Answer:
<em><u>A.10000</u></em>
<em><u>B.25 more trees must be planted</u></em>
Step-by-step explanation:
⇒Given:
- The intial average yield per acre
= 150
- The initial number of trees per acre
= 100
- For each additional tree over 100, the average yield per tree decreases by 1 i.e , if the number trees become 101 , the avg yield becomes 149.
- Total yield = (number of trees per acre)
(average yield per acre)
<em>A.</em>
⇒If the total trees per acre is doubled , which means :
total number of trees per acre
=
= 200
the yield will decrease by :
- 

⇒total yield = 
<em>B.</em>
⇒to maximize the yield ,
let's take the number of trees per acre to be 100+y ;
and thus the average yield per acre = 150 - y;
total yield = 
this is a quadratic equation. this can be rewritten as ,
⇒ 
In this equation , the total yield becomes maximum when y=25;
<u><em>⇒Thus the total number of trees per acre = 100+25 =125;</em></u>
Answer:
Answer: (B) 3
Step-by-step explanation:
20x + 15(2x) + 10(3x) = 40
20x + 30x + 30x = 40
80x = 40
x = 40/80
x = 1/2
Find the amount of lobster
Lobster = x = 1/2 pound
Find the amount of crab:
Crab = 2x = 2(1/2) = 1 pound
Find the amount of Shrimp:
Shrimp = 3x = 3(1/2) = 3/2 pounds
Find the total pounds of seafood:
Total = 1/2 + 1 + 3/2 = 3 pounds
Answer: (B) 3
Answer:
3:2
Step-by-step explanation:
Ewen has 48 white tiles and 16 blue tiles
The cost of each white tile was £2
The cost of each blue tile was £4
Therefore the total cost of 48 white tiles is
= 48×2
= £96
The total cost of 16 blue tiles is
= 16×4
= £64
The ratio of the total cost of the white tiles and blue tile can be calculated by dividing the cost of both tiles by their greatest common factor
The greatest common factor of £96 and £64 is 32
96/32 = 3
64/32= 2
Ratio= 3:2
Hence the ratio of the total cost of the white tiles to the blue tiles is 3:2
Answer:
1/6 <3
Step-by-step explanation:
5/6 divided by 5
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
This is an order of operations question. First in PEMDOS you want to do your parenthesis, turn (5-2) into 3,
15 ÷ 3 + 4
Then do your divison, turning 15 ÷ 3 into 5
5 + 4
Then finish with 5 + 4
The answer is 9
