Answer:

$3200

Step-by-step explanation:

The total area of land is 30 acre. Let x represent the area in acre that corn is planted and y represent the area in acre that wheat is planted. Therefore:

x + y = 30               (1)

Also, the farmer can spend at most $750 on seeds. Corn cost $15 per acre, maize cost $30 per acre. Hence:

15x + 30y ≤ 750      (2)

Also, x and y > 0

The profit is given by the function:

Profit = 100x + 110y

Graphing equation 1 and equation 2 and solving, we get the points:

(10, 20)

Hence the maximum profit is at:

Max profit = 100(10) + 110(20) = $3200

Simplify.<br><br> 1/cosθ + tan^2θ/cosθ<br><br> • 1 + sinθ<br> • sec^3θ<br> • 1<br> • cos^3θ
olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

I'm guessing the answer is sec³θ

Step-by-step explanation:

I tried this problem and I got 1/cos³θ and clicked cos³θ, but that answer was incorrect. In my lesson, there were the options:

1. sec³θ

2. cos³θ

3.  secθ

I didn't have options 1 + sinθ or 1 as answers. If sec³θ is not the correct answer, please correct me.
