3 0

Answer:

(9, 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

Maximum or minimum value occurs at the Corner. The points given are (0, 8), (5, 4) and (9, 0).

Substitute (0, 8) in the objective function.

We get P = 3(0) + 2(8) = 16

Now for (x , y) = (5, 4)

P = 3(5) + 2(4) = 15 + 8 = 23

At (9, 0) we get P = 3(9) + 2(0) = 27.

Clearly, we have the maximum value at (9, 0).

And the maximum value is 27.

On top of a hill, a rocket is launched from a distance 80 feet above a lake. The rocket will fall into the lake after its engine

Free_Kalibri [48]

The maximum height is 144 feet.

The maximum height is the y-coordinate of the vertex. To find the vertex, we first use x = -b/2a. For our information, that is x=-64/2(-16) = -64/-32 = 2.

Now we substitute this into the equation:
y = -16(2²) + 64(2) + 80 = -64 + 128 + 80 = 144

Marvin counts six $5 bills. write each value that he counts. what pattern do you see in the one digits of the values he counts?

spin [16.1K]

Answer: If the number of bills counted is odd, the ones digit is 5; if the number of bills is even, the ones digit is 0.

Explanation

1) Simulate the counting of the bills:

number of bills counted          value            ones digit

1                                             5                         5

2                                             5 + 5 = 10       0

3                                             10 + 5 = 15         5

4                                             15 + 5 = 20         0

5                                              20 + 5 = 25        5

6                                              25 + 5 = 30        0

2) Pattern: you can see that the ones digit alreternate: 5, 0, 5, 0, 5, 0, ...

If the number of bills counted is odd the ones digit is 5, if the number of bills is even the ones digit is 0.
