Find the maximum value of f(x, y)-xy subject to x + 2y 52.
fmax=______
Also find the corresponding point
(x, y)=__________.
Answer:
fmax = xy = 26 × 13 = 338
(x,y) = (26,13)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
f(x, y) = xy
subject to x + 2y = 52
So;
x = 52 - 2y
and;
f(x, y) = xy
f(x, y) = (52- 2y) y
f(x, y) = 52y - 2y²
In order to maximize this function;
52y - 2y² = 0
26 y - y² = 0
26 - 2y = 0
-2y = -26
y = -26/-2
y = 13
Again:
x = 52 - 2y
x = 52 - 2(13)
x = 52 - 26
x = 26
fmax = xy = 26 × 13 = 338
(x,y) = (26,13)
6.52
65.2
0.652
order it least to greatest which comes first?
Answer:
Hey! The answer will be below!! :)
Step-by-step explanation:
In least to greatest the answer will be....
0.652, 6.52, 65.2
0.652 comes first because since the decimal point is between the 0 and 6
It’s also because 0 is less than 6 and 65.
Here is a easy way to do this, when you have this kind of question.
First look where the decimal is.
Pretend it’s a whole number like, 0.652 becomes 0
And 6.52 becomes 6, also 65.2 becomes 65
You have to use the decimal to find out least to greatest, also you will have to round the number.
So remember, when ever you have this kind of question...after the decimal point like 65.2 you take away the .2 and just have 65....this will help you do least to greatest faster! :)
Hope this helps!
Answer:
0.652, 6.52, 65.2
Step-by-step explanation:
You have to round to find the answer in a easy way.
Least to greatest would be 0.652, 6.52, 65.2

Find the perimeter of an equilateral triangle where area is 72cm.
Answer:
38.68 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Perimeter of an equilateral triangle : P = 3a
Area of an equilateral triangle : A = [tex]\frac{\sqrt{3} }{4}a^2[/tex]
a = side length
The area is given, solve for a.
[tex]72= \frac{\sqrt{3} }{4}a^2[/tex]
[tex]a = 12.894839[/tex]
The side length is 12.894839 centimeters.
Find the perimeter.
P = 3a
P = 3(12.894839)
P = 38.684517 ≈ 38.68
The perimeter is 38.68 centimeters.
Find the length L of the curve

from the point P(0,0) to the point Q(4,2)
Answer:
4.647 to the nearest thousandth.
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for the length of an arc between x = a and x = b is
a
∫ √( 1 + (f'(x))^2) dx
b
Here f(x) = √x so
we have ∫ (√( 1 + (1/2 x^-1/2))^2 ) between x = 0 and x = 4.
= ∫ ( √( 1 + 1/(4x)) dx between x = 0 and x = 4.
This is not easy to integrate but some software I have gives me the following
length = √17 + 1/8 log(33 + 1/8 √17)
= 4.647.
An article reports that when each football helmet in a random sample of 34 suspension-type helmets was subjected to a certain impact test, 24 showed damage. Let p denote the proportion of all helmets of this type that would show damage tested in the prescribed manner.
Required:
a. Calculate a 99% Cl for p.
b. What sample size would be required for the width of a 99% Cl to beat most .10, irrespective of p ?
Answer:
a
[tex]0.5043 < p <0.9075[/tex]
b
[tex]n = 24[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question we are told that
The sample size is n = 34
The number of damaged helmets is x = 24
Now the proportion of damaged helmets is mathematically represented as
[tex]\r p = \frac{k}{n }[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]\r p = \frac{24}{34 }[/tex]
[tex]\r p = 0.7059[/tex]
Given that the confidence level is 99% the level of significance can be evaluated as
[tex]\alpha = 100 - 99[/tex]
[tex]\alpha = 1[/tex]%
[tex]\alpha = 0.01[/tex]
Next we obtain the critical value of [tex]\frac{\alpha }{2}[/tex] from the normal distribution table, the value is [tex]Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } = 2.58[/tex]
The reason we are obtaining critical values of [tex]\frac{\alpha }{2}[/tex] instead of [tex]\alpha[/tex] is because
[tex]\alpha[/tex] represents the area under the normal curve where the confidence level interval ( [tex]1-\alpha[/tex]) did not cover which include both the left and right tail while
[tex]\frac{\alpha }{2}[/tex]is just the area of one tail which what we required to calculate the margin of error
The margin of error is mathematically represented as
[tex]MOE = Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } * \sqrt{\frac{\r p ( 1 - \r p)}{n} }[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]MOE = 2.58 * \sqrt{\frac{ 0.7059 ( 1 - 0.7059)}{34} }[/tex]
[tex]MOE =0.2016[/tex]
The 99% confidence interval for p is mathematically represented as
[tex]p-MOE < p < p + MOE[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]0.7059 - 0.2016 < p <0.7059 + 0.2016[/tex]
[tex]0.5043 < p <0.9075[/tex]
The sample size required for the width of a 99% Cl to beat most 0.10, irrespective of p ? is mathematically represented as
[tex]n \ge \frac{ Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } * \sqrt{\r p (1- \r p )} }{\frac{\sigma }{2} }[/tex]
Here [tex]\sigma = 0.10[/tex] telling us that the deviation from the sample proportion is set to 0.10 irrespective of the value of [tex]\r p[/tex]
so the sample size for this condition is
[tex]n \ge \frac{ 2.58 * \sqrt{ 0.7059 (1- 0.7059)} }{\frac{0.10 }{2} }[/tex]
[tex]n \ge 23.51[/tex]
=> [tex]n = 24[/tex]

