Answer:

a₇ = 16992.84

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

a₁ = 11, r = 3.4 and n = 7

The geometric sequence is given by :

$a_n=a_1\cdot r^{n-1}$

Put all the values,

$a_7=11\times (3.4)^{7-1}\\\\=11\times (3.4)^6\\\\=16992.84$

So, the seventh term is equal to 16992.84.

walnut grower estimates from past records that if 20 trees are planted per acre, then each tree will average 60 pounds of nuts p

laila [671]

Answer:

5 trees should be planted to maximize the yield per acre,

The maximum yield would be 1250

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

The original number of trees per acre = 20,

Average pounds of nuts by a tree = 60,

Let x be the times of increment in number of trees,

So, the new number of trees planted per acre = 20 + x

∵ for each additional tree planted per acre, the average yield per tree drops 2 pounds,

So, the new number of pounds of nut = (60 - 2x)

Thus, the total yield per acre,

$Y(x) = (20+x)(60-2x)$

Differentiating with respect to t ( time ),

$Y'(x) = (20+x)(-2) + 60 - 2x = -40 - 2x + 60 - 2x = 20 - 4x$

Again differentiating with respect to t,

$Y''(x) = -4$

For maxima or minima,

$Y'(x) = 0$

⇒ 20 - 4x = 0

⇒ 20 = 4x

⇒ x = 5,

For x = 5, Y''(x) = negative,

Hence, Y(x) is maximum for x = 5,

And, maximum value of Y(x) = (20+5)(60 - 10) = 25(50) = 1250,

i.e. 5 trees should be planted to maximize the yield per acre,

and the maximum yield would be 1250 pounds

Answer:

d. x-axis

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider a point on curve P and its (nearest) image on curve P'. The midpoint between those points is on the line of reflection. That line is the x-axis.

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

The curve is symmetrical about the y-axis, so each point on P also has an image point that is its reflection across the origin. The reflection of P could be across both the x- and y-axes, or (equivalently) across the origin. We don't know the meaning of "xy-axis", so we suspect that is a red herring. The best choice here is "x-axis."
