aleksklad [387]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

  5

Step-by-step explanation:

The integers 5 and 5 sum to 10 and have the largest possible product.

___

The two numbers will be x and (10-x). Their product is x(10-x), which describes a downward-opening parabola with zeros at x=0 and x=10. The maximum (vertex) of that parabola is halfway between the zeros, at x=5. Both integers have the same value: 5. Their product is 25.

If there is a requirement the integers be distinct, then 6 and 4 are the integers of choice. Their product is 24.

The average attendance at school for 5 days was 264. If the attendance on the 5th day was 256, calculate the average attendance
Tema [17]

Answer:

266

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the attendence of 5days be a,b,c,d,e

given,

(a+b+c+d+e)/5=264

a+b+c+d+256=264*5 [since 5th day=256]

(a+b+c+d+)/4=1(320-256)/4 [dividing both side by 4]

average attendence of 4 days =266

the height in feet of an object projected upward is given by the polynomial -16t^2+60t+90 where t represents time, in seconds. F
Karolina [17]

<u>Given</u>:

The height of an object project upward is given by the polynomial

h=-16t^2+60t+90

where t represents the time, in seconds.

We need to determine the height after t = 2.5 seconds.

<u>Height of an object:</u>

The height of an object after 2.5 seconds can be determined by substituting t=2.5 in the polynomial, we get;

h=-16(2.5)^2+60(2.5)+90

Simplifying, we get;

h=-16(6.25)+60(2.5)+90

h=-100+150+90

h=140

Thus, the height of an object is 140 feet.