Answer:
A 23 of people who prefer plan 1 are from the 35-45 age group and 42% of people from the 46-55 age group prefer plan 2.
Step-by-step explanation:
add everyone who prefers plan 1 = 60
age 36-45 / total of plan 1 = 14/60 = .23 or 23%
add everyone in age group 46-55 = 50
in age group 46-55 and prefers plan 2 = 21 / 50 = 0.42 or 42%
Answer:
[tex]\boxed{\mathrm{Option \ B}}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Total people in 36 - 45 age group = 50
Who prefer plan I = 14
%age of people preferring plan 1 among 36-45 age group:
=> [tex]\frac{14}{50} * 100[/tex]
=> 0.28 * 100%
=> 28%
Now,
Total People in 46-55 age group = 50
Those who prefer plan II = 21
%age of people preferring plan II among 46-55 age group:
=> [tex]\frac{21}{50} * 100[/tex]
=> 0.42 * 100%
=> 42%

Brenda is going from $(-4,5)$ to $(5,-4)$, but she needs to stop by the origin on the way. How far does she have to travel?
Answer:
[tex]\boxed{D = 6.4 units}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
She stops by (0,0)
She further needs to travel to (5,-4)
Let's calculate the distance using the Distance Formula:
Distance Formula = [tex]\sqrt{(x2-x1)^2+(y2-y1)^2}[/tex]
D = [tex]\sqrt{(5-0)^2+(-4-0)^2}[/tex]
D = [tex]\sqrt{(5)^2+(-4)^2}[/tex]
D = [tex]\sqrt{25+16}[/tex]
D = [tex]\sqrt{41}[/tex]
D = 6.4 units
She needs to travel 6.4 units more.
Answer:
2sqrt41
Step-by-step explanation:
Origin=(0,0)
Brenda wants to go from (-4,5) to (0,0) and then to (5,-4). So we need to calculate the distance from (-4,5) to (0,0), and the distance of (0,0) to (5,-4).
The distance formula is sqrt (x2-xs1)^2+(y2-y1`)^2.
So: sqrt (5-0)^2+(-4-0)^2
sqrt (5^2+-4^2)
sqrt 25+16
sqrt 41
Now we need to figure out the distance from (0,0) to (5,-4)
sqrt(0-5)^2+(0-(-4))^2
sqrt(-5^2+4^2)
sqrt 25+16
sqrt 41
sqrt 41+sqrt 41
2sqrt41

