Write equation for yield of single tree to number of trees


The farmer has the apple orchard on which 60 trees are planted per acre. As it is, every tree yields 12 bushels of apples per season. Experiments recommend that for every extra apple tree per acre, yield of every tree on acre decreases by .5 bushels.

a) Write the equation relating yield of the single tree to number of trees planted on acre

b) Write the equation for total yield of all trees planted on the acre in terms of number of trees and their individual yields.

c) Determine maximum yield farmer can get from the acre? How many trees must be planted to generate maximum yield? Determine yield from each tree in given case?
