We are given the following information:

the sum of the first number cubed and the second number is 500

their product is a maximum

We are looking for the 2 missing numbers.

To answer this, let's represent the two numbers as x and w.

From the given, we can form the following equation:

x^3+w=500

We can then express y as:

w=500-x^3

We can express their product as:

x(500-x^3)=500x-x^4

To find the maximum value of x, let's solve for the derivative of -x^4 + 500 x.

\begin{gathered} f(x)=-x^4+500x \\ f^{\prime}(x)=-4x^3+500 \end{gathered}

Then we solve for the value of x where f'(x) = 0.

\begin{gathered} -4x^3+500=0 \\ -4x^3=-500 \\ x^3=125 \\ x=5 \end{gathered}

Then we use x = 5 to solve for the second number, w.

\begin{gathered} w=500-x^3 \\ w=500-5^3 \\ w=500-125 \\ w=375 \end{gathered}

Therefore, the two numbers are 5 and 375.

Y = -2x - 5
lions [1.4K]

Answer:

A. One line

Step-by-step explanation:

Let rearrange the system of equations into explicit forms:

y = -2\cdot x - 5

6\cdot x + 3\cdot y = -15

3\cdot y = -6\cdot x - 15

y = -2\cdot x - 5

The second equation is identical to the first one, which means that there is just one line.