Mai invests $20,000 at age 20. She hopes the investment will be worth $500,000 when she turns 40. If the interest compounds continuously, approximately what rate of growth will she need to achieve her goal? Round to the nearest tenth of a percent.
Answer:
[tex]\approx[/tex] 17.5% per annum
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Money invested = $20,000 at the age of 20 years.
Money expected to be $500,000 at the age of 40.
Time = 40 - 20 = 20 years
Interest is compounded annually.
To find:
Rate of growth = ?
Solution:
First of all, let us have a look at the formula for compound interest.
[tex]A = P \times (1+\frac{R}{100})^T[/tex]
Where A is the amount after T years compounding at a rate of R% per annum. P is the principal amount.
Here, We are given:
P = $20,000
A = $500,000
T = 20 years
R = ?
Putting all the values in the formula:
[tex]500000 = 20000 \times (1+\frac{R}{100})^{20}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{500000}{20000} =(1+\frac{R}{100})^{20}\\\Rightarrow 25 =(1+\frac{R}{100})^{20}\\\Rightarrow \sqrt[20]{25} =1+\frac{R}{100}\\\Rightarrow 1.175 = 1+0.01R\\\Rightarrow R \approx17.5\%[/tex]
So, the correct answer is [tex]\approx[/tex] 17.5% per annum and compounding annually.

what is the area of the shaded region between the two z-scores indicated in the diagram? z=-1.24 and z= 0.84
Answer:
0.6921 (69.21%)
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of the shaded region between the two z-scores refer to the probability between the two z-scores value( The total area under a standard normal distribution curve is 1)
So the area we want to determine in this case is as follows;
P(-1.24<z<0.84) = P(z<0.84) - P(z<-1.24)
What we use to calculate this finally is the standard normal distribution table
We use this to get these values so we can calculate the probability.
Using the standard normal distribution table;
P(-1.24<z<0.84) = 0.69206 which is approximately 0.6921
Farmer Hanson is putting together fruit baskets. He has 240 apples and 150 pears. What is the largest number of baskets he can put together so that he can have the same number of apples and same number of pears in each basket considering no fruit is left out?HELP NOWWWWW
Answer: The largest number of baskets he can put together so that he can have the same number of apples and the same number of pears in each basket considering no fruit is left out is 30.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given, Farmer has 240 apples and 150 pears.
The largest number of baskets he can put together so that he can have the same number of apples and the same number of pears in each basket considering no fruit is left out = GCF(240,150)
Prime factorization of 240 and 150 :
[tex]240=2\times2\times2\times2\times3\times5\\150=2\times3\times5\times5[/tex]
Greatest common factor of 240 and 150 = [tex]2\times3\times5=30[/tex]
Hence, the largest number of baskets he can put together so that he can have the same number of apples and the same number of pears in each basket considering no fruit is left out is 30.
A population consists of 8 items. The number of different simple random samples of size 3 that can be selected from this population is
Answer:
The correct answer will be "56".
Step-by-step explanation:
Use a combination of 8 things taken 3 at a time :
⇒ [tex]8_{C_{3}}[/tex]
⇒ [tex]\frac{8!}{(3!(8 - 3)!)}[/tex]
⇒ [tex]\frac{8!}{(3!5!)}[/tex]
⇒ [tex]\frac{8\times 7\times 6\times 5\times 4\times 3\times 2\times 1}{3\times 2\times 1}[/tex]
⇒ [tex]8\times 7[/tex]
⇒ [tex]56[/tex]
Using the principle of combination, the number of different random samples of size 3 that can be selected is 56.
Using the principle of combination :
nCr = [n! ÷ (n-r)! r!]Hence, we have ;
8C3 = [8! ÷ (8 - 3)! 3!]
8C3 = [8! ÷ 5!3!]
8C3 = (8 × 7 × 6) ÷ (3 × 2 × 1)
8C3 = 8 × 7
8C3 = 56
Hence, there are 56 different possible samples.

What are the vertical asymptote(s) of y= (x-6)/(x+8) (x-7)
Answer:
x = -8 and x= 7
Step-by-step explanation:
recall that for a rational expression, the vertical asymptotes occur at x-values that causes the expression to become undefined. These occur when the denominator becomes zero.
Hence the asymptototes will occur in x-locations where the denominator , i.e
(x+8)(x-7) = 0
solving this, we get
(x+8) = 0 ----> x = -8
or
(x-7) = 0 ------> x = 7
hence the asymptotes occur x = -8 and x= 7
Answer:
x = -8 and x = 7.
Step-by-step explanation:
The vertical asymptotes are lines that the function will never touch.
Since no number can be divided by 0, the function will not touch points where the denominator of the function is equal to 0.
[tex]\frac{x - 6}{(x + 8)(x - 7)}[/tex], so the vertical asymptotes will be where (x + 8) = 0 and (x - 7) = 0.
x + 8 = 0
x = -8
x - 7 = 0
x = 7
The vertical asymptotes are at x = -8 and x = 7.

