Logan and Claudia want to split a bag of fun-sized candy, and decide to use the divider-chooser method. The bag contains 100 Sni

ckers, 100 Milky Ways, and 100 Reese's, which Logan values at $4, $1, and $2 respectively. (This means Logan values the 100 Snickers together at $4, or $0.04 for 1 Snickers)
If Claudia is the divider, and in one half puts: 35 Snickers 30 Milky Ways 55 Reese's What is the value of this half in Logan's eyes?

Use lagrange multipliers to find the point on the plane x â 2y + 3z = 6 that is closest to the point (0, 2, 4).
Arisa [49]
The distance between a point (x,y,z) on the given plane and the point (0, 2, 4) is

\sqrt{f(x,y,z)}=\sqrt{x^2+(y-2)^2+(z-4)^2}

but since \sqrt{f(x,y,z)} and f(x,y,z) share critical points, we can instead consider the problem of optimizing f(x,y,z) subject to x-2y+3z=6.

The Lagrangian is

L(x,y,z,\lambda)=x^2+(y-2)^2+(z-4)^2+\lambda(x-2y+3z-6)

with partial derivatives (set equal to 0)

L_x=2x+\lambda=0\implies x=-\dfrac\lambda2
L_y=2(y-2)-2\lambda=0\implies y=2+\lambda
L_z=2(z-4)+3\lambda=0\implies z=4-\dfrac{3\lambda}2
L_\lambda=x-2y+3z-6=0\implies x-2y+3z=6

Solve for \lambda:

x-2y+3z=-\dfrac\lambda2-2(2+\lambda)+3\left(4-\dfrac{3\lambda}2\right)=6
\implies2=7\lambda\implies\lambda=\dfrac27

which gives the critical point

x=-\dfrac17,y=\dfrac{16}7,z=\dfrac{25}7

We can confirm that this is a minimum by checking the Hessian matrix of f(x,y,z):

\mathbf H(x,y,z)=\begin{bmatrix}f_{xx}&f_{xy}&f_{xz}\\f_{yx}&f_{yy}&f_{yz}\\f_{zx}&f_{zy}&f_{zz}\end{bmatrix}=\begin{bmatrix}2&0&0\\0&2&0\\0&0&2\end{bmatrix}

\mathbf H is positive definite (we see its determinant and the determinants of its leading principal minors are positive), which indicates that there is a minimum at this critical point.

At this point, we get a distance from (0, 2, 4) of

\sqrt{f\left(-\dfrac17,\dfrac{16}7,\dfrac{25}7\right)}=\sqrt{\dfrac27}

A researcher is interested in the effect of alcohol consumption on reaction times. Participants are assigned to one of three pos
IRINA_888 [86]

Answer:

The three different possible conditions ;

nonalcoholic beer group, 1 beer group, 2 beer group

Step-by-step explanation:

The Independent variable, also known as the predictor variable are variables used to influence and check changes in the dependent or predicted variable as subjects are exposed to the different types or levels of independent variable used in the study.

In the scenario described above, the predictor or independent variables which are used to measure the reaction times of participants to unexpected variables is the independent variable, beacuse these different variables ; nonalcoholic beer, 2 beer will probably affect the response time of the participants which is the dependent variable.

Which equations have a leading coefficient of 3 and a constant term of –2? Check all that apply.
Svetllana [295]
Answers are: choice A, choice C, choice E

Explanation: The leading coefficient is the number that is to the left of the term with the largest exponent, which in this case is 2. The term 3x^2 is the leading term with the coefficient of 3. This is why the leading coefficient is 3 for choice A, choice C, and choice E. Choice B has a leading coefficient of -3 so we can rule that out. Choice D has a leading coefficient of 3, but the constant term is NOT -2. Instead the constant term is +2, so we can rule out choice D as well. The other choices that haven't been eliminated all have 3x^2 somewhere in them, as well as the constant term -2. The other x term isn't relevant to the restrictions placed in the instructions.
