Supervisor a earns a flat rate of $25 per hour, while supervisor b earns $20 per hour for the first 30 hours and then 50% more f

or each additional hour within a work week. if both supervisors worked the same number of hours and earned the same pay during one work week, how many hours did each supervisor work in that week?

Let same number of hours = x, 
since the salary earned is also the same, then
Salary of supervisor A = $25x
Salary of supervisor B = $20(30)+$30(x-30)
Equating
25x=600+30(x-30)
30x-25x=900-600
5x=300
x=60 hours
Check:
Salary of supervisor A = 25*60=1500
Salary of supervisor B =  20*30+30*(60-30)=600+900=1500, ok.

Set up and evaluate the optimization problems. (Enter your answers as comma-separated lists.) Find two positive integers such th
alexira [117]

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

Let x and y be two positive integers and their sum is 14:

X + y = 14

And the sum of square of this number is:

f = x2 + y2

 = x2+ (14 – x)2

Differentiate with respect to x, we get:

F’(x) = [ x2 + (14 – x)2]’ = 0

        2x + 2(14-x)(-1) = 0

        2x +( 28 – 2x)(-1) = 0

     2x – 28 +2x = 0

        2x + 2x = 28

         4x = 28

       X = 7

Hence, y = 14 – x = 14 -7 = 7

Now taking second derivative test:

F”(x) > 0

For x = y = 7,f reaches its maximum value:

(7)2 + (7)2 = 49 + 49

                   = 98

F at endpoints x Є [ 0, 14]

F(0) = 02 + (14 – 0)2

       =  196

F(14) = (14)2 + (14 – 14)2

  = 196

Hence the sum of squares of these numbers is minimum when x = y = 7

And maximum when numbers are 0 and 14.
