The two positive numbers are 36 and 72 which gives a sum equal to 108 and the product of 36 and the square of 72 is a maximum.

Any integer greater than zero is considered a positive number. A positive number can either be written as a number or with the "+" symbol in front of it.

Let us consider the two positive real numbers as x and y. Then, their sum is written as,

x+y=108

Then, y=108-x

And the product is written as,

P=xy²

Substitute value of y in the above equation, we get,

\begin{aligned}P&=x(108-x)^2\\&=x(11664-216x+x^2)\\&=11664x-216x^2+x^3\\&=x^3-216x^2+11664x\end{aligned}

Now, differentiate P with respect to x, and we get,

\begin{aligned}\frac{dP}{dx}&=3x^2-432x+11664\\&=x^2-144x+3888\end{aligned}

Solving the above equation to zero, we get,

\begin{aligned}x^2-144x+3888&=0\\x^2-36x-108x+3888&=0\\x(x-36)-108(x-36)&=0\\(x-108)(x-36)&=0\\x&=\text{108 or 36}\end{aligned}

Substitute values of x in y=108-x, to get values of y.

If we substitute x=108, we get the y value as zero which doesn't give the required solution.

But, if we substitute x=36, we get,

\begin{aligned}y&=108-36\\y&=72\end{aligned}

Thus, the two positive numbers are 36 and 72.

The perimeter of a triangle is 82 feet. One side of the triangle is 2 times the second side. The third side is 2 feet longer tha
andrezito [222]

Answer:

first side=40

second side=20

third side=22

Step-by-step explanation:

LET THE SIDES OF THE TRIANGLES BE y

Perimeter=82

first side=2 x y = 2y

second side=y

third side=2 +y

2y + y + 2 + y=82

4y+2=82

4y= 82-2

4y=80

y=80/4

y=20

first side=2y=2(20)=40

second side=y=20

third side= 2 + y= 2 + 20 = 22

Answer:

  y = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope is ...

  m = (7 -7)/(0 -4) = 0

The y-intercept is the point (0, 7), so the slope-intercept equation is ...

  y = mx +b

  y = 0·x +7

Simplifying this puts it in standard form:

  y = 7
