~PLEASE HELP!~

Mathematics
1 answer:
Gwar [14]3 years ago

I'm not sure, but what I got was -8.5, since it is only stating that it is -17 and 5, and you need to figure out Point B, when it is between A and 0. So, you don't pay attention to 1-5. You only want -17 through 0. -17 divided by two would be -8.5

Use lagrange multipliers to find the shortest distance, d, from the point (4, 0, −5 to the plane x y z = 1
Varvara68 [4.7K]
I assume there are some plus signs that aren't rendering for some reason, so that the plane should be x+y+z=1.

You're minimizing d(x,y,z)=\sqrt{(x-4)^2+y^2+(z+5)^2} subject to the constraint f(x,y,z)=x+y+z=1. Note that d(x,y,z) and d(x,y,z)^2 attain their extrema at the same values of x,y,z, so we'll be working with the squared distance to avoid working out some slightly more complicated partial derivatives later.

The Lagrangian is

L(x,y,z,\lambda)=(x-4)^2+y^2+(z+5)^2+\lambda(x+y+z-1)

Take your partial derivatives and set them equal to 0:

\begin{cases}\dfrac{\partial L}{\partial x}=2(x-4)+\lambda=0\\\\\dfrac{\partial L}{\partial y}=2y+\lambda=0\\\\\dfrac{\partial L}{\partial z}=2(z+5)+\lambda=0\\\\\dfrac{\partial L}{\partial\lambda}=x+y+z-1=0\end{cases}\implies\begin{cases}2x+\lambda=8\\2y+\lambda=0\\2z+\lambda=-10\\x+y+z=1\end{cases}

Adding the first three equations together yields

2x+2y+2z+3\lambda=2(x+y+z)+3\lambda=2+3\lambda=-2\implies \lambda=-\dfrac43

and plugging this into the first three equations, you find a critical point at (x,y,z)=\left(\dfrac{14}3,\dfrac23,-\dfrac{13}3\right).

The squared distance is then d\left(\dfrac{14}3,\dfrac23,-\dfrac{13}3\right)^2=\dfrac43, which means the shortest distance must be \sqrt{\dfrac43}=\dfrac2{\sqrt3}.

A trimaran boat, with a top speed of 55 knots, won the tournament cup in 2010. Its top speed is 6 knots more than 3.5 times the
slavikrds [6]

Answer:

14 knots

Step-by-step explanation:

We know the speed (55 knots) is 6 more than 3.5 times the winner of the monohull in the 2007 tournament.

So let's set the variable for the speed of the monohull to <em>m</em>. Now, let's set up an equation:

55 = 6 + (3.5 * m)

We can solve this by first subtracting 6 from both sides to get:

49 = 3.5 * m

Dividing both sides by 3.5 we get:

14 = m

That means that the top speed of the monohull in the 2007 tournament was 14 knots
