Suppose you have entered an 85​-mile biathlon that consists of a run and a bicycle race. during your​ run, your average velocity

is 9 miles per​ hour, and during your bicycle​ race, your average velocity is 29 miles per hour. you finish the race in 5 hours. what is the distance of the​ run

X= number of hours in run
y = number of hours in bike race

9x+29y=85
x+y=5, and y=5-x

Substituting 5-x for y in the first equation, we have 9x+ 29(5-x)=85 and 9x+145-29x=85, then subtracting 145 from both sides to get -20x=-60 and x=3, which is the amount of hours in the running race. Multiply that by 9 miles per hour to get 27 miles

Find all points on the portion of the plane x+y+z=5 in the first octant at which f(x, y, z) = xy2z2 has a maximum value.
irina1246 [14]
Lagrange multipliers:

L(x,y,z,\lambda)=xy^2z^2+\lambda(x+y+z-5)

L_x=y^2z^2+\lambda=0
L_y=2xyz^2+\lambda=0
L_z=2xy^2z+\lambda=0
L_\lambda=x+y+z-5=0

\lambda=-y^2z^2=-2xyz^2=-2xy^2z

-y^2z^2=-2xyz^2\implies y=2x (if y,z\neq0)

-y^2z^2=-2xy^2z\implies z=2x (if y,z\neq0)

-2xyz^2=-2xy^2z\implies z=y (if x,y,z\neq0)

In the first octant, we assume x,y,z>0, so we can ignore the caveats above. Now,

x+y+z=5\iff x+2x+2x=5x=5\implies x=1\implies y=z=2

so that the only critical point in the region of interest is (1, 2, 2), for which we get a maximum value of f(1,2,2)=16.

We also need to check the boundary of the region, i.e. the intersection of x+y+z=5 with the three coordinate axes. But in each case, we would end up setting at least one of the variables to 0, which would force f(x,y,z)=0, so the point we found is the only extremum.

Estimate the quotient of 21.49 ÷ 3.76 using compatible numbers.
kvv77 [185]

The quotient of 21.49 ÷ 3.76 using compatible numbers is approximately 5.69

<h3>What are quotients?</h3>

Quotients are result derived from the ratio of two rational or integers. Given the expression

21.49 ÷ 3.76

Convert to fraction

21.49 ÷ 3.76 = 2140/100  ÷  376/100
21.49 ÷ 3.76 = 2140/376

21.49 ÷ 3.76 =  5.69

Hence the quotient of 21.49 ÷ 3.76 using compatible numbers is approximately 5.69
