Answer:

The farmer should expect to LOSE 10 pounds of soybeans per acre per year

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x)=-x^2 + 20x + 100

just find how many soybeans his land will yield (per acre) after 10 and 20 years:

After 10: 200 pounds of soybeans/acre

After 20: 100 pounds of soybeans/acre

Because 10 years have passed and they lost 100 pounds of soybean production per acre, the farmer should expect to lose 10 pounds of soybeans per acre per year (-10 pounds of soybeans per acre/year)

Answer: (X-3)^4

Step-by-step explanation:

To shift a function left, add inside the function's argument: f (x + b) gives f (x)shifted b units to the left. Shifting to the right works the same way; f (x – b) is f (x) shifted b units to the right.

Therefore, the equation is F(x) = G(x-3) = (X-3)^4

The volume formula is area of base×height. In this case, we are working with rectangles, so the formula is l×w×h. We have to find the volume of each block and add them together. Top rectangle: 12×30×4=1440. Middle rectangle: 30×36×4=4320. Bottom rectangle: 30×60×4=7200. 7200+4320+1440=12960 inches squared.
