What is the minimum value of the objective function C = 4x + 9y?

Elodia [21]

Answer:-24

explain how you know:

Since xy = 4, we have y=4/x. Substituting in (1) we get f(x) = 4x+(36/x) …….(2)

Differentiating we get f ' (x) = 4 - (36/x^2)…..(2)

For maxima or minima, f ‘ (x) = 0

=> 4 - (36/x^2) =0 => (4x^2 - 36)/x^2 = 0 which gives x= +/- 3

Differentiating (2), f ‘’ (x) = 72/x^3

When x= +3 , f ‘’ (x) is clearly +ve. Therefore f(x) at (2) gives minima and the minimum value is 24.

When x= -3, f ‘’ (x) is -ve. Therefore, f(x) has maxima at x= -3. The maximum value is -24.

Note: You may be surprised to observe that the minima is more than the maxima. This is due to the fact that the function is discontinuous at x= 0, the graph of f(x) comprising of two branches, one in the first quadrant giving the minima (= +24) and another in the third quadrant that gives maxima (= -24)

Find the measure of <C in the following figure:

Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

angle C =160 degree

Step-by-step explanation:

since the given triangle is an isosceles triangle their base angles must be equal. So,

x - 10 =x/2

2(x - 10) =x

2x - 20 = x

2x - x = 20

x = 20

for angle B

x - 10

20 - 10

10 degree

for angle A

x/2

20/2

For angle c

angle A + angle B + angle C =180 degree (sum of interior angle of a triangle)

10 + 10 + angle C =180

20 + angle C =180

angle C =180 - 20

angle C =160 degree

the number of kilometers a car can drive varies directly with the liters of fuel in the car. this car can travel 476 kilometers

notka56 [123]

For this case we have that the relationship is direct.

Therefore, we have:

$y = k * x$

Where,

y: distance traveled in kilometers

x: number of liters of fuel

k: proportionality constant

We must look for the value of k. For this, we use the following data:

This car can travel 476 kilometers on 17 liters of fuel.

Substituting values we have:

$476 = k * 17$

From here, we clear the value of k:

$k = \frac{476}{17}\\k = 28$

Therefore, the relationship is:

$y = 28x$

For 1428 kilometers we have:

$1428 = 28x$

Clearing the amount of fuel we have:

$x = \frac{1428}{28}\\x = 51$

Answer:

51 liters of fuel are required for the vehicle to travel 1,428 kilometers

The percentage of people under the age of 18 was 23.5% in New York City, 25.8% in Chicago, and 26% in Los Angeles.

Hatshy [7]

Answer:

0.0158 = 1.58% probability that all of them are under 18.

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability of independent events:

If three events, A, B and C are independent, the probability of all happening is the multiplication of the probabilities of each happening, that is:

$P(A \cap B \cap C) = P(A)P(B)P(C)$

The percentage of people under the age of 18 was 23.5% in New York City, 25.8% in Chicago, and 26% in Los Angeles.

This means that $P(A) = 0.235, P(B) = 0.258, P(C) = 0.26$

If one person is selected from each city, what is the probability that all of them are under 18?

Since the three people are independent:

$P(A \cap B \cap C) = 0.235*0.258*0.26 = 0.0158$

0.0158 = 1.58% probability that all of them are under 18.
