A home gardener estimates that 24 apple trees will have an average yield of 104 apples per tree. But because of the size of the garden, for each additional tree planted the yield will decrease by two apples per tree. (a) How many additional trees should be planted to maximize the total yield of apples

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The farmer should plant 14 additional trees, for maximum yield.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]Trees = 24[/tex]

[tex]Yield = 104[/tex]

[tex]x \to additional\ trees[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]Trees = 24 + x[/tex]

[tex]Yield = 104 - 2x[/tex]

Required

The additional trees to be planted for maximum yield

The function is:

[tex]f(x) = Trees * Yield[/tex]

[tex]f(x) = (24 + x) * (104 - 2x)[/tex]

Open bracket

[tex]f(x) = 24 * 104 + 104x - 24 * 2x - x * 2x[/tex]

[tex]f(x) = 2796 + 104x - 48x - 2x^2[/tex]

[tex]f(x) = 2796 + 56x - 2x^2[/tex]

Rewrite as:

[tex]f(x) = - 2x^2 + 56x + 2796[/tex]

Differentiate

[tex]f'(x) = -4x + 56[/tex]

Equate [tex]f'(x) = -4x + 56[/tex] to 0 and solve for x to get the maximum of x

[tex]-4x + 56 = 0[/tex]

[tex]-4x =- 56[/tex]

Divide by -4

[tex]x =14[/tex]

The farmer should plant 14 additional trees, for maximum yield.

Answer:

The class with the greatest is 138- 202 and the class with the least relative frequency is 333 - 397

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving (a): The frequency distribution

Given that:

[tex]Lowest = 138[/tex] --- i.e. the lowest class value

[tex]Class = 5[/tex] --- Number of classes

From the given dataset is:

[tex]Highest = 459[/tex]

So, the range is:

[tex]Range = Highest - Lowest[/tex]

[tex]Range = 459 - 138[/tex]

[tex]Range = 321[/tex]

Divide by the number of class (5) to get the class width

[tex]Width = 321 \div 5[/tex]

[tex]Width = 64.2[/tex]

Approximate

[tex]Width = 64[/tex]

So, we have a class width of 64 in each class;

The frequency table is as follows:

[tex]\begin{array}{cc}{Class}& {Frequency} & 138 - 202 & 14 & 203 - 267 & 5 & 268 - 332 & 3 & 333 - 397 & 1 & 398 - 462 & 3 \ \end{array}[/tex]

Solving (b) The relative frequency histogram

First, we calculate the relative frequency by dividing the frequency of each class by the total frequency

So, we have:

[tex]\begin{array}{ccc}{Class}& {Frequency} & {Relative\ Frequency} & 138 - 202 & 14 & 0.53 & 203 - 267 & 5 & 0.19 & 268 - 332 & 3 & 0.12 & 333 - 397 & 1 & 0.04 & 398 - 462 & 3 & 0.12 \ \end{array}[/tex]

Emily drove to town with an average speed of 32 miles per hour, and then back home with an average speed of 38 miles per hour. If her total traveling time was 42 minutes, how far is it from home to town?

Answers

Answer:

12.16 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Speed - s,   Distance - d,  Time - t

Equation of time is:

t = d/s

Given,

s1 = 32 m/h, s2 = 38 m/h, t1 + t2 = 42 min = 42/60 h = 7/10 h

Total time is the sum of time values to and from the town:

d/32 + d/38 = 7/10d/16 + d/19 = 7/5d(1/16 + 1/19) = 7/5d(16 + 19) = 7(16*19)/535d = 425.6d = 425.6/35d = 12.16

It is given that,

→ s1= 32 miles/h

→ s2 = 38 miles/h

Now t1 + t2 is,

→ 42 min

→ 42/60 hours

→ 7/10 hours

The formula we use,

→ Time = Distance/Speed

→ t = d/s

Then the total time is the,

Sum of time values to and from the town.

→ d/32 + d/38 = 7/10

→ d/16 + d/19 = 7/5

→ d{(1/16) + (1/19)} = 7/5

→ d(16 + 19) = (7/5) × (16 × 19)

→ 35d = 425.6

→ d = 425.6/35

→ d = 12.16

Hence, the distance is 12.16 miles.

Answers

I don’t know the answer but help this man

Simon will pay £18 in VAT for using 3000 units of electricity in one year.

The VAT rate for gas and electric is 5%.

Therefore, Simon will pay VAT on his electricity usage.

Let's calculate Simon's annual electricity cost without VAT:

Cost per unit of electricity = 12p

= £0.12

Number of units used in one year = 3000

Electricity cost without VAT = Cost per unit × Number of units

= £0.12 × 3000

= £360

Now, let's calculate the VAT amount:

VAT rate = 5% = 0.05

VAT amount = Electricity cost without VAT × VAT rate

= £360 × 0.05

= £18

Therefore, Simon will pay £18 in VAT for using 3000 units of electricity in one year.

Suppose that the walking step lengths of adult males are normally distributed with a mean of 2.5 feet and a standard deviation of 0.4 feet. A sample of 45 men’s step lengths is taken. Step 1 of 2 : Find the probability that an individual man’s step length is less than 1.9 feet. Round your answer to 4 decimal places, if necessary.

Answers

Answer:

0.0668 = 6.68% probability that an individual man’s step length is less than 1.9 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Normally distributed with a mean of 2.5 feet and a standard deviation of 0.4 feet.

This means that [tex]\mu = 2.5, \sigma = 0.4[/tex]

Find the probability that an individual man’s step length is less than 1.9 feet.

This is the p-value of Z when X = 1.9. So

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{1.9 - 2.5}{0.4}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -1.5[/tex]

[tex]Z = -1.5[/tex] has a p-value of 0.0668

0.0668 = 6.68% probability that an individual man’s step length is less than 1.9 feet.

If a figure is reflected across the x-axis then the corresponding parts are mirror image of each other about the x-axis.

It means the distance between A and x-axis is same as the distance between x-axis and A'.

The distance between point A and A’ is 14.

What is the linear relationship?

A linear relationship is a connection that takes the shape of a straight line on a graph between two distinct variables - x and y. When displaying a linear connection using an equation, the value of y is derived from the value of x, indicating their relationship.

The table shows the relationship between the number of faculty members and the number of students at a local school.

2                   34

3                   51

4                    ?

The relationship between the number of faculty members and the number of students at the local school is that for every faculty member, there are 17 students.

Therefore, if there are 4 faculty members, we can find the number of students by multiplying 4 by 17, which gives us 68.

Thus, the missing value in the table is B. 68.
