If <em>x</em>² + <em>y</em>² = 1, then <em>y</em> = ±√(1 - <em>x</em>²).
Let <em>f(x)</em> = |<em>x</em>| + |±√(1 - <em>x</em>²)| = |<em>x</em>| + √(1 - <em>x</em>²).
If <em>x</em> < 0, we have |<em>x</em>| = -<em>x</em> ; otherwise, if <em>x</em> ≥ 0, then |<em>x</em>| = <em>x</em>.
• Case 1: suppose <em>x</em> < 0. Then
<em>f(x)</em> = -<em>x</em> + √(1 - <em>x</em>²)
<em>f'(x)</em> = -1 - <em>x</em>/√(1 - <em>x</em>²) = 0 → <em>x</em> = -1/√2 → <em>y</em> = ±1/√2
• Case 2: suppose <em>x</em> ≥ 0. Then
<em>f(x)</em> = <em>x</em> + √(1 - <em>x</em>²)
<em>f'(x)</em> = 1 - <em>x</em>/√(1 - <em>x</em>²) = 0 → <em>x</em> = 1/√2 → <em>y</em> = ±1/√2
In either case, |<em>x</em>| = |<em>y</em>| = 1/√2, so the maximum value of their sum is 2/√2 = √2.

Answer:
9/2
Step-by-step explanation:
3a+11=7a-13
move 7a to the other side
sign changes from +7a to -7a
3a-7a+11= 7a-7a-13( combine like terms)
3a-7a+11= -13
-4a+11= -13
move 11 to the other side
sign changes from +11 to -11
-4a+11-11= -13-11
-4a= -13-11
-4a= -24
divide both sides by -4 to get a by itself
-4a/-4= -24/-4
Answer: a= 6
