Ab=81, a=81/b

s=a+b using a from above in this we get:

s(b)=81/b +b

s(b)=(81+b^2)/b

ds/db=(2b*b-81-b^2)/b^2

ds/db=(2b^2-81-b^2)/b^2

ds/db=(b^2-81)/b^2

d2s/db2=(2b^3-2b^3+81)/b^4

d2s/db2=81/b^4 since b is positive we know that the acceleration is positive so that when ds/db=0 it is a minimum for s(b)

ds/db=0 only when b^2-81=0, b^2=81, b=9

The two positive numbers are 9 and 9.

Answer:

c = 26

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a right triangle, so we can use the Pythagorean theorem.

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse

10^2 + 24^2 = c^2

100 + 576 = c^2

676 = c^2

Take the square root of each side

sqrt(676) = sqrt(c^2)

26 = c

Daniel can by a particular brand of juice in a 6 ounce bottle or a 10 ounce bottle the juice in a 10 ounce bottle contains 150 c
olasank [31]

Answer: There are 90 calories in a 6-ounce bottle.

Step-by-step explanation:

We assume that the quantity of juice in the bottle is directly proportional to the number of calories it contains.

Given: 10 ounces of juice has 150 calories.

i.e. 1 ounce of juice has \dfrac{150}{10} calories.

i.e. 1 ounce of juice has 15 calories.

Now, In 6 ounce of juice, the number if calories = 15 x 6 = 90 calories

Hence, there are 90 calories in a 6-ounce bottle.
