Let one of the numbers be x. The other number cab then be represented as 36-x (x+36-x = 36).
The product can then be represented as y = x(36-x) or y=36x-x2

The maximum or minimum is always on the axis of symmetry which has the formula x=-b/2a.
In our case, the axis of symmetry is -36/-2, so x=18.

If one number is 18 and the 2 numbers add to 36, the other number is 18 as well.
So the 2 numbers are 18 and 18 and the maximum product is 324,

Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

  60.65

Step-by-step explanation:

The Law of Cosines can help you figure this out. Call the given sides "a" and "b" and the given angle "C". Then the third side, "c" will satisfy the relation ...

  c² = a² + b² -2ab·cos(C)

  = 33² +37² -2·33·37·cos(120°) = 3679

  c = √3679 ≈ 60.65476 ≈ 60.65

The length of the third side is about 60.65 units.

You just have to add or subtract the percent of a number from the original

A) 5percent of 40=2 ( 0.05*40)
Since it’s increase add 2 to 40=42

F) 40percent of 25= 10 (0.4* 25)

Consider the line y= -7/4x+8
VARVARA [1.3K]
Perpendicular line has slope that multiplies to -1
paralel line has same slope

y=mx+b
slope=-7/4
perpendicular
4/7
(-7,-2)
-2=4/7(-7)+b
-2=-4+b
add 4 both sides
2=b
y=4/7x+2


paralel
y=-7/4x+b
-2=-7/4(-7)+b
-2=49/4+b
minus 49/4 from both sides (-2=-8/4)
-57/4=b
y=-7/4x-14.25


perpendicular
y=4/7x+2
paralel
y=-7/4x-14.25
