For each additional vine that is planted, the production of each vine decreases by about 1 percent. So, the number of pounds of grapes produced per acre is modeled by An=700+n10-0.01n where n is the number of additional vines planted. Find the number of vines that should be planted to maximize grape production.arrow_forwardA farmer finds there is a linear relationship betweenthe number of bean stalks, n, she plants and theyield, y, each plant produces. When she plants 30stalks, each plant yields 30 oz of beans. When sheplants 34 stalks, each plant produces 28 oz of beans.Find a linear relationship in the form y=mn+b that gives the yield when n stalks are planted.arrow_forward
