19 trees should be planted to maximize the total
<h3>How many trees should be planted to maximize the total</h3>
From the question, we have the following parameters:
Number of apples, x = 18
Yield, f(x) = 80 per tree
When the number of apple trees is increased (say by x).
We have:
Trees = 18 + x
The yield decreases by four apples per tree.
So, we have
Yield = 80 - 4x
So, the profit function is
P(x) = Apples * Yield
This gives
P(x) = (18 + x) *(80 - 4x)
Expand the bracket
P(x) = 1440 - 72x + 80x - 4x^2
Differentiate the function
P'(x) = 0 - 72 + 80 - 8x
Evaluate the like terms
P'(x) = 8 - 8x
Set P'(x) to 0
8 - 8x = 0
Divide through by 8
1 - x = 0
Solve for x
x = 1
Recall that:
Trees = 18 + x
So, we have
Trees = 18 + 1
Evaluate
Trees = 19
Hence, 19 trees should be planted to maximize the total

Answer:
He actually has 25 paints.
Step-by-step explanation:
This is because you take 18x100(100 is the total % under 72 because 72 is out of 100) that equals 1800. then, you take 1800 and divide it by 72. That is because 72 is the actual number that we already have. You would get 25 after dividing. hope this helps:)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The original price was 43 dollars
The new price is 55/100 * 43
The new price is 2365/100
The new price is 23.65 dollars
2365 came from multiplying 43 * 55 which is 2365
