The rectangular backboard of a basketball court needs to be assembled. Its area is given as 18,900 cm2 and the width as 1.8 m.

Answer:

The length of the backboard is 105 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

You can find the length be dividing area/width. The area is 18,900 cm squared. The width is 1.8 meters or 180 cm. 18,900/180 = 105 cm. You can check by multiplying length by width, if you get the area, then the answer is correct.

Let the (x; y) coordinates represent locations on the ground. The height h of
grigory [225]

The critical points of <em>h(x,y)</em> occur wherever its partial derivatives h_x and h_y vanish simultaneously. We have

h_x = 8-4y-8x = 0 \implies y=2-2x \\\\ h_y = 10-4x-12y^2 = 0 \implies 2x+6y^2=5

Substitute <em>y</em> in the second equation and solve for <em>x</em>, then for <em>y</em> :

2x+6(2-2x)^2=5 \\\\ 24x^2-46x+19=0 \\\\ \implies x=\dfrac{23\pm\sqrt{73}}{24}\text{ and }y=\dfrac{1\mp\sqrt{73}}{12}

This is to say there are two critical points,

(x,y)=\left(\dfrac{23+\sqrt{73}}{24},\dfrac{1-\sqrt{73}}{12}\right)\text{ and }(x,y)=\left(\dfrac{23-\sqrt{73}}{24},\dfrac{1+\sqrt{73}}{12}\right)

To classify these critical points, we carry out the second partial derivative test. <em>h(x,y)</em> has Hessian

H(x,y) = \begin{bmatrix}h_{xx}&h_{xy}\\h_{yx}&h_{yy}\end{bmatrix} = \begin{bmatrix}-8&-4\\-4&-24y\end{bmatrix}

whose determinant is 192y-16. Now,

• if the Hessian determinant is negative at a given critical point, then you have a saddle point

• if both the determinant and h_{xx} are positive at the point, then it's a local minimum

• if the determinant is positive and h_{xx} is negative, then it's a local maximum

• otherwise the test fails

We have

\det\left(H\left(\dfrac{23+\sqrt{73}}{24},\dfrac{1-\sqrt{73}}{12}\right)\right) = -16\sqrt{73} < 0

while

\det\left(H\left(\dfrac{23-\sqrt{73}}{24},\dfrac{1+\sqrt{73}}{12}\right)\right) = 16\sqrt{73}>0 \\\\ \text{ and } \\\\ h_{xx}\left(\dfrac{23+\sqrt{73}}{24},\dfrac{1-\sqrt{73}}{12}\right)=-8 < 0

So, we end up with

h\left(\dfrac{23+\sqrt{73}}{24},\dfrac{1-\sqrt{73}}{12}\right)=-\dfrac{4247+37\sqrt{73}}{72} \text{ (saddle point)}\\\\\text{ and }\\\\h\left(\dfrac{23-\sqrt{73}}{24},\dfrac{1+\sqrt{73}}{12}\right)=-\dfrac{4247-37\sqrt{73}}{72} \text{ (local max)}

Please help!!!! <br><br> If f(1) = 2 and f(n+1) = f(n)^2 – 3 then find the value of f(3).
Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer:

The value of f(3) is -2.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a recursive function. So

f(1) = 2

Now, we find f(2) in function of f(1). So

f(1+1) = f(1)^2 - 3

f(2) = f(1)^2 - 3 = 2^2 - 3 = 1

Now, with f(2), we can find the value of f(3).

f(2+1) = f(2)^2 - 3

f(3) = f(2)^2 - 3 = 1^2 - 3 = -2

The value of f(3) is -2.
