The manager of a newsagency conducted a survey to find out the most popular newspaper. He found that the sales ratio of the ‘Dai

ly News' paper to ‘Wacky News' paper was 2 : 5 and the ratio of ‘Wacky News' to ‘Truthful News' sold was 4:1. (a) If 25 ‘Truthful News' papers were sold on Friday, how many of ‘Wacky News' were sold? ______________________________________________________________________ (b) Using your answer to (a) find how many ‘Daily News' papers were sold on the same day? ______________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________

Answer:

  (a) 100 Wacky News

  (b) 40 Daily News

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiplying the first ratio numbers by 4, we get ...

  daily : wacky = 8 : 20

and multiplying the second ratio numbers by 5, we get ...

  wacky : truthful = 20 : 5

Then we can combine these ratios to ...

  daily : wacky : truthful = 8 : 20 : 5

Multiplying this set of ratio numbers by 5 again, we get ...

  daily : wacky : truthful = 40 : 100 : 25

This makes the Truthful News ratio value match the actual number in part (a).

__

(a) If 25 Truthful News papers were sold on Friday, then 100 Wacky News papers were sold.

__

(b) The same day, 40 Daily News papers were sold.

Answer:X=5/6 Y=8/5

Step-by-step explanation:

-6x +5y=3

+6x

5y=6x+3 (divide each number by 5)

Y=6/5x + 3/5 (Plug that into your x equation)

12x+15 (6/5x + 3/5) =34

(Multiply 15 by the numbers in the brackets you can break it down and do 15•6 divided by 5 )

15•6=90 divided by 5=18x

15•3= 45 divided by 5=9

(Add like variables)

12x+18x=30x

30x+9=34

(Subtract 9 from itself do the same to 34)

9-9= 0

34-9=25

Divide 30 by itself to get x by itself then divide 25 by 30

25 divided by 30= 5/6

X=5/6 (plug that into the y equation)

Y=6/5•5/6+3/5

Multiply 6/5 and 5/6 straight across because this is multiplication you don't need like denominators

6/5•5/6=30/30=1

Y=1+3/5

1/1 + 3/5

Here you need to have like denominators because it is addition so just use 5

5•1=5

5/5+3/5=8/5

Y=8/5

Each of these extreme value problems has a solution with both a maximum value and a minimum value. Use Lagrange multipliers to f
tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:

The minimum value of the given function is f(0) = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Explanation:-

Extreme value :-  f(a, b) is said to be an extreme value of given function 'f' , if it is a maximum or minimum value.

i) the necessary and sufficient condition for f(x)  to have a maximum or minimum at given point.

ii)  find first derivative f^{l} (x) and equating zero

iii) solve and find 'x' values

iv) Find second derivative f^{ll}(x) >0 then find the minimum value at x=a

v) Find second derivative f^{ll}(x) then find the maximum value at x=a

Problem:-

Given function is f(x) = log ( x^2 +1)

<u>step1:</u>- find first derivative f^{l} (x) and equating zero

  f^{l}(x) = \frac{1}{x^2+1} \frac{d}{dx}(x^2+1)

f^{l}(x) = \frac{1}{x^2+1} (2x)  ……………(1)

f^{l}(x) = \frac{1}{x^2+1} (2x)=0

the point is x=0

<u>step2:-</u>

Again differentiating with respective to 'x', we get

f^{ll}(x)=\frac{x^2+1(2)-2x(2x)}{(x^2+1)^2}

on simplification , we get

f^{ll}(x) = \frac{-2x^2+2}{(x^2+1)^2}

put x= 0 we get f^{ll}(0) = \frac{2}{(1)^2}   > 0

f^{ll}(x) >0 then find the minimum value at x=0

<u>Final answer</u>:-

The minimum value of the given function is f(0) = 0
