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.

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

Esmerelda bought a bag of jelly beans. There were 24 green jelly beans, which made up 8%, percent of all the jelly beans in the
Margarita [4]
So, let's look at the problem once again.

8%, or 8/100 of the bag were green jelly beans.

Let's see what we can do to find out a number of other jelly beans, not including the green ones.

We know that 92% of jelly-beans are not green.

92% is 11.5 times more than 8%
(92/8)

24 (or 8%) times 11.5 = 276

276 - number of jelly beans that are not green.

276 plus 24 = 300.

Answer: 300 jelly beans were in one bag.

Komok [63]

Answer: B and C only

Step-by-step explanation:

The temperature on a cold day starts at 0 degrees Celsius, falls 4 degrees, and rises 4 degrees

Initial temperature = 0

Temperature rise = 4

Fall in temperature = - 4

(Initial temperature + rise in temperature + fall in temperature)

Summing all : (0 + 4 - 4) = 0

carbon atom has 6 negatively charged electrons and 6 positively charged protons.

Net charge of atom :

(number of proton + number of electrons)

( 6 + (-6)) = 0
