Let x = the numbers of girls
thus
the numbers of boys = 2x
x + 2x = 27
3x = 27
x = 9
2x = 2 . 9 =18
girls = 9 & boys = 18
answer:
w = (-m+y)/y
Step-by-step explanation:
y-wy = m
-wy = m-y
y = -(m-y)/w
wy= -m + y
w = (-m+y)/y
.
Minimum value is equal to x=8, y=-4First find the derivative of the original equation which equals= d/dx(x^2-16x+60) = 2x - 16at x=8, f'(x), the derivative of x equals zero, so therefore, at point x = 8, we have a minimum value.Just plug in 8 to the original equation to find the answer for the minimum value.
