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:

  (3)  y = (x -3)²

Step-by-step explanation:

Try the first value of x in each function:

  (1)  y = 3² -3 ≠ 0

  (2)  y = (3 +3)² ≠ 0

  (3)  y = (3 -3)² = 0 . . . . . . matches the table value for f(3)

  (4)  y = 3² +3 ≠ 0

__

The only viable choice is (3).

Help<br><br> (5a-3a^3)*(4a-1)
ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

-12a^{4}  + 3a^{3} + 20a^{2} -5a

Step-by-step explanation:

(5a-3a^{3} ) • (4a-1)

Let's use FOIL (first, outer, inner, last) to solve this. We'll multiply the terms by one another in that fashion.

20a^{2} - 5a - 12a^{4} + 3a^{3}

Rearrange in decreasing exponents.

-12a^{4}  + 3a^{3} + 20a^{2} -5a
