You lost 4 but you don't loose anymore
You won 6 and you keep on winning more games.
Since you don't loose anymore games, in the ratio 2:1, you would replace the "1" with 4 and replace the 2 with 6+n.
the ratio is currently 6+n:4
Note that (6+n) has to be twice as much as 4.
The number twice as much as 4 is 8
therefore, 6+n is 8
and n = 2
You would have to win 2 more rounds.

Find positive numbers x and y satisfying the equation xyequals12 such that the sum 4xplusy is as small as possible. Let S be the
WITCHER [35]

Answer:

The objective function in terms of one​ number, x is

S(x) = 4x + (12/x)

The values of x and y that minimum the sum are √3 and 4√3 respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

Two positive numbers, x and y

x × y = 12

xy = 12

S(x,y) = 4x + y

We plan to minimize the sum subject to the constraint (xy = 12)

We can make y the subject of formula in the constraint equation

y = (12/x)

Substituting into the objective function,

S(x,y) = 4x + y

S(x) = 4x + (12/x)

We can then find the minimum.

At minimum point, (dS/dx) = 0 and (d²S/dx²) > 0

(dS/dx) = 4 - (12/x²) = 0

4 - (12/x²) = 0

(12/x²) = 4

4x² = 12

x = √3

y = 12/√3 = 4√3

To just check if this point is truly a minimum

(d²S/dx²) = (24/x³) = (8/√3) > 0 (minimum point)

how can you use the metric prefixes milli, centi, and kilo to help you decide if a metric conversion is reasonable
serious [3.7K]
I remember it as a meter in the middle a 100 cents in a dollar and a millimeter is just one one-thousandth of a meter. A kilo is 100 times a meter.

Graph the image of the figure using the transformation given. (across y=-x)
lana [24]

Answer:

The answer is B because if you take the line of y=-x (which you can look up on desmos if you don't know what y=-x looks like) and reflect over that line you can see that when the dot reflects over the line y=-x it goes to points (0,2)
