Answer: Boys = 1024

Girls = 972

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of boys = x ...... ( 1 )

Therefore the number of girls = x - 52 ..…... (2 ) ( x < 52 )

X + x - 52 = 1996

2x - 52 = 1996

2x = 1996 + 52

2x = 2048

X = 2048/2

X = 1024

Substitute for x in equation ...( 2 ) to get the number of girls

1024 - 52 = 972

Now , number of boys = 1024

And number of girls = 972

We want to find the maximum and minimum values of f(x, y) = 10x2 + 11y on the disk D: x2 + y2 < 1.

dolphi86 [110]

If you're just focusing on the boundary, it's the circle $x^2+y^2=1$ . Parameterize it by taking $x=\cos t$ and $y=\sin t$ , with $0\le t\le2\pi$ . Then $f(x,y)$ reduces to a univariate function $g(t)$ :

$f(x,y)=10x^2+11y\iff g(t)=f(\cos t,\sin t)=10\cos^2t+11\sin t$

Then you can find any extrema on the boundary by checking the critical points of $g$ .

18. Let z = a + bi represent a general complex number. As noted in the lesson, the conjugate of z, abbreviated conj(z) or conj(a

AnnyKZ [126]

Question (18):

Answer: (A) All of the following

(I am using $z^*$ in place of conj(z)

$z*z^*=(a+ib)(a-ib)=a^2-(ib)^2= a^2+b^2=\mbox{modulus(z)}^2$

$z+z^*=a+ib+a-ib=2a\\z-z^*=a+ib-a+ib=2bi$

Question (19):

Answer: (B) -7

modulus of -7 is sqrt(49)=7

the other choices are all < 7
