You Have A Garden Row Of 20 Watermelon Plants That Produce An Average Of 30 Watermelons Apiece. For Any

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: You should plant another 25 watermelons.

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of watermelons can be calculated as:

W = (20 + x)*(30 - x)

x is the number of plants that we add, for each plant that we add, the output per watermelon plants drops by one watermelon, then if we add x plants, each plant will give (30 - x) watermelons.

We want to maximize this equation, so let's distribute the product.

W = 600 + 30*x + 20*x - x^2

W = 600 + 50*x - x^2

Notice that this is a quadratic equation with a negative leading coefficient, this means that the maximum is at the vertex, and the arms of the equation will open down.

To find the maximum, we can just derive with respect to x, and find the value of x that makes that equal to zero, this is:

W'(x) = dW/dx = 50  - 2*x

W'(x) = 0 = 50 - 2*x

           2*x = 50

          x = 50/2 = 25.

Then the maximum output will be if you plant 25 more watermelon plants.

And this will be:

W(25) = 600 + 50*25 - 25^2 = 1,225 watermelons

Answer 2

You should plant 5 extra watermelon plants to maximize production.

Since you have a garden row of 20 watermelon plants that produce an average of 30 watermelons a piece, and for any additional watermelon plants planted, the output per watermelon plant drops by one watermelon, to determine how many extra watermelon plants should you plant you must perform the following calculation:

20 x 30 = 600 24 x 26 = 624 25 x 25 = 625 26 x 24 = 624

Therefore, you should plant 5 extra watermelon plants to maximize production.

Muller Farms uses at least 800 lb of special feed daily. The special feed is a mixture of corn and soybean meal with the following compositions:
lb per lb of feedstuff
Feedstuff Protein Fiber Cost ($/lb)
Corn .09 .02 .30
Soybean meal .60 .06 .90
The dietary requirements of the special feed are at least 30% protein and at most 5% fiber. The goal is to determine the daily minimum-cost feed mix.
(a) Formulate a linear programming (LP) problem to model the situation (minimizing cost and satisfying constraints). (Hint: let x1 be the lb of corn in the daily mix, and x2 represent the lb of soybean meal in the daily mix. Formulate objective function and constraints (3 constraints and non-negativity) according to the information given above)
(b) Set up an Excel sheet with the information of this LP problem.
(c) Use Excel Solver to compute the solution to this diet problem.
(d) Include in your report a screenshot of the Excel sheet you used to and a solution.

Answers

Answer:

470.59x₁ + 329,41x₂ = $437.65

Step-by-step explanation:

minimize: 0.30x₁ + 0.90x₂

where:

x₁ = pounds of corn

x₂ = pounds of soybean

constraints:

x₁ + x₂ ≥ 800

0.09x₁ + 0.60x₂ ≥ 0.30(800) ⇒ 0.09x₁ + 0.60x₂ ≥ 240

0.02x₁ + 0.06x₂ ≤ 0.05(800) ⇒ 0.02x₁ + 0.06x₂ ≤ 40

x₁ ≥ 0

x₂ ≥ 0

the optimal solution is: 470.59x₁ + 329,41x₂ = $437.65

1. la señora Treviño tiene el doble de edad que su

¿cual es su edad actual?

Answers

Answer:

Daughter age = x = 16 years old

Mother's age = 2x = 2 × 16 = 32 years

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of their current age is shown below:

Let us assume that the current age of the daughter is x

And, the current age of the mother be 2x

Now nine years ago, their ages would be

daughter age is x - 9

And, the mother age would be 2x - 9

Now the equation would be

x - 9 + 2x - 9 = 30

3x - 18 = 30

3x = 30 + 18

3x = 48

x = 48 ÷ 3

x = 16.

Therefore

Daughter age = x = 16 years old

Mother's age = 2x = 2 × 16 = 32 years

The total length of wires A,B and C is 445cm. Wire A is 45cm longer then wire B,and wire B is half as long as wire C. How long is wire A?

Answers

Answer:

A = 145cm

Step-by-step explanation:

A+B+C = 445cm  

b = 1/2c

a = b+45  =  1/2c + 45

445 = c + (0.5c) + (0.5c + 45)

445 = 2c + 45

445 - 45 = 2c

400/2 = c

c = 200cm

a = 1/2c + 45 = 1/2*200 + 45 = 100 + 45 = 145cm

Use the following information for the questionThe average travel time to work for a person living in kokomo is 17 minutes.

Approximately what percentage of people living in Flint have a travel time to work that is less than 12.5 minutes?A) 15% B) 25% C) 75% D) None of these.

Answers

Answer:

16%

Step-by-step explanation:

We solve using z score formula

= z = (x-μ)/σ, where

x is the raw score = 12.5 minutes

μ is the population mean = 17 minutes

σ is the population standard deviation = 4.5 minutes

z = 12.5 - 17/4.5

z = -1

Probability value from Z-Table:

P(x<12.5) = 0.15866

Converting to percentage

= 0.15866 × 100

= 15.866%

Approximately , the percentage of people living in Flint have a travel time to work that is less than 12.5 minutes is 16%

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1)4x5= 20 times

2) principal= 5000

interest rate per year= 3%

compounded times per year=4

time in years = 5

the formula is amt= p*(1+r/n)^(n*t)

thus

Amount = 5805.92

3) If time in years = 23.2

then

amount = 10,002.56

4) Principal = 5,000

interest rate per yr= 5.82%

Compounded times per year = 4

time in years =12

Equation of direct variation is : [tex]\mathbf{y=5x}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given: x= 5 and y=25

We need to write equation of direct variation.

The formula for direct variation is: [tex]\mathbf{y=kx}[/tex]

So, if y=25 and x=5, k will be:

[tex]y=kx\\25=k(5)\\k=\frac{25}{5}\\k=5[/tex]
