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.

Find the value of x
balu736 [363]

Equals 180 because the exterior angle in question is equal to the sum of the other two angles in the triangle. In other words, the other two angles in the triangle (the ones that add up to form the exterior angle) must combine with the angle in the bottom right corner to make a 180 degree angle.

-----------------------------------

Add whole numbers.

2x + 1 + 37 + 118 = 180

Add whole number (if there is any).

2x + 38 +118 = 180

Subtract 156 from both sides to have one side have a variable.

2x + 156 = 180

     -156     -156

Divide both sides by 2 because you don't need the whole number with the variable.

2x = 24

---    ----

2       2

You get the answer as 12.

x = 12

Check:

2(12) + 1 + 37 + 118 = 180

24 + 1 + 37 + 118 = 180

25 + 37 + 118 = 180

62 + 118 = 180

180 = 180

What segment is congruent to AC?<br> A. BD<br> B. BE<br> C. CE<br> D. none
Phoenix [80]
You can find the segment congruent to AC by finding another segment with the same length. So first, you need to find the length of AC.

   C - A = AC
0 - (-6) = AC   Cancel out the double negative
  0 + 6 = AC
        6 = AC

Now, find another segment that also has a length of 6.

   D - B = BD
2 - (-2) = BD   Cancel out the double negative
  2 + 2 = BD
        4 = BD
        4 ≠ 6

   E - B = BE
4 - (-2) = BE   Cancel out the double negative
  4 + 2 = BE 
        6 = BE
        6 = 6

So, the segment congruent to AC is B. BE .
