Answer:
The water temperature that produces the maximum number of salmon swimming upstream is approximately 12.305 degrees Celsius.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let 
, for 
. 
represents the temperature of the water, measured in degrees Celsius, and 
is the number of salmon swimming upstream to spawn, dimensionless.
We compute the first and second derivatives of the function:
(Eq. 1)
(Eq. 2)
Then we equalize (Eq. 1) to zero and solve for :
And all roots are found by Quadratic Formula:
, 
Only the first root is inside the given interval of the function. Hence, the correct answer is:
Now we evaluate the second derivative at given result. That is:
According to the Second Derivative Test, a negative value means that critical value leads to a maximum. In consequence, the water temperature that produces the maximum number of salmon swimming upstream is approximately 12.305 degrees Celsius.
Answer: A sequence of similar transformations of dilation and translation could map △ABC onto △A'B'C'.
Step-by-step explanation:
Similar transformations: If one figure can be mapped onto the other figure using a dilation and a congruent rigid transformation or a rigid transformation followed by dilation then the two figures are said to be similar.
In the attachment △ABC mapped onto △A'B'C' by a sequence of dilation from origin and scalar factor k followed by translation.
Answer:
a) about 0.7 seconds to 5.1 seconds.
b) Listed below.
Step-by-step explanation:
h - 1 = -5x^2 + 29x
h = -5x^2 + 29x + 1
a) We will find the amount of time it takes to get to 18 meters.
18 = -5x^2 + 29x + 1
-5x^2 + 29x + 1 = 18
-5x^2 + 29x - 17 = 0
We will then use the quadratic formula to find the answer.
[please ignore the A-hat; that is a bug]
= 
= 
= 
= 
and 
= 0.6616970714 and 5.138302929
So, the time period for which the baseball is higher than 18 metres ranges from about 0.7 seconds to 5.1 seconds.
b) Restrictions on the domain and range of the function are that the domain and range can never be negative, since time cannot be negative, and height cannot be negative. The height cannot exceed the vertex of the parabola, since that is the highest the ball will ever go. It cannot exceed that height since gravity will cause the ball to fall down.
Hope this helps!

Explanation:
First, group the 40 identical candies into 20 pairs. It doesn't matter how since the candies are identical. This grouping will ensure that any assigment will contain at least two candies.
Then think of the 20 groups a 20 beads on a string. We are looking to place 11 separators between them to obtain 12 segments, each with a varying number of beads between them. How many ways are there to place 11 separators to 19 potential spaces between beads? The asnwer is
