Dmitry [639]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given:

The equation describing the forest wood biomass per hectare as a function of plantation age t is:

y(t) = 5 + 0.005t^2 + 0.024t^3 − 0.0045t^4

The equation that describes the annual growth in wood biomass is:

y ′ (t) = 0.01t + 0.072t^2 - 0.018t^3

To find:

a) The year the annual growth achieved its highest possible value

b) when does y ′ (t) achieve its highest value?

a)

To determine the year the highest possible value was achieved, we will set the derivative y'(t) to zero. The values of t will be substituted into the second derivative to get the highest value

$\begin{gathered} 0\text{ = 0.01t + 0.072t}^2\text{ - 0.018t}^3 \\ using\text{ a graphing tool,} \\ t\text{ = -0.1343} \\ \text{t = 0} \\ t\text{ = 4.1343} \\ \\ Since\text{ we can't have time as a negative value, t = 0 or t = 4.1343} \end{gathered}$ $\begin{gathered} To\text{ ascertain which is the maximum, we take a second derivative} \\ y^{\prime}\text{'\lparen t\rparen = 0.01 + 0.144t - 0.054t}^2 \\ \\ substitute\text{ t = 0 and t = 4.13 respectively} \\ when\text{ t = 0 } \\ y^{\prime}\text{'\lparen t\rparen= 0.01 + 0.144\lparen0\rparen - 0.054\lparen0\rparen}^2 \\ y^{\prime}\text{'\lparen t\rparen= 0.01 + 0 - 0} \\ y^{\prime}\text{'\lparen t\rparen= 0.01 > 0} \\ \\ y^{\prime}\text{'\lparen t\rparen= 0.01 + 0.144\lparen4.13\rparen - 0.054\lparen4.13\rparen}^2 \\ y^{\prime}\text{'\lparen t\rparen= -0.316 < 0} \\ \\ if\text{ }y^{\prime}\text{'\lparen t\rparen > 0 , then it is minimum, } \\ if\text{ }y^{\prime}\text{'\lparen t\rparen < 0, then it is maximum} \end{gathered}$

SInce t = 4.13, gives y ′' (t) = -0.316 (< 0). This makes it the maximum value of t

The year the annual growth achieved its highest possible value to the nearest whole number will be

year 4

b) y ′ (t) will achieve its highest value, when we substitute the value of t that gives into the initial function.

Initial function: y(t) = 5 + 0.005t^2 + 0.024t^3 − 0.0045t^4

Determine whether or not the following question can be considered as a statistical question.

Naddika [18.5K]

The situation would come as follows: "Does Andrew make more money than Laura?"

The question can only be answered with a yes or no. Which does not generate any statistics because they are characterized by having an inherent variability in the data used to answer the question. And in this question there is no variability since if you earn more money or not because they are focused on itself, there is a positive or negative side and from there there is no variation.

Therefore NOT a statistical question.

3 3/8 divided by 2 1/4 =

denpristay [2]

Answer:

1.5 or 1/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Dividing two fractions is the same as multiplying the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction. The first step to dividing fractions is to find the reciprocal (reverse the numerator and denominator) of the second fraction. Next, multiply the two numerators. Then, multiply the two denominators.
