Answer:

The answer is $\frac{-1}{24}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{1}{3}-\frac{3}{8}$

So first we have to find the common denominator, which is 24.

So we divide the denominators by 24 and multiply it by the numerator.

$\frac{8-9}{24}$ = $\frac{-1}{24}$

Select the two values of x that are roots of this equation.<br>x + 2x - 6 = 0

VLD [36.1K]

For this case we must solve the following quadratic equation:

$x ^ 2 + 2x-6 = 0$

Where:

$a = 1\\b = 2\\c = -6$

The solution is given by:

$x = \frac {-b \pm \sqrt {b ^ 2-4 (a) (c)}} {2a}$

Substituting:

$x = \frac {-2 \pm \sqrt {2 ^ 2-4 (1) (- 6)}} {2 (1)}\\x = \frac {-2 \pm \sqrt {4 + 24}} {2}\\x = \frac {-2 \pm \sqrt {28}} {2}\\x = \frac {-2 \pm \sqrt {2 ^ 2 * 7}} {2}\\x = \frac {-2 \pm2 \sqrt {7}} {2}\\x = -1 \pm \sqrt {7}$

Thus, we have two roots:

$x_ {1} = - 1+ \sqrt {7}\\x_ {2} = - 1- \sqrt {7}$

ANswer:

$x_ {1} = - 1+ \sqrt {7}\\x_ {2} = - 1- \sqrt {7}$

A scenario in which the optimal objective function contour line coincides with one of the binding constraint lines on the bounda

tangare [24]

Answer: Alternative optimal

Step-by-step explanation:

Alternative optimal solution means that

there are several optimal solutions that can be used to get identical objective function value.

Therefore, a scenario whereby the optimal objective function contour line coincides with one of the binding constraint lines on the boundary of the feasible region will lead to alternative optimal solution.
