Find two numbers whose difference is 164 and whose product is a minimum. (smaller number) (larger number)

The lowest possible product would be -6724 given the numbers 82 and -82. 

We can find this by setting the first number as x + 164. The other number would have to be simply x since it has to have a 164 difference. 

Next we'll multiply the numbers together. 
x(x+164)
x^2 + 164x

Now we want to minimize this as much as possible, so we'll find the vertex of this quadratic graph. You can do this by finding the x value as -b/2a, where b is the number attached to x and a is the number attached to x^2

-b/2a = -164/2(1) = -164/2 = -82

So we know one of the values is -82. We can plug that into the equation to find the second. 

x + 164
-82 + 164 
82

A man sells 8 articles for Rs. 7360 and makes a profit of
Bogdan [553]

Answer:

SP of 8 articles =Rs 7360

Profit=15%

Now,

SP of each article =7360/8= Rs920

Wkt,

SP=CP+profit (let CP=x)

920=x+15%of CP

920=x+15÷100× x

920=x+15x÷100

920=(100x+15x)÷100

920=115x÷100

92000=115x

92000÷115=x

Therefore, x=Rs 800

CP=800(i.e Cost price of one article)

Again,

SP of 13 articles=Rs 11440

SP of 1 article=11440÷13=Rs 880

Since,SP>CP

Profit!

Profit=SP-CP

=880-800

=Rs 80

Profit%=profit÷CP×100%

=80÷800×100

=10%

Answer:

<u>The standard deviation of the uniform distribution is:</u>

  • σ=(b−a)/√12

<u>U(3, 12)</u>

  • σ = (12−3)/√12 = 9/√12 = 2.5981

<u>U(80, 250)</u>

  • σ = (250−80)/√12 = 170/√12 = 49.0748

<u>U(4, 93)</u>

  • σ = (93−4)/√12 = 89/√12 = 25.6921

Use the parabola tool to graph the quadratic function. f(x)=2x^2 +12x+16 Graph the parabola by first plotting its vertex and the
givi [52]
(-3, -2) is the vertex. 

You can find this by plugging into -b/2a to find the x value and using the x value to find the y value. 

And another spot on the vertex would be (0, 16), which is the y intercept.
