U/4 = 8/3Round your answer to the nearest tenth.u=____

1 answer:

4 0

Find a common denominator (12).

u/4=8/3
3u/12=32/12
Multiply each side by twelve to get rid of the denominator.
3u=32
u=1 2/3
1 and two-thirds equals 1.6666666 in decimal form, so the nearest tenth would be 1.7

Find two positive numbers satisfying the given requirements. the sum of the first and twice the second is 240 and the product is

MArishka [77]

The two numbers are 120 and 60

Let's call the two numbers x and y. The first sentence translates into

$x+2y = 240$

from which we can derive

$x = 240-2y$

So, their product can be written as

$xy = (240-2y)y = 240y-2y^2$

This expression is a quadratic polynomial with negative leading coefficient, so it represents a parabola concave down. So, the vertex of the parabola is its maximum, which we can find as usual: given the parabola $ax^2+bx+c$ , its extreme point is located at $x = \frac{-b}{2a}$ .

So, in your case, since $a = -2$ and $b = 240$ , the maximum is located at

$y = \frac{-240}{-4} = 60$

Now that we know y, we can deduce the value of x:

$x = 240-2y \implies x = 240-120 = 120$

So, the two numbers are 120 and 60
