20 POINTS You are travelling in New York City and you need to take a cab from the airport to your hotel. A taxi company charges

a flat fee of $2.00 and an additional $0.75 per mile. The graph below shows points representing the total cost of the taxi ride.
Which equation best represents the total cost of the cab ride, y, and the distance, x, that you have traveled?
A. y = 0.75x + 2
B. y = 2x + 0.75
C. y = 0.75x - 2
D. y = 4.25x

Answer:

A, Because 0.75 is the amount per mile so it would have the x and then that leaves two more options it wouldn't be CC because you are not subtracting 2 that is the ultimate fee that you will have to pay no matter what. So that leaves you with A.

The function f (x comma y )equals 3 xy has an absolute maximum value and absolute minimum value subject to the constraint 3 x sq
zmey [24]

Answer:

The maximum value of f is 363, which is reached in (11,11) and (-11,-11) and the minimum value of f is -33, which is reached in (√11,-√11) and (-√11,√11)

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x,y) = 3xy, lets find the gradient of f. First lets compute the derivate of f in terms of x, thinking of y like a constant.

f_x(x,y) = 3y

In a similar way

f_y(x,y) = 3x

Thus,

\nabla{f} = (3y,3x)

The restriction is given by g(x,y) = 121, with g(x,y) = 3x²+3y²-5xy. The partial derivates of g are

[ŧex] g_x(x,y) = 6x-5y [/tex]

g_y(x,y) = 6y - 5x

Thus,

\nabla g(x,y) = (6x-5y,6y-5x)

For the Langrange multipliers theorem, we have that for an extreme (x0,y0) with the restriction g(x,y) = 121, we have that for certain λ,

  • f_x(x_0,y_0) = \lambda \, g_x(x0,y0)
  • f_y(x_0,y_0) = \lambda \, g_y(x_0,y_0)
  • g(x_0,y_0) = 121

This can be translated into

  • 3y = \lambda (6x-5y)
  • 3x = \lambda (-5x+6y)
  • 3 (x_0)^2 + 3(y_0)^2 - 5\,x_0y_0 = 121

If we sum the first two expressions, we obtain

3x + 3y = \lambda (x+y)

Thus, x = -y or λ=3.

If x were -y, then we can replace x for -y in both equations

3y = -11 λ y

-3y = 11 λ y, and therefore

y = 0, or λ = -3/11.

Note that y cant take the value 0 because, since x = -y, we have that x = y = y, and g(x,y) = 0. Therefore, equation 3 wouldnt hold.

Now, lets suppose that λ=3, if that is the case, we can replace in the first 2 equations obtaining

  • 3y = 3(6x-5y) = 18x -15y

thus, 18y = 18x

y = x

and also,

  • 3x = 3(6y-5x) = 18y-15x

18x = 18y

x = y

Therefore, x = y or x = -y.

If x = -y:

Lets evaluate g in (-y,y) and try to find y

g(-y,y) = 3(-y)² + 3y*2 - 5(-y)y = 11y² = 121

Therefore,

y² = 121/11 = 11

y = √11 or y = -√11

The candidates to extremes are, as a result (√11,-√11), (-√11, √11). In both cases, f(x,y) = 3 √11 (-√11) = -33

If x = y:

g(y,y) = 3y²+3y²-5y² = y² = 121, then y = 11 or y = -11

In both cases f(11,11) = f(-11,-11) = 363.

We conclude that the maximum value of f is 363, which is reached in (11,11) and (-11,-11) and the minimum value of f is -33, which is reached in (√11,-√11) and (-√11,√11)

Here's this too!!!!!
Oksanka [162]

Answer:

6. (a-4)(a+9)

7. (3p+4)(p-2)

8. Will explain below.

9. (5b+4)(5b-4)

Step-by-step explanation:

HELLOOO IM BACK

6. -4*9 = -36 (the variable), 9-4 = 5 (a) , so a^2 +5a - 36 is fulfilled.

7. 4*-2 = -8, 4-2 = 2, so 3p^2 - 2p - 8 is fulfilled.

9. 25b^2 = (5b)^2

16 = 4^2

Using the difference of squares formula, a^2-b^2= (a+b)(a-b)
