Answer:
(4,5)
Step-by-step explanation:
The "feasible region" has vertices (0,0), (7,0), (5,4), and (4,5)
P = 5x + 6y
Plug in each vertices in P and find out which give maximum value
(0,0) => P= 5(0) + 6(0) = 0
(7,0) => P= 5(7) + 6(0) = 35
(5,4) => P= 5(5) + 6(4) = 49
(4,5) => P= 5(4) + 6(5) = 50
We got maximum P=50 for vertex (4,5)
So the coordinates of the point that has the maximum value is (4,5)
x = 1 or x = -3/2
Solve for x over the real numbers:
2 x^2 + x - 3 = 0
The left hand side factors into a product with two terms:
(x - 1) (2 x + 3) = 0
Split into two equations:
x - 1 = 0 or 2 x + 3 = 0
Add 1 to both sides:
x = 1 or 2 x + 3 = 0
Subtract 3 from both sides:
x = 1 or 2 x = -3
Divide both sides by 2:
Answer: x = 1 or x = -3/2
B. Because x(x+3) is x^2+3x
<u>There are 380 ways that 1st and 2nd place can be determined in the race</u>
There are 20 possibilities for determine the 1st place
There are 19 possibilities for determine the 2nd place
Number of ways that 1st and 2nd place can be determined = 20 * 19
Number of ways that 1st and 2nd place can be determined = 380
the lines weren't really clear so sorry if its a bit messy
