Answer:

The minimum distance of   √((195-19√33)/8)  occurs at  ((-1+√33)/4; (-1+√33)/4; (17-√33)/4)  and the maximum distance of  √((195+19√33)/8)  occurs at (-(1+√33)/4; - (1+√33)/4; (17+√33)/4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the two constraints are

g (x, y, z) = x + y + 2z − 8  

and  

h (x, y, z) = x ² + y² − z.

Any critical  point that we find during the Lagrange multiplier process will satisfy both of these constraints, so we  actually don’t need to find an explicit equation for the ellipse that is their intersection.

Suppose that (x, y, z) is any point that satisfies both of the constraints (and hence is on the ellipse.)

Then the distance from (x, y, z) to the origin is given by

√((x − 0)² + (y − 0)² + (z − 0)² ).

This expression (and its partial derivatives) would be cumbersome to work with, so we will find the the extrema  of the square of the distance. Thus, our objective function is

f(x, y, z) = x ² + y ² + z ²

and

∇f = (2x, 2y, 2z )

λ∇g = (λ, λ, 2λ)

µ∇h = (2µx, 2µy, −µ)

Thus the system we need to solve for (x, y, z) is

                           2x = λ + 2µx                         (1)

                           2y = λ + 2µy                       (2)

                           2z = 2λ − µ                          (3)

                           x + y + 2z = 8                      (4)

                           x ² + y ² − z = 0                     (5)

Subtracting (2) from (1) and factoring gives

                     2 (x − y) = 2µ (x − y)

so µ = 1  whenever x ≠ y. Substituting µ = 1 into (1) gives us λ = 0 and substituting µ = 1 and λ = 0  into (3) gives us  2z = −1  and thus z = − 1 /2 . Subtituting z = − 1 /2  into (4) and (5) gives us

                            x + y − 9 = 0

                         x ² + y ² +  1 /2  = 0

however, x ² + y ² +  1 /2  = 0  has no solution. Thus we must have x = y.

Since we now know x = y, (4) and (5) become

2x + 2z = 8

2x  ² − z = 0

so

z = 4 − x

z = 2x²

Combining these together gives us  2x²  = 4 − x , so

2x²  + x − 4 = 0 which has solutions

x =  (-1+√33)/4

and

x = -(1+√33)/4.

Further substitution yeilds the critical points  

((-1+√33)/4; (-1+√33)/4; (17-√33)/4)   and

(-(1+√33)/4; - (1+√33)/4; (17+√33)/4).

Substituting these into our  objective function gives us

f((-1+√33)/4; (-1+√33)/4; (17-√33)/4) = (195-19√33)/8

f(-(1+√33)/4; - (1+√33)/4; (17+√33)/4) = (195+19√33)/8

Thus minimum distance of   √((195-19√33)/8)  occurs at  ((-1+√33)/4; (-1+√33)/4; (17-√33)/4)  and the maximum distance of  √((195+19√33)/8)  occurs at (-(1+√33)/4; - (1+√33)/4; (17+√33)/4)

Answer:

Probability of finding girls given that only English students attend the subject =33/59

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that during English lesson, there is no other lesson ongoing. The probability of getting girls in that class only will be equivalent to 33/59 since we expect a total of 59 students out of which 33 will be girls. Similarly, in a Maths class given that only Maths students attend the class, probability of having a girl is 29/61 since out of all students, only 29 prefer Maths and the total class attendance is 61

What's the next number? 0 , 1/3 , 1/2 , 3/5 , 2/3​
madam [21]

Answer:

The next number of the series 0, 1/3, 1/2, 3/5, and 2/3 is 5/7

Step-by-step explanation:

The given numbers are;

0, 1/3, 1/2, 3/5, and 2/3

The number sequence is formed adding \dfrac{1}{\left (\dfrac{n^2 + n}{2} \right ) } to each (n - 1)th term to get the nth term number in the sequence, with the first term equal to 0, as follows;

For the 2nd term, the (n - 1)th term is 0, and n = 2, gives;

The

0 +\dfrac{1}{\left (\dfrac{2^2 + 2}{2} \right ) } = 0 + \dfrac{1}{3} = \dfrac{1}{3}

For the 3rd term, the (n - 1)th term is 1/3, and n = 3, gives;

\dfrac{1}{3} +\dfrac{1}{\left (\dfrac{3^2 + 3}{2} \right ) } = \dfrac{1}{3} + \dfrac{1}{6} = \dfrac{1}{2}

For the 4th term, the (n - 1)th term is 1/2, and n = 4, gives;

\dfrac{1}{2} +\dfrac{1}{\left (\dfrac{4^2 + 4}{2} \right ) } = \dfrac{1}{2} + \dfrac{1}{10} = \dfrac{3}{5}

For the 5th term, the (n - 1)th term is 3/5, and n = 5, gives;

\dfrac{3}{5} +\dfrac{1}{\left (\dfrac{5^2 + 5}{2} \right ) } = \dfrac{3}{5} + \dfrac{1}{15} = \dfrac{2}{3}

For the next or 6th term, the (n - 1)th term is 2/3, and n = 6, gives;

\dfrac{2}{3} +\dfrac{1}{\left (\dfrac{6^2 + 6}{2} \right ) } = \dfrac{2}{3} + \dfrac{1}{21} =  \dfrac{15}{21} = \dfrac{5}{7}

The next number of the series 0, 1/3, 1/2, 3/5, and 2/3 = 5/7.

Find the first, fourth, and tenth terms of the arithmetic sequence described by the given rule.
lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

The answer is option C.

<h3>-6, -5 2/5, -4 1/5</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

The arithmetic sequence is given by

A(n) =  - 6 + (n - 1)( \frac{1}{5} )

where n is the number of terms

<u>For</u><u> </u><u>the</u><u> first</u><u> </u><u>term</u>

n = 1

So we have

A(1) =  - 6 + (1 - 1)( \frac{1}{5} )

=  - 6 + (0)( \frac{1}{5} )

=  - 6

<u>For</u><u> </u><u>the</u><u> </u><u>fou</u><u>rth</u><u> term</u>

n = 4

A(4) =  - 6 + (4 - 1)( \frac{1}{5} )

=  - 6 + (3)( \frac{1}{5} )

=  - 5 \frac{2}{5}

<u>For</u><u> </u><u>the</u><u> </u><u>tenth</u><u> </u><u>term</u>

n = 10

A(10) =  - 6 + (10 - 1)( \frac{1}{5} )

=  - 6 + (9)( \frac{1}{5} )

=  - 4 \frac{1}{5}

Hope this helps you
