Answer: = (the third option)
Step-by-step explanation
What is the question? If you are only trying to expand the
expression then the answer would be:
1/4 (5y-3)+ 1/16 (12y+17)
(5y/4) – (3/4) + (12y/16) + (17/16)
1.25y – 0.75 + 0.75y + 1.0625
2y + 0.3125
If you are trying to find for y, then you forgot to equate
it to 0, that is:
2y + 0.3125 = 0
2y = -0.3125
<span>y = 0.15625</span>
Answer:
Total material needed = 9.5 square feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Dimensions of I = 2. 5feet x 1 feet
Area = 2.5 square feet
Dimensions of S :
Top part = 1 feet x 1 feet
Area of top part = 1 square feet
Bottom part = 1 feet x 2.5 feet
Area of bottom part = 2.5 square feet
Total Area of S = 2.5 + 1 = 3.5 square feet
Total material needed = Area of I + Area of S + Area of S
= 2.5 + 3.5 + 3.5
= 9.5 square feet.



Stationary points occur where the derivative is zero. The denominator is positive for all

, so we only need to worry about the numerator.


for all

, so we can divide through:

But

for all

, so this function has no stationary points...
I suspect there may be a typo in the question.
