#6

Yes

Direct variation because Time increases cupcakes increases and vice versa

#B

Constant of proportionality represents the amount of time required per cupcakes

#7

Yes we can find it

We have to check the x and y values of the ordered pairs (x,y)

If y is decreasing with respect to increase in x then it's inverse variation

the area of a rectangle is 42 square inches and one side is 12 inches long . find the perimeter of the rectangle
valentinak56 [21]
The area is one side times the other side
Make the other side x.
12x=42
x=42/12=3.5
The perimeter is 2x+2y where x and y are sides of the rectangle.
P= 2(3.5)+2(12)=7+24=31 inches
Hope this helps.

The owner of an orange grove estimates that if 24 trees are planted per acre, then each mature tree will yield 600 oranges per y
tia_tia [17]

Answer:

16428 oranges

Explanation:

Total yield = number of trees × number of oranges in each tree

Initial yield = 600×24= 14400 oranges

To find the equation needed, let x = additional trees and y= total yield

Number of trees = 24 +x

Number of oranges in each tree = 600-12x

Equation of total yield y= (24+x)(600-12x)

y= 14400-288x+600x-12x²

y= -12x²+312x+14400

Using a graphing calculator, from the graph drawn for this quadratic equation, we notice that it is a parabola. Therefore to find the maximum value, we should find the maximum point which is at the vertex of the parabola, we use the formula x= -b/2a

A quadratic equation is such: ax²+bx+c

Therefore x =-312/2×-12

x= -312/-24

x= 13

So we can conclude that in order to maximise oranges from the trees, the person needs to plant an additional 13 trees. Substituting from the above:

24+x=24+13= 37 trees in total

y= -12x²+312x+14400= -12×13²+312×13+14400= -2028+4056+14400

=16428 oranges in total yield