Which of the following points is collinear with (2, 1) and (3, 3)?
O (0,0)
O (1,-1)
O (4,4)
O(-1,-2)
HELP !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!??????????!!!!!!!!!
Answer:
O (1,-1) is collinear with (2, 1) and (3, 3).
Step-by-step explanation:
equation of line in point slope form is
y-y1/x-x1 = m
where m is the slope of line
slope of line is given by
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
where(x1,x2) and (y1,y2) are points on the given line
_______________________________________
Given point
(2, 1) and (3, 3)?
m = 3-1/3-2 = 2
Equation of line
y-1/x-2 = 2
=> y-1 = 2(x-2)
=> y-1 = 2x-4
=> y= 2x-4+1
=> y = 2x-3
col-linear points are one which lie on the same line
To solve the problem we will check which of the given points satisfy the equation of line derived above.
y = 2x-3
(0,0)
if we put value of x = 0 the above equation we should get y =0
y = 2*0 -3 = -3
since -3 is not equal to 0, hence (0,0) is not collinear with (2, 1) and (3, 3).
1,-1
y = 2*1 -3 = -1
since -1 is equal to -1, hence (1,-1) is collinear with (2, 1) and (3, 3).
(4,4)
y = 2*4-3 = 5
since 5 is not equal to 4 , hence (4,4) is not collinear with (2, 1) and (3, 3).
(-1,2)
y = 2*-1 -3 = -5
since -5 is not equal to 2, hence (-1,2) is not collinear with (2, 1) and (3, 3).
Hence answer is O (1,-1) s collinear with (2, 1) and (3, 3).

Find the distance between (-3,5) and (-9,5).
Answer:
6 units
Step-by-step explanation:
Distance between 2 points
[tex] = \sqrt{(x1 - x2)^{2} + (y1 - y2)^{2} } [/tex]
Thus, distance between (-3, 5) and (-9, 5)
[tex] = \sqrt{( - 3 - ( - 9))^{2} + (5 - 5)^{2} } \\ = \sqrt{( - 3 + 9)^{2} } \\ = \sqrt{6 ^{2} } \\ = 6[/tex]
Alternatively, notice that this line is a horizontal line as both points have the same y-coordinate of 5.
Thus, distance between the 2 points
= -3 -(-9)
= -3 +9

Answer:
A. The series CONVERGESStep-by-step explanation:
If [tex]\sum a_n[/tex] is a series, for the series to converge/diverge according to ratio test, the following conditions must be met.
[tex]\lim_{n \to \infty} |\frac{a_n_+_1}{a_n}| = \rho[/tex]
If [tex]\rho[/tex] < 1, the series converges absolutely
If [tex]\rho > 1[/tex], the series diverges
If [tex]\rho = 1[/tex], the test fails.
Given the series [tex]\sum\left\ {\infty} \atop {1} \right \frac{n^2}{5^n}[/tex]
To test for convergence or divergence using ratio test, we will use the condition above.
[tex]a_n = \frac{n^2}{5^n} \\a_n_+_1 = \frac{(n+1)^2}{5^{n+1}}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{a_n_+_1}{a_n} = \frac{{\frac{(n+1)^2}{5^{n+1}}}}{\frac{n^2}{5^n} }\\\\ \frac{a_n_+_1}{a_n} = {{\frac{(n+1)^2}{5^{n+1}} * \frac{5^n}{n^2}\[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:
help I don't understand
Answer:
x = 9.9 in.
2 of the same type of triangle = 1 square
To find x, you have to remember that a square is made from two right triangles combined. In this photo, we can see that the length and width of the triangle have the same value (the two sides that point up and to the right), so that means if we multiply the area by two, then we get the area of a square or two of the same triangle's area.
Step 1:
To find the area of the square/two triangles, multiply the area by two.
[tex]49*2=98[/tex]
98 is the area of the square.
Step 2:
Now we have to find the square of 98 (find two numbers that are the same that multiply to 98).
[tex]\sqrt{98}[/tex]
When we solve this square, we find out that it is not a perfect number. So:
[tex]\sqrt{98} =\\9.89949[/tex]
That is just an estimate of x, so when we round to the nearest tenth, we get 9.9.
To check our answer, multiply 9.9 by 9.9 and we get 98.01, but since we rounded our answer, 98.01 is correct. If we round that to 98 and divide by 2, we get our original area of one triangle, 49.
x = 9.9
Answer:
9.9
Step-by-step explanation:
Well let's work backwards.
If the area is 49 then we do 49*2 because after doing b*h you divide by 2.
So 49*2 = 98.
If the b and h is the same then we find the square root of 98,
which is 9.899494937.
Thus,
the answer is 9.9 rounded to the nearest tenth.

