Y = kx, where k is the constant of proportionality.

We need to find k as our first step.

35 = k140

35/140 = k

1/4 = k

We can now find y when x = 70.

y = kx

y = (1/4)(70)

y = 70/4

This fraction can be simplified or reduced more.

The number 2 is the GCF of 70 and 4.

70 ÷ 2 = 35

4 ÷ 2 = 2

Answer:

y = 35/2

Find the volume of the largest rectangular box in the first octant with three faces in the coordinate planes and one vertex in t
makkiz [27]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x + 2y + 3z = 12

z=\frac{12-x-2y}{3}

Volume = V=f(x,y) = xy(\frac{12-x-2y}{3} )

find partial derivatives using product rule

f_x =\frac{y}{3} (12-2x-2y)\\f_y = \frac{x}{3} (12-x-4y)

i.e.

Using maximum for partial derivatives, we equate first partial derivative to 0.

y=0 or x+y =6

x=0 or x+4y =12

Simplify to get y =2, x = 4

thus critical points are (4,2) (6,0) (0,3)

Of these D the II derivative test gives

D<0 only for (4,2)

Hence maximum volume is when x=4, y=2, z= 4/3

Max volume is = 4(2)(4/3) = 32/3

ANSWER ASAP PLEASE RIGHT ANSWER GETS BRAINLIST
Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

We can set up equation for this one.

Let's say the number is X.

the sum of X and 14 can be expressed as : X+14

five times the sum of X and 14 can be expressed as 5(x+14)

and 5(X+14) = 80

5(x+14) = 80\\x+14 = 80 \div 5 = 16\\x = 16-14 = 2

The number  is 2
