Using the digits 1 to 9 at most one time each, fill in the boxes to find the largest (or smallest) possible values for x.
Mice21 [21]

Answer:

smallest: 8x -3 = 4; 1y +9 = 2. total = -49/8

 largest: 1x -9 = 8; 2y +3 = 7. total = 19

Step-by-step explanation:

If we use variables to represent the box contents, we can write ...

ax -b = c

dy +e = f

Then the values of x and y are ...

 x = (c +b)/a

 y = (f -e)/d

For positive integer values of the variables, x will always be positive, and y may or may not be negative.

Smallest sum

For the sum to be the smallest, we must have x be as small as possible and the ratio (f-e)/d be as negative as possible.

x will be small for large 'a' and for (c+b) small. For y to be as negative as possible, we want 'd' and 'f' small and 'e' large. Best results are obtained for

8x -3 = 4   ⇒   x = 7/8

1y +9 = 2   ⇒   y = -7

For these coefficients, the sum is -6 1/8 = -49/8.

(note that the values of 'b' and 'c' can be swapped with no net effect)

Largest sum

For the sum to be the largest, we must have x as large as possible: (b+c) large and 'a' small. At the same time we must have y be positive and as large as possible: (f-e) positive and large, 'd' small. Best results are obtained for

1x -9 = 8  ⇒   x = 17

2y +3 = 7   ⇒   y = 2

For these coefficients, the sum is 19. Again, 'b' and 'c' can be swapped with no effect.

_____

Additional comment

These extreme values are verified by examination of the 60,480 possible permutations of the coefficients.

Branson and his sister Beatrice combined their allowance of $7 each, so they could buy a movie for $12. They bought $1 container
Andreyy89

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Branson and his sister Beatrice combined their allowance of $7 each. This means that the total amount they had is 7 + 7 = $14

They bought a movie for $12. The amount that they have left is

14 - 12 = $2

They bought $1 containers of fruit salad with the remaining money and split the containers evenly between them. This means that the number of containers that they bought is

2/1 = 2

If they split the containers evenly between themselves, then each person would get

2/2 = 1 container of fruit salad
