<span>Constraints (in slope-intercept form)
x≥0,
y≥0,
y≤1/3x+3,
y</span>≤ 5 - x
The vertices are the points of intersection between the constraints, or the outer bounds of the area that agrees with the constraints.
We know that x≥0 and y≥0, so there is one vertex at (0,0)
We find the other vertex on the y-axis, plug in 0 for x in the function:
y <span>≤ 1/3x+3
y </span><span>≤1/3(0)+3
y = 3.
There is another vertex at (0,3)
Find where the 2 inequalities intersect by setting them equal to each other
(1/3x+3) = 5-x Simplify Simplify Simplify
x = 3/2
Plugging in 3/2 into y = 5-x: 10/2 - 3/2 = 7/2
y=7/2
There is another vertex at (3/2, 7/2)
There is a final vertex where the line y=5-x crosses the x axis:
0 = 5 -x , x = 5
The final vertex is at point (5, 0)
Therefore, the vertices are:
(0,0), (0,3), (3/2, 7/2), (5, 0)
We want to maximize C = 6x - 4y.
Of all the vertices, we want the one with the largest x and smallest y. We might have to plug in a few to see which gives the greatest C value, but in this case, it's not necessary.
The point (5,0) has the largest x value of all vertices and lowest y value.
Maximum of the function:
C = 6(5) - 4(0)
C = 30</span>
Answer:
t ≈ -2.014 or 3.647
Step-by-step explanation:
Add the opposite of the expression on the right side of the equal sign to put the equation into standard form.
4.9t² -8t -36 = 0
You can divide by 4.9 to make this a little easier to solve.
t² -(8/4.9)t -36/4.9 = 0
Now, add and subtract the square of half the x-coefficient to "complete the square."
t² -(8/4.9)t +(4/4.9)² -36/4.9 -(4/4.9)² = 0
(t -4/4.9)² -192.4/4.9² = 0 . . . . simplify
Add the constant term, then take the square root.
(t -4/4.9)² = 192.4/4.9²
t -4/4.9 = ±(√192.4)/4.9
t = (4 ± √192.4)/4.9
t ≈ {-2.014, 3.647}
Answer:
f(5) = 17
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = 3x + 2
f(5) = 3(5) + 2
f(5) = 15 + 2 = 17
