We will check if y and 60cm are parallel.

If the lengths 28cm, 56cm and 15cm, 30cm are in proportion, then y and the segment 60cm are parallel.

$\dfrac{56}{28}=\dfrac{30}{15}\\\\2=2\qquad CORRECT!$

OK. We know: y and 60cm are parallel. Therefore we have equation:

$\dfrac{y}{28+56}=\dfrac{60}{56}\\\\\dfrac{y}{84}=\dfrac{15}{14}\qquad|\text{cross multiply}\\\\14y=15\cdot84\qquad|\text{divide both sides by 14}\\\\y=90cm$

<h3>Answer: y = 90 cm.</h3>

Find the absolute maximum and absolute minimum values of the function f(x, y) = x 2 + y 2 − x 2 y + 7 on the set d = {(x, y) : |

dsp73

Looks like $f(x,y)=x^2+y^2-x^2y+7$ .

$f_x=2x-2xy=0\implies2x(1-y)=0\implies x=0\text{ or }y=1$

$f_y=2y-x^2=0\implies2y=x^2$

If $x=0$ , then $y=0$ - critical point at (0, 0).
If $y=1$ , then $x=\pm\sqrt2$ - two critical points at $(-\sqrt2,1)$ and $(\sqrt2,1)$

The latter two critical points occur outside of $D$ since $|\pm\sqrt2|>1$ so we ignore those points.

The Hessian matrix for this function is

$H(x,y)=\begin{bmatrix}f_{xx}&f_{xy}\\f_{yx}&f_{yy}\end{bmatrix}=\begin{bmatrix}2-2y&-2x\\-2x&2\end{bmatrix}$

The value of its determinant at (0, 0) is $\det H(0,0)=4>0$ , which means a minimum occurs at the point, and we have $f(0,0)=7$ .

Now consider each boundary:

If $x=1$ , then

$f(1,y)=8-y+y^2=\left(y-\dfrac12\right)^2+\dfrac{31}4$

which has 3 extreme values over the interval $-1\le y\le1$ of 31/4 = 7.75 at the point (1, 1/2); 8 at (1, 1); and 10 at (1, -1).

If $x=-1$ , then

$f(-1,y)=8-y+y^2$

and we get the same extrema as in the previous case: 8 at (-1, 1), and 10 at (-1, -1).

If $y=1$ , then

$f(x,1)=8$

which doesn't tell us about anything we don't already know (namely that 8 is an extreme value).

If $y=-1$ , then

$f(x,-1)=2x^2+8$

which has 3 extreme values, but the previous cases already include them.

Hence $f(x,y)$ has absolute maxima of 10 at the points (1, -1) and (-1, -1) and an absolute minimum of 0 at (0, 0).

Consider the sequence 3, -9, 27, -81, .. Find the 14th term of the sequence.

bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

let 'a' be the first term, 'd' be the common difference between all the terms of the sequence

Step-by-step explanation:

therefore, a = 3,

and, d = -9 -3

= -12

hence the 14th term would be,

=> a + 13d

=> 3 + 13( -12 )

=> 3 - 156

=> - 153
