Answer:

2cm of Rainfall

Step-by-step explanation:

When the no. of mosquitoes is the highest the slope of graph will be zero

so if we differentiate this function and equate to zero we can find the rainfall amount that gives maximum number of mosquitoes in centimetres.

m(x)= -x²+4x

differentiate

d(x)/d(m(x))= -2x+4

equate to zero

-2x+4=0

2x=4

x=2

answer: 2 cm of rain

Rama09 [41]

Percent of turn pike is 75% and percent of parkway is 25%.

Solution:

Given, The state of New Jersey makes approximately $1.55 billion annually from tolls of the $1.55 billion

About $\frac{3}{4}$ comes from tolls on the turnpike

Remaining $\frac{1}{4}$ comes from tolls on the parkway

To find the percent of the total revenue from turnpike:

$\begin{array}{l}{\text { Percent of turnpike }=\frac{\text { amount from parkway }}{\text { total revenue }} \times 100} \\\\ {=\frac{\frac{3}{4} \text { of total revenue }}{\text { tot al revenue }} \times 100} \\\\ {=\frac{\frac{3}{4} \times \text { total revenue }}{\text { total revenue }} \times 100} \\\\ {=\frac{3}{4} \times 100=3 \times 25=75 \%}\end{array}$

To find the percent of the total revenue from parkway:

$\begin{array}{l}{\text { Percent of parkway }=\frac{\text { amount from parkway }}{\text { total revenue }} \times 100} \\\\ {=\frac{\frac{1}{4} \text { of total revenue }}{\text { total revenue }} \times 100} \\\\ {=\frac{\frac{1}{4} \times \text { total revenue}}{\text { total revenue }} \times 100} \\\\ {=\frac{1}{4} \times 100=25 \%}\end{array}$

Summarizing the results:

Percent of turn pike is 75%

Percent of parkway is 25%
