A botanist is using two types of plants for an experiment. She writes inequalities to model the constraints on the number of eac

h type of plant she can use. She uses linear programming to find the vertex of the feasible region that results in the minimum value, in dollars, of the cost function. If that vertex is (5, 39), what do the coordinates represent?
Buying five of one type of plant and 39 of the other type of plant results in the lowest cost.
Buying five of each type of plant costs $39, which is the lowest possible cost.
The lowest possible cost of the plants is $5, which occurs when 39 of each type of plant are bought.
The lowest possible cost of the plants is $5, which occurs when a total of 39 plants are bought.

Answer:

 Buying five of each type of plant costs \$39, which is the lowest possible cost

Step-by-step explanation:

Linear programming is a method used to maximize or minimize a linear function of several variables like output or cost.

Given vertex is (5,39).

A botanist uses linear programming to find the vertex of the feasible region that results in the minimum value, in dollars, of the cost function.

Here,  vertex (5,39) means that  Buying five of each type of plant costs $39, which is the lowest possible cost.

The vertex (5,39)

5 is the value of x. 39 is the value of y. y is the cost function of the minimum value in dollars.

Three balls are packaged in a cylindrical container as shown below. The balls just touch the top, bottom, and sides of the cylin
sp2606 [1]

Answer:

3,451 cm³

Step-by-step explanation:

The ball is a sphere.

Formula for finding the volume of a sphere = ⁴/3*πr³

Volume of the 3 balls = 3(⁴/3*πr³)

Where,

radius (r) = ½ of diameter = ½(13) = 6.5 cm

Plug in the values into the formula:

Volume of the 3 balls = 3(⁴/3*π*6.5³)

= 4*π*274.625

= 3,451.03953 ≈ 3,451 cm³

Aaron wants to make a path to guide guest through the conservation area.He uses rolls of rope to make the path.He uses 3/4 of a
mel-nik [20]

Answer:

Aaron needs <u>2 more rolls</u> to complete the path.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Total rolls Aaron has = 4

Part of path covered by using \frac{3}{4} of a roll = \frac{1}{8}

So, in order to find the number of rolls required to cover the complete path is given using the unitary method.

Rolls used for \frac{1}{8} of a path = \frac{3}{4}

Therefore, rolls used to cover the whole path is given by dividing the rolls used for one-eighth of the path and the path covered. This gives,

=\frac{3}{4}\div \frac{1}{8}

=\frac{3}{4}\times \frac{8}{1}

=\frac{3\times 8}{4\times 1}

=\frac{24}{4}

=6\ rolls

Now, rolls required to complete the path is 6. But Aaron has only 4 rolls.

So, he will need 6 - 4 = 2 rolls more to complete the path.

(4x^4+7x+5x^3)+(8x^4+6x^3-3x)-(4x^4+4x^3-8x)<br>plz help​
ryzh [129]

Answer:

8x⁴ - 7x³ + 12x

Step-by-step explanation:

=(4x⁴ + 7x + 5x³) + (8x⁴ + 6x³ - 3x)- (4x⁴ + 4x³ - 8x)

=4x⁴ + 7x + 5x³ + 8x⁴ + 6x³ - 3x - 4x⁴ - 4x³ + 8x

=4x⁴ + 8x⁴ - 4x⁴+ <em>5x³ + 6x³ - 4x³</em> + <u>7x - 3x + 8x</u>

=8x⁴ + 7x³ + 12x
