Math problem, can’t understand?

Someone please help me with this question. I don’t know what equations I need to use for it.

An apple orchard has an average yield of 36 Imperial bushels of apples/tree if tree density is 22 trees/acre. For each unit increase in tree density, the yield decreases by 2 Imperial bushels. Letting x denote the number of trees beyond 22/acre, find a function in x that gives the yield of apples.

Air Filter Help! 6 inch hydroponic fan with carbon filter carbon dust problem?

So I bought a 6 inch hydroponic fan with a giant carbon filter for my room. The problem is the carbon dust gets all over my room.

What am I suppose to do to get rid of the dust? I am using it to cycle the stale air in my room and the dust gets all over the place.

Case Scenerio: Do you think I have an eating disorder?

During infantcy I had an few accident that tossed my posture off a bit, after I grew I fixed the problem and have excellent posture but I’m 5’10″ and when I reach or exceed 134 lbs. I have tinnitus (ringing ear noises) and my jaw and joints crack and pop and I get TMJ problems. As a result I always try to keep myself between 126 to 130 lbs, I exercise daily (often over exercise) and am extremely fit, but I consume less than 600 calories per day and fast when I exceed 130 lbs. Even when weight is on me due to pure muscle mass I run into the same problems and feel horrible, so to keep weight I care less how the weight comes off as long as its off. I take supplemental vitamins and herbs daily and eat nutritously so my nutrition levels are quite high. I often think I am fat when exceeding 130 lbs. but that has become learned behavior to help me maintain weight. My bone ends at joints are slightly misformed so there isn’t a good solution. Do you think I am anorexic or have an ED?
Even though I consume less than 600 calories a day, I’d think the vitamins and herbs I take more than make up for any nutritional deficiency and my body absorbs such supplements quite well. Doctors are worthless in my opinion, I have a long history of them not doing much of anything good for me. Also, most anorexics don’t have a bottom weight limit they never go beyond and I never allow myself to go under 126 lbs. (I get nose bleeds at 124 lbs.).

When it comes to bone density and the like, I have anything but brittle bones, mine are very strong.

What is wrong in my fruit orchard?

I live in west central Alabama and have a small fruit orchard for canning and such. The oldest of the trees would be 5 years old this year and the youngest 2 years. I’m having a problem with trees and or portions of trees dying.

4year old Gala didn’t even swell the buds, it just sets there still in May
3year old Nectarine bloomed and leaved out to about 1 inch leaves and now every limb but one has died and the last one is on its way.
5year old Manchurian Bush apricot looks mostly Okay but two stalks died completely.
4year old Dwarf Cherry bloomed and set fruit then half the limbs died but the other half still look Okay
2year old Montmorency Chery bloomed and leafed out but half the tree died and after I cut it back the other half is now dieing 2 weeks later
4year old Blue Plumb bloomed and leafed then half the tree died and the other half looks anemic for a plumb tree.
3year old cross between a plumb and apricot didn’t bloom but leafed out and the entire tree died.

On the other hand I have more Nectarines, Apples and Pears that are mixed in with them that show no problems at all. They have set on fruit and look fine.

The symptoms on all trees are the same, the blooms or leaves just wilt, turn brown and die. Sometimes the whole tree and sometimes just part of it.

Now, we had a hard freeze in mid April, 28 degrees for four hours. Nothing showed up immediately after the freeze.

We had a very wet week during which we got over 11 inches of rain spread out almost daily, it may have been two weeks.

I have sprayed a lawn weed killer that was for broad weeds using my tow behind sprayer but the weed killer is only supposed to kill weeds if they are growing and becomes inert when it contacts soil.

I have also followed a regular spray schedule starting in early spring using dormant oils, cap tan, benelate, daconil, streptomycin, liquid lime and wettable sulfur. I have used these sprays on my other crops too which show no lasting effects of any of the above and seem fine (e.g. blackberries, raspberries, blueberries and grapes.) Any guesses about what is happening? My greatest puzzle is that the same thing is happening to so many different varieties while some are only partially hurt, some completely killed and some untouched. I had three nectarines and two of them are fine while the third one died and they are only a few feet from each other.

Has anyone used Instant Flower Garden?

I’m wanting to spruce up the yard of the house we are renting. I don’t want to spend a ton of money on perrenials and annuals that have already grown, so I started with one ring around a tree in the yard with just seeds and it’s working great. Problem is- I live out in the middle of nowhere and can’t find any seeds anymore, everyone’s sold out of just about everything except herbs. So I was wondering if anyone here has every used Instant Flower Garden, and what were their experiences with it?

Brown thumb?

I absolutely love to garden! It relaxes me and I enjoy getting my hands dirty. The problem is, once my plants have grown, they quickly die. I’ve even killed an aloe vera plant! I follow all the directions and never neglect my plants. I’ve subscribed to gardening magazines and have searched the internet on plant care. No use! The funny thing is, when someone else takes over tending my plants, they suddenly blossom and bloom! When I take over again, they wilt and die….Does anyone have any gardening secrets they want to share? Anything would be appreciated! I am currently growing an herb-kit (parsely, basil, thyme, etc. Got it at Wal-Mart) and a chamomile plant. Both of which are wilting and turning brown…*sniff*
