So what you do is
make into ax^2+bx+c=0 form
add-9/2 to both sides
y^2-2y+9/2=0
now we use the quadratice formula which is
x=
ax^2+bx+c=0
1y^2-2y+9/2
a=1
b=-2
c=9/2
subsitute
x=
x=
x=
x=
x=
x=
x=
x=
x=
answer is C
Answer
The equation simplified is: r=x+1
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

The answer is the graph has a relative maximum
Answer:
y=2x+3
Step-by-step explanation:
Y is the total amount that the family pays. 2x represents 2 dollars for every person (so, 2 multiplied by the number of people). Finally, 3 represents the initial amount that they must pay, no matter how many are in the car.
