14400 oranges
To find the equation needed, let x = additional trees and y= total yield
Number of trees = 24 +x
Number of oranges in each tree = 600-12x
Equation of total yield y= (24+x)(600-12x)
y= 14400-288x+600x-12x²
y= -12x²+312x+14400
Using a graphing calculator, from the graph drawn for this quadratic equation, we notice that it is a parabola. Therefore to find the maximum value, we should find the maximum point which is at the vertex of the parabola, we use the formula x= -b/2a
A quadratic equation is such: ax²+bx+c
Therefore x =-312/2×-12
x= -312/-24
x= 13
So we can conclude that in order to maximise oranges from the trees, the person needs to plant an additional 13 trees. Substituting from the above:
24+x=24+13= 37 trees in total
y= -12x²+312x+14400= -12×13²+312×13+14400= -2028+4056+14400
=16428 oranges in total yield
Answer: the second one
Step-by-step explanation:
Yes. A triangle with three sides given can be cut out.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
we want y by itself...sooo
y - 19 = - 
(x - (-5))
y - 19 = - (x+5)
y - 19 = - x - 
y = - x - 3 +19
y = - x + 16
Answer:
13) 25 and 17
14) cupcakes = $5
brownies = $3
Step-by-step explanation:
13) you can set this up as equations
so x + y = 42
x-y = 8
solve simultaneously by subtracting from each other
2y = 34
y= 17
if y = 17
42 - 17 = 25 = x
14) set up as equations again
Ben 7c + 10b = 65
franklin 7c +7b = 56
subtract from eachother
3b = 9
b = $3
7c + 10(3) = 65
7c = 35
c = $5
