Answer:

<em> 15</em>
<em> 42,250</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

The given function is,

$P=40000+300x-10x^2$

where,

P = the total production of apples,

x = the number of trees added.

As the quadratic function has a negative leading coefficient, so it will open downward and at the vertex the value of function is maximum.

The vertex will be at $\left(-\dfrac{b}{2a},-f\left(\dfrac{b}{2a}\right )\right)$

The value of the function will be maximum at,

$x=-\dfrac{b}{2a}$

Putting the values,

$x=-\dfrac{300}{2\times (-10)}=\dfrac{300}{2\times 10}=\dfrac{300}{20}=15$

So at x=15 or for 15 number of trees the production will be ,maximum.

Putting x=15 in f(x) will yield the maximum production of apples.

$P=40000+300(15)-10(15)^2=42,250$

Help with number 7!! You don’t have to do it but how do you do the problem??

80 * 5/8 will give you how many are thoroughbreds.

80 * 5/8 = 50

Now subtract this from all of the horses.

80 - 50 = 30.

There are 30 quarter horses.

OR If 5/8 of the horses are thoroughbreds, then 3/8 are quarter horses.

80 * 3/8 = 30.
