Answer: y = 4x + 80

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>It's important to write down what you know.</u>

For example, I'd write that she grows 4 cm every 2 months. I'd also write that she's already 80 cm.

We also know that X is the months and Y is the centimeters, so therefore...

Let x = number of months

Let y = length in centimeters

"Let" statements are important to keep your information organized.

Now, put all the information together.

We know the number of months and "4" need together, as they correlate. This gives us 4x. We also know she's ALREADY 80, which would go along with the amount she's grown. This gives us 4x+80. We know "y" represents the total, which is y=4x+80.

Which of the pairs of angles are vertical angles and thus congruent? ∠A and ∠G ∠A and ∠B ∠C and ∠F ∠D and ∠H
r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

∠A and ∠G is the pair of vertical angles.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the figure attached,

Two lines 'm' and 'n' are two parallel lines. These lines intersect a horizontal line 'l'.

Since, "Pair of opposite angles formed at the point of intersection are the vertical angles and equal in measure."

Therefore, Opposite angles ∠A ≅ ∠G, ∠B ≅ ∠H, ∠C ≅ ∠E and ∠D ∠F are the vertical angles.

From the given options,

∠A and ∠G is the pair representing the pair of vertical angles and thus congruent.

A company manufactures running shoes and basketball shoes. The total revenue (in thousands of dollars) from x1 units of running
Alborosie

Answer:

x_1 =2 , x_2=7

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the revenue function given by R(x_1,x_2) = -5x_1^2-8x_2^2 -2x_1x_2+34x_1+116x_2. We want to find the values of each of the variables such that the gradient( i.e the first partial derivatives of the function) is 0. Then, we have the following (the explicit calculations of both derivatives are omitted).

\frac{dR}{dx_1} = -10x_1-2x_2+34 =0

\frac{dR}{dx_2} = -16x_2-2x_1+116 =0

From the first equation, we get, x_2 = \frac{-10x_1+34}{2}.If we replace that in the second equation, we get

-16\frac{-10x_1+34}{2} -2x_1+116=0= 80x_1-2x_1+116-272= 78x_1-156

From where we get that x_1 = \frac{156}{78}=2. If we replace that in the first equation, we get

x_2 = \frac{-10\cdot 2 +34}{2}=\frac{14}{2} = 7

So, the critical point is (x_1,x_2) = (2,7). We must check that it is a maximum. To do so, we will use the Hessian criteria. To do so, we must calculate the second derivatives and the crossed derivatives  and check if the criteria is fulfilled in order for it to be a maximum. We get that

\frac{d^2R}{dx_1dx_2}= -2 = \frac{d^2R}{dx_2dx_1}

\frac{d^2R}{dx_{1}^2}=-10, \frac{d^2R}{dx_{2}^2}=-16

We have the following matrix,  

\left[\begin{matrix} -10 & -2 \\ -2 & -16\end{matrix}\right].

Recall that the Hessian criteria says that, for the point to be a maximum, the determinant of the whole matrix should be positive and the element of the matrix that is in the upper left corner should be negative. Note that the determinant of the matrix is (-10)\cdot (-16) - (-2)(-2) = 156>0 and that -10<0. Hence, the criteria is fulfilled and the critical point is a maximum

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>Step(i)</em></u>:-

Given series  1 -0.5 -2 +.........

we know that the sum of the sequence is called a series

The sequence is 1, -0.5, -2, -3.5,.....is in AP

a = 1 and the difference between the two terms is equal 'd' = -1.5

<u><em>Step(ii):-</em></u>

<u><em>adding 1.5 value of each term</em></u>
