P = f*s
f +3s = 60

p = (60 -3s)*s = 3(20 -s)*s

This equation describes a parabola that opens downward. The roots of the equation are s=0 and s=20, so the axis of symmetry is s=(0+20)/2 = 10. That is, the vertex (maximum) will be found at s=10.

The second number is 10. The first number is 60-3*10 = 30.

The product is maximized when the first number is 30 and the second is 10.

CAN SOMEONE PLS HELP MEEEEEEE

Answer:

  1. 6x +y = -6
  2. 6x -y = 8
  3. 5x +y = 13

Step-by-step explanation:

To rewrite these equations from point-slope form to standard form, you can do the following:

  • eliminate parentheses
  • subtract the x-term
  • subtract the constant on the left
  • if the coefficient of x is negative, multiply by -1

Of course, any operation you do must be done <em>to both sides of the equation</em>.

__

1. y -6 = -6(x +2)

  y -6 = -6x -12 . . . . . eliminate parentheses

  6x +y -6 = -12 . . . . . add 6x

  6x +y = -6 . . . . . . . . add 6

__

2. y +2 = 6(x -1)

  y +2 = 6x -6

  -6x +y +2 = -6

  -6x +y = -8

  6x -y = 8 . . . . . . . . multiply by -1

__

3. y -3 = -5(x -2)

  y -3 = -5x +10

  5x +y -3 = 10

  5x +y = 13

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

The "standard form" of a linear equation is ax+by=c for integers a, b, c. The leading coefficient (generally, 'a') should be positive, and all coefficients should be mutually prime (have no common factors). That is why we multiply by -1 in problem 2.

P(A)=0.4 and P(B)=0.6. What is the probability of observing event B three times in a row?
Daniel [21]

Answer:

0.216

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability is the ratio of the number of possible outcome to the number of total outcome.

The probability that an event will happen added to the probability that the event will not happen gives 1. In other words, the outcome of a probability cannot exceed 1.

The probability that an event a will happen or that another independent event  b will happen is the sum of the probability that a will happen to the probability that b will happen.

The probability that the event B will occur 3 times in a row may be interpreted as BBB and in probability, "and" is interpreted as multiplication while "or" is addition.

Pr(BBB)

= 0.6 * 0.6 * 0.6

= 0.216
