The direct variation equation is y = kx.

In this case, the equation is y = 1.8x.
Substitute the given points into the equation. If the x and y coordinate of a point satisfies the equation and both sides are equal, then that point is your answer.

Answer:

The answer is C. (4, 7.2)

Step-by-step explanation:

y=kx

y=1.8x

so plug in your x options to see which works

y=1.8(4)

y=7.2

so your answer is C

Harrison has 30 cds in his music collection. If 40% of the cds are country and 30% are pop, how many are other types of music

Pavel [41]

Well you have to find out how many cd is 40% and 30%
30% = 30x.3=9
40% = 30x.4=16
now add 16 and 9
16+9=25 now subtract 25 from 30 and see that you have 5 cd of a different type of music to find that as a % divide 5 by 35 to get .14 I rounded it to the nearest hundreth now move the decimal over 2 spots to get 14%

a car needw fixing and abe can fix it for $70 per hour with a $130 part, but gabe can fix it for $80 an hour with a $40 part. ho

Zolol [24]

70 + 130 = 200
This would be Abe’s one hour of work and the part
80 + 80 + 40 = 200
This would be Gabe’s two hours of work and the part

Find all points on the portion of the plane x+y+z=5 in the first octant at which f(x, y, z) = xy2z2 has a maximum value.

irina1246 [14]

Lagrange multipliers:

$L(x,y,z,\lambda)=xy^2z^2+\lambda(x+y+z-5)$

$L_x=y^2z^2+\lambda=0$
$L_y=2xyz^2+\lambda=0$
$L_z=2xy^2z+\lambda=0$
$L_\lambda=x+y+z-5=0$

$\lambda=-y^2z^2=-2xyz^2=-2xy^2z$

$-y^2z^2=-2xyz^2\implies y=2x$ (if $y,z\neq0$ )

$-y^2z^2=-2xy^2z\implies z=2x$ (if $y,z\neq0$ )

$-2xyz^2=-2xy^2z\implies z=y$ (if $x,y,z\neq0$ )

In the first octant, we assume $x,y,z>0$ , so we can ignore the caveats above. Now,

$x+y+z=5\iff x+2x+2x=5x=5\implies x=1\implies y=z=2$

so that the only critical point in the region of interest is (1, 2, 2), for which we get a maximum value of $f(1,2,2)=16$ .

We also need to check the boundary of the region, i.e. the intersection of $x+y+z=5$ with the three coordinate axes. But in each case, we would end up setting at least one of the variables to 0, which would force $f(x,y,z)=0$ , so the point we found is the only extremum.
