Dave has inherited an apple orchard on which 50 trees are planted. Under these conditions, each tree yields 14 bushels of apples. According to the local WSU extension agent, each time Dave removes a tree the yield per tree will go up 0.55 bushels. Let x be the number of trees in the orchard and N the yield per tree. (a) Find a formula for N in terms of the unknown x. (Hint: Make a table of data with one column representing various values of x and the other column the corresponding values of N. After you complete the first few rows of the table, you need to discover the pattern.)

(b) What possible reason(s) might explain why the yield goes up when you remove trees?

Which expression is rational? 6. , square root two, square root 14, square root 49

Ascientist has 50 grams of a radioactive element. the amount of radioactive element remaining after t days can be determined using the equation (1) after two days the scientist receives a second shipment of 50 grams of the same element. the equation used to represent the amount of shipment 2 remaining after t days is 10) - 50 which of the following is an equivalent form of the expression for the amount remaining in shipment 2? what’s the answer?

The school track has eight lanes. each lane is 1.25 meters wide. the arc at each end of the track is 180. the distance of the home straight and the radii for the arcs in the 1st 4 lanes are given. s=85m r1=36.5m r2=37.75m r3=39m r4=40.25m part one: find the radii of lanes 5 through 8 of the track. show your work. part two: if max ran around lane one, how far did he run? show your work and explain your solution. part three: max wants to run a total of three laps around the track, choose two additional lanes (2-8) for him to run and find the distance around those two lanes. show your work and round to the hundredths. part 4: based on your lane choices in part three, what was the total distance max ran in the three laps around the track?
