Amelia runs a farm stand that sells strawberries and peaches. Each pound of strawberries sells for $1 and each pound of peaches

sells for $4. Amelia sold 3 times as many pounds of peaches as pounds of strawberries and she made $182 altogether. Determine the number of pounds of strawberries sold and the number of pounds of peaches sold.

Answer:

<u><em>14 pounds of strawberries and 42 pounds of peaches are sold</em></u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose the pounds of strawberries sold are x and pounds of peaches sold are y. then

$182= x(1) + y(4)--------A

or 182= x(1) +3x(4)------- B

182=x+12x

182/13=x

x=14

Answer: the number of pounds of strawberries sold is 14 pounds and the number of pounds of peaches sold is 42 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of pounds of strawberries sold.

Let y represent the number of pounds of peaches sold.

Amelia sold 3 times as many pounds of peaches as pounds of strawberries. This means that

y = 3x

Each pound of strawberries sells for $1 and each pound of peaches sells for $4. She made $182 altogether. This means that

x + 4y = 182 - - - - - - - - - - 1

Substituting y = 3x into equation 1, it becomes

x + 4×3x = 182

x + 12x = 182

13x = 182

x = 182/13 = 14

y = 3x = 3×14 = 42

Calculus graph please help
tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

See Below.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the graph of <em>y</em> = f'(x) and we want to determine the characteristics of f(x).

Part A)

<em>f</em> is increasing whenever <em>f'</em> is positive and decreasing whenever <em>f'</em> is negative.

Hence, <em>f</em> is increasing for the interval:

(-\infty, -2) \cup (-1, 1)\cup (3, \infty)

And <em>f</em> is decreasing for the interval:

\displaystyle (-2, -1) \cup (1, 3)

Part B)

<em>f</em> has a relative maximum at <em>x</em> = <em>c</em> if <em>f'</em> turns from positive to negative at <em>c</em> and a relative minimum if <em>f'</em> turns from negative to positive to negative at <em>c</em>.

<em>f'</em> turns from positive to negative at <em>x</em> = -2 and <em>x</em> = 1.

And <em>f'</em> turns from negative to positive at <em>x</em> = -1 and <em>x</em> = 3.

Hence, <em>f</em> has relative maximums at <em>x</em> = -2 and <em>x</em> = 1, and relative minimums at <em>x</em> = -1 and <em>x</em> = 3.

Part C)

<em>f</em> is concave up whenever <em>f''</em> is positive and concave down whenever <em>f''</em> is negative.

In other words, <em>f</em> is concave up whenever <em>f'</em> is increasing and concave down whenever <em>f'</em> is decreasing.

Hence, <em>f</em> is concave up for the interval (rounded to the nearest tenths):

\displaystyle (-1.5 , 0) \cup (2.2, \infty)

And concave down for the interval:

\displaystyle (-\infty, -1.5) \cup (0, 2.2)

Part D)

Points of inflections are where the concavity changes: that is, <em>f''</em> changes from either positive to negative or negative to positive.

In other words, <em>f </em>has an inflection point wherever <em>f'</em> has an extremum point.

<em>f'</em> has extrema at (approximately) <em>x</em> = -1.5, 0, and 2.2.

Hence, <em>f</em> has inflection points at <em>x</em> = -1.5, 0, and 2.2.

The length of the shorter base in an isosceles trapezoid is 4 in, its altitude is 5 in, and the measure of one of its obtuse ang
Alexeev081 [22]
I'm not sure what level of math you are at, so I hope it's alright that I used the trig function of tangent. Basically, you just have to find the second base to be able to find the area using the formula for the area of a trapezoid (A = ½h(b₁ + b₂)). To do this, use the information given and a little creativity to create a triangle and find the missing pieces. Finally, plug everything into the equation and voilà. Hope that helps!

Draw a triangle with vertices A(0, 4), B(2, -2), and C(-2, -2). Apply a dilation centered at the origin with scale factor to 1/2
Darya [45]
"A dilation centered at the origin with scale factor to 1/2 from the origin" means that we must join O to all the vertices of the triangle, and make the distances 1/2 of the original triangle. This is shown clearly in the picture.

The coordinates of the new triangle are A'(0,4), B'(1,-1), C'(-1,-1).

<span>
The relationship between corresponding sides in terms of their lengths:
The sides of the dilated triangle are half the length of the first triangle.

</span><span>The relationship between corresponding sides in terms of their orientations.
The two triangles have the same orientation.

</span><span>The relationship between corresponding angles in terms of their measures.
The two triangles have congruent corresponding angles.</span>
