Answer:

In order to get the highest yield, 25 tress should be planted

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data in the question;

Let n be number bushel, b is bushels per tree, t is number of trees

from the question, if t = 20, b = 30

and if t = 21 then b = 29

so t + b is constant

t + b = 50 ----- let this be equation

now, n = t × b

so b = n / t

hence from equation, we input b = n/t

t + n/t = 50

n/t = 50 - t

n = t(50 - t)

n = 50t - t²

now we get the derivatives

Note, The maximum amount of trees is simply where the derivative is equal zero, so;

0 = 50 - 2t

2t = 50

t = 50/2

t = 25

Therefore, In order to get the highest yield, 25 tress should be planted

Multiply 2x-5y= -21 by 3 to make it 6x-15y= -63
Multiply 3x-3y= -18 by -5 to make it -15x+15y=90

This cancels the y’s out which leaves us with

6x=-63
&
-15x=90

x for 6x=-63 equals - 10.5 so x is - 10.5 and for -15x=90, x= -6

Then you plug in x into any equation you’d like to find y.

Let’s plug in - 10.5 into 6x... equation.

6(- 10.5)-15y=-63

63-15y= -63
-63 -63

-15y=0
y=0 and x= - 10.5. When you plug in this values it makes the equation true!

But the correct answer is the first one north. Sorry if I’m doing too much hahah


If I’m confusing here’s the right answer...


6x-15y= -63
-15x+15y=90