One variable in a study measures how many serious motor vehicle accidents a subject has had in the past year. Explain why the mean would likely be more useful than the median for summarizing the responses of the 60 subjects.
Answer:
The mean is more useful in this case because it would give an average value of the accidents for example 3 accidents per year but the median would give the middle value which may be 5 or greater or much lesser than the average. It would not give an approximate value of occurrences.
Step-by-step explanation:
Mean is the averaage of all the values.
Median is the value of the data which gives an estimate of the middle value. Middle values can be different than the average values.
The mean is
1) rigorously defined by a mathematical formula.
2) based on all the observations of the data
3) affected by extreme values
The meadian is
1) computed for open end classes like income etc.
2) not rigorously defined
3) is located when the values are not capable of quantitative measurment.
4) is not affected by extreme values.
The mean is more useful in this case because it would give an average value of the accidents for example 3 accidents per year but the median would give the middle value which may be 5 or greater or much lesser than the average. It would not give an approximate value of occurrences.
An accountant receives a salary of $262,000 per year. During the year, he plans to spend $99,000 on his mortgage, $54,000 on food, $32,000 on clothing, $41,000 on household expenses, and $28,000 on other expenses. With the money that is left, he expects to buy as many shares of stock at $250 per share as possible. Using the equation below, determine how many shares will he be able to buy? What was the sum of the accountant's expenses?
Answer:
Number of shares = 32 shares
Accountant total expenses= $254000
Step by step explanation:
The accountant salary is $262000
He spends $99000 on mortage
Spends $54000 on foods
Spends $32000 on clothing
Spends $41000 on household
Spends $28000 on others
Total expenses= 99000+54000+32000+41000+28000
Total expenses =$254000
Remaining money = 262000-254000
Remaining money= $8000
If shares = $250 for one
To know the amount he buys with the remaining money
We divide remaining money by shares cost
= $8000/$250
= 32 shares
what’s the opposite of negative two
Answer: The answer is two
Step-by-step explanation: If you look for opposites of a number its either negative or positive. So when the answer is negative, the opposite is positive and if the answer is positive, the opposite is negative.

Which of the following is the standard deviation of the random variable x
Answer: B. 1.414
Step-by-step explanation:
let x be the random variable denotes the number of die.
Numbers on 5-faced die = 1,2,3,4,5
Probability of getting any number = [tex]\dfrac{1}{5}[/tex]
Mean = [tex]\bar {x}=\sum p_ix_i[/tex]
[tex]\\\\\Rightarrow\bar{x}=\dfrac{1}{5}(1)+\dfrac{1}{5}(2)+\dfrac{1}{5}(3)+\dfrac{1}{5}(4)+\dfrac{1}{5}(5)\\\\=\dfrac{1}{5}(1+2+3+4+5)\\\\=\dfrac{1}{5}(15)=3[/tex]
Standard deviation: [tex]\sigma=\sum \sqrt{\dfrac{(x_i-\bar{x})^2}{N}}[/tex]
[tex]=\sqrt{\dfrac{(1-3)^2+(2-3)^2+(3-3)^2+(4-3)^2+(5-3)^2}{5}}\\\\=\sqrt{\dfrac{4+1+0+1+4}{5}}\\\\=\sqrt{\dfrac{10}{5}}\\\\=\sqrt{2}\approx1.414[/tex]
Hence, the standard deviation of the random variable x is 1.414.
Thus, the correct option is B.
