Answer:

a = -8

Step-by-step explanation:

-5⁄2 a + 5 = 25

Subtract 5 from each side

-5⁄2 a + 5-5 = 25-5

-5/2 a = 20

Multiply each side by -2/5 to isolate a

-2/5 * -5/2 a = -2/5 *20

a = -8

Step-by-step explanation:

The absolute value (or modulus) | x | of a real number x is the non-negative value of x without regard to its sign. For example, the absolute value of 5 is 5, and the absolute value of −5 is also 5. The absolute value of a number may be thought of as its distance from zero along real number line.

Let x and y be two positive numbers whose sum is 175 and (x+3)(y+4) is a maximum
Vaselesa [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x+y = 175

y = 175 - x

f(x) = (x+3)(y+4)

= x(175-x) + 3(175-x) + 4x + 12

= 175x - x² + 525 - 3x + 4x + 12

= -x² +176x + 537

f'(x) = -2x + 176

maximum when x = 88

y = 175-x = 87
