Answer:

Option D.(60, 135)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x -----> the number of acres of peas

y ----> the number of acres of carrots

we know that

The inequality that represent the problem is equal to

x+y\leq 200

so

<em>Verify each case</em>

case A) (-50,160)

substitute the value of x and the value of y in the inequality and then compare the result

-50+160\leq 200

110\leq 200 ----> is true

The point is a solution for the inequality, but is not a viable solution because the number of acres can not be a negative number

case B) (80,160)

substitute the value of x and the value of y in the inequality and then compare the result

80+160\leq 200

240\leq 200 ----> is not true

therefore

The point is not a solution

case C) (75,-200)

substitute the value of x and the value of y in the inequality and then compare the result

75-200\leq 200

-125\leq 200 ----> is true

The point is a solution for the inequality, but is not a viable solution because the number of acres can not be a negative number

case D) (60,135)

substitute the value of x and the value of y in the inequality and then compare the result

60+135\leq 200

195\leq 200 ----> is true

therefore

The point is a viable solution

Simplify f+g / f-g when f(x)= x-4 / x+9 and g(x)= x-9 / x+4
steposvetlana [31]

f(x)=\dfrac{x-4}{x+9};\ g(x)=\dfrac{x-9}{x+4}\\\\f(x)+g(x)=\dfrac{x-4}{x+9}+\dfrac{x-9}{x+4}=\dfrac{(x-4)(x+4)+(x-9)(x+9)}{(x+9)(x+4)}\\\\\text{use}\ a^2-b^2=(a-b)(a+b)\\\\=\dfrac{x^2-4^2+x^2-9^2}{(x+9)(x+4)}=\dfrac{2x^2-16-81}{(x+9)(x+4)}=\dfrac{2x^2-97}{(x+9)(x+4)}\\\\f(x)-g(x)=\dfrac{x-4}{x+9}-\dfrac{x-9}{x+4}=\dfrac{(x-4)(x+4)-(x-9)(x+9)}{(x+9)(x+4)}\\\\\text{use}\ a^2-b^2=(a-b)(a+b)\\\\=\dfrac{x^2-4^2-(x^2-9^2)}{(x+9)(x+4)}=\dfrac{x^2-16-x^2+81}{(x+9)(x+4)}=\dfrac{65}{(x+9)(x+4)}


\dfrac{f+g}{f-g}=(f+g):(f-g)=\dfrac{2x^2-97}{(x+9)(x+4)}:\dfrac{65}{(x+9)(x+4)}\\\\=\dfrac{2x^2-97}{(x+9)(x+4)}\cdot\dfrac{(x+9)(x+4)}{65}\\\\Answer:\ \boxed{\dfrac{f+g}{f-g}=\dfrac{2x^2-97}{65}}

Rodney bought a 50 pound bag of dog food. HIS dog ate 2/5 of the food in the first mon th and 2/10 of the food in the second mon
NeTakaya

Answer:

20 lbs

Step-by-step explanation:

2/5ths of the food would be 20 pounds because:

2/5 * 50 = 20

2/10ths of the food would be 10 pounds because:

2/10 * 50 = 10

If we add those two together, we would get the total amount that the dog ate, which would be 30 pounds. SInce the dog ate 30 pounds of food out of the 50 pounds, there would be 20 pounds left in the bag at the end of two months:

50- ( 20+ 10) = 20

how much money has to be invested at 5.9% interest compounded continuously to have 15,000 after 12 years?
Scrat [10]
Hi there

The formula is
A=pe^rt
We need to solve for p where
A future value 15000
P present value?
E constant
R interest rate 0.059
T time 12 years
So when you solve for p you get
P=A÷e^rt
P=15,000÷e^(0.059×12)
P=7,389.43

Hope it helps
