Answer:
n = all real numbers
Step-by-step explanation:
7n+12=1/2(14n+24)
multiply each side by 2
2(7n+12)=2*1/2(14n+24)
distribute
14n+24 = 14n + 24
subtract 14n from each side
14n-14n+24 = 14n-14n + 24
24=24
this is always true
n = all real numbers
Answer:
The objective function in terms of one number, x is
S(x) = 4x + (12/x)
The values of x and y that minimum the sum are √3 and 4√3 respectively.
Step-by-step explanation:
Two positive numbers, x and y
x × y = 12
xy = 12
S(x,y) = 4x + y
We plan to minimize the sum subject to the constraint (xy = 12)
We can make y the subject of formula in the constraint equation
y = (12/x)
Substituting into the objective function,
S(x,y) = 4x + y
S(x) = 4x + (12/x)
We can then find the minimum.
At minimum point, (dS/dx) = 0 and (d²S/dx²) > 0
(dS/dx) = 4 - (12/x²) = 0
4 - (12/x²) = 0
(12/x²) = 4
4x² = 12
x = √3
y = 12/√3 = 4√3
To just check if this point is truly a minimum
(d²S/dx²) = (24/x³) = (8/√3) > 0 (minimum point)
I know its a long problem but i have to shiw how i got my answer.
Answer:
y=3/2x-7
Step-by-step explanation:
the equation of the line for slope-intercept form is y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y intercept.
we are given two points: (4,-1) and (8,5)
the equation for slope is (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
label the points:
x1=4
y1=-1
x2=8
y2=5
now substitute into the equation:
m=(5--1)/(8-4)
m=6/4
m=3/2
the slope of the line is 3/2
here is our equation so far:
y=3/2x+b
we need to find b
since the equation will pass through the points, we can substitute either one into the equation to find b
let's use (4,-1) as an example
substitute into the equation
-1=3/2(4)+b
-1=6+b
-7=b
the y intercept is -7
so the equation is y=3/2x-7
hope this helps!
