The number of salmon swimming upstream to spawn is approximated by the following function:
umka2103 [35]

Answer:

The water temperature that produces the maximum number of salmon swimming upstream is approximately 12.305 degrees Celsius.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let S(x) = -x^{3}+2\cdot x^{2}+405\cdot x +4965, for 6 \leq x \leq 20. x represents the temperature of the water, measured in degrees Celsius, and S is the number of salmon swimming upstream to spawn, dimensionless.

We compute the first and second derivatives of the function:

S'(x) = -3\cdot x^{2}+4\cdot x +405 (Eq. 1)

S''(x) = -6\cdot x +4 (Eq. 2)

Then we equalize (Eq. 1) to zero and solve for x:

-3\cdot x^{2}+4\cdot x +405 = 0

And all roots are found by Quadratic Formula:

x_{1} \approx 12.305\,^{\circ}C, x_{2}\approx -10.971\,^{\circ}C

Only the first root is inside the given interval of the function. Hence, the correct answer is:

x \approx 12.305\,^{\circ}C

Now we evaluate the second derivative at given result. That is:

S''(12.305) = -6\cdot (12.305)+4

S''(12.305) = -69.83

According to the Second Derivative Test, a negative value means that critical value leads to a maximum. In consequence, the water temperature that produces the maximum number of salmon swimming upstream is approximately 12.305 degrees Celsius.

Andrew [12]

1. Place your compass point on X and measure the distance to point Y. Swing an arc of this size above (or below) the segment.

2. Without changing the span on the compass, place the compass point on Y and swing the same arc, intersecting with the first arc.

3. Label the point of intersection as the third vertex of the equilateral triangle.

4. Use you straight edge and connect the points.

En un polinomio P(x,y), homogéneo y completo en "x" e "y", la suma de los grados absolutos de todos sus términos es 420. ¿Cuál e
Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

the degree of homogeneity is 20.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a polynomial P (x, y), homogeneous and complete in "x" and "y", the sum of the absolute degrees of all its terms is 420. What is its degree of homogeneity?

A homogeneous polynomial is one in which all monomials have the same degree.

This is an example of a homogeneous polynomial of degree 4 (the degree of all monomials is 4):

x ^ 4 + 3x ^ 3y + 2x ^ 2y ^ 2 + xy ^ 3 + 8y ^ 4.

As you can see, the sum of the exponents of the variables x, y in each monomial is 4.

And the number of terms is 5, that is, it is the degree of homogeneity plus 1.

In relation to the sum of the absolute degrees of all monomials or terms it will be: 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 = 4 * 5 = 20.

In general, you can say that the sum of the absolute degrees in a homogeneous polynomial will be the degree of each monomial by the number of terms = degree * (degree + 1)

Calling n, the degree of our polynomial, it must be fulfilled:

n (n + 1) = 420

=> n ^ 2 + n = 420

=> n ^ 2 + n - 420 = 0

Factoring:

(n + 21) (n - 20) = 0

=> n = -21 and n = 20.

Only the positive value makes sense, therefore n = 20.

In other words, the polynomial is of the form (excluding the coefficients):

x ^ 20 + x ^ 19 y + x ^ 18 y ^ 2 + x ^ 17 y ^ 3 + .... x ^ 3 y ^ 17 + x ^ 2y ^ 18 + xy ^ 19 + y ^ 20

That polynomial has 21 terms.

So the sum of the degrees will be 20 * 21 = 420, as required in the statement.

Therefore, the degree of homogeneity is 20.
