In each box is a step in the process of solving a max/min problem like the one in Question 8. Number these steps in order (1-8)
Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

The steps are numbered below

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve a maximum/minimum problem, the steps are as follows.

1. Make a drawing.

2. Assign variables to quantities that change.

3. Identify and write down a formula for the quantity that is being optimized.

4. Identify the endpoints, that is, the domain of the function being optimized.

5. Identify the constraint equation.

6. Use the constraint equation to write a new formula for the quantity being optimized that is a function of one variable.

7. Find the derivative and then the critical points of the function being optimized.

8. Evaluate the y-values of the critical points and endpoints by plugging them into the function being optimized. The largest y- value is the global maximum, and the smallest y-value is the global minimum.

Solve the equation x. 3 = x/3 + 4
Gennadij [26K]

Answer:

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

3 = x/ 3 + 4

This is same as

3/1 = x/ 3 + 4

Then cross multiply

1(x + 4) = 3× 3

x + 4 = 9

x = 9 - 4

x = 5

Rewrite the function in intercept form y=x^2+8x+15
gavmur [86]
<span>To do that, you need to set it all to zero and factor: x^2+8x+15 = 0 (x+5)(x+3) = 0 then put both those in parentheses chunks in their own equations x + 5 = 0 x + 3 = 0 and then simplify x = -5 x = -3 So the two points where the parabola crosses the x-axis are -5 and -3.</span>
