1 1/12
The fractions have unlike denominators. First, find the Least Common Denominator and rewrite the fractions with the common denominator.
LCD(1/3, 3/4) = 12
Multiply both the numerator and denominator of each fraction by the number that makes its denominator equal the LCD. This is basically multiplying each fraction by 1.
(13×44)+(34×33)=?
Complete the multiplication and the equation becomes
4/12+9/12=?
The two fractions now have like denominators so you can add the numerators.
Then:
4+9/12=13/12
This fraction cannot be reduced.
The fraction
13/12
is the same as
13÷12
Convert to a mixed number using
long division for 13 ÷ 12 = 1R1, so
1312=1 1/12
Therefore:
13+34=1 11/2
Answer:
x = 8.2
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: p = -4
Step-by-step explanation:
9-4(2p-1) = 45
9-8p+4 = 45
13-8p = 45
-8p = 45 - 13
-8p = 32
p = -(32/8)
p = -4
Answer:
a) Y(x) = {900, x≤30; 900-40(x-30), x>30}
b) T(x) = {900x, x≤30; 2100x-40x², x>30}
c) dT/dx = {900, x≤30; 2100-80x, x>30}
Step-by-step explanation:
a) The problem statement gives the function for x ≤ 30, and gives an example of evaluating the function for x = 35. So, replacing 35 in the example with x gives the function definition for x > 30.

__
b) The yield per acre is the product of the number of trees and the yield per tree:
T(x) = x·Y(x)

__
c) The derivative is ...

_____
The attached graph shows the yield per acre (purple, overlaid by red for x<30), the total yield (black), and the derivative of the total yield (red). You will note the discontinuity in the derivative at x=30, where adding one more tree per acre suddenly makes the rate of change of yield be negative.
