Answer:
This may not be entirely satisfied proof but you should get the idea.
Proof: Start with 1 = -1.
Then we know that if a= b then a + c = b + c and also a / c = b / c.
So we can add 1 to both sides.
We have 1 + 1 = -1 + 1 ⇒ 2 = 0.
Now divide both sides by 2 and we would have 1 = 0.
Now add both sides by 1. This yields 2 = 1.
Therefore if 1 = -1 then 2 = 1.
QED
Answer:
You will end up at (-5, -4)
Step-by-step explanation:
you find where (1, -4) is on the graph than from that point move left 6 units.
Answer:
4/6 is the greater of the two.
Step-by-step explanation:
4/6 = 200/300
5/100 = 15/300
200/300 is visibly clear to be larger than 15/300.
Answer:
(x, y) = (1/2, -1)
Step-by-step explanation:
Subtracting twice the first equation from the second gives ...
(2/x +1/y) -2(1/x -5/y) = (3) -2(7)
11/y = -11 . . . . simplify
y = -1 . . . . . . . multiply by y/-11
Using the second equation, we can find x:
2/x +1/-1 = 3
2/x = 4 . . . . . . . add 1
x = 1/2 . . . . . . . multiply by x/4
The solution is (x, y) = (1/2, -1).

<em>Additional comment</em>
If you clear fractions by multiplying each equation by xy, the problem becomes one of solving simultaneous 2nd-degree equations. It is much easier to consider this a system of linear equations, where the variable is 1/x or 1/y. Solving for the values of those gives you the values of x and y.
A graph of the original equations gives you an extraneous solution of (x, y) = (0, 0) along with the real solution (x, y) = (0.5, -1).
Answer:
13058.83 cubic inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that a rectangular box is having dimensions as 41x81 inches.
Let x be the side of square cut from all the four corners.
The open box made would have height as x and length 41-2x with width 81-2x
Volume =

Equate first derivative to 0
We get applicable root as x = 8.642
Max volume = 13058.83 cubic inches
