Answer:
m^2 = 35/9
Step-by-step explanation:
The line will be tangent to the ellipse where there is one point of intersection between the line and the ellipse. We can find that case by looking at the discriminant of the quadratic.
x^2 +9(mx +2)^2 = 1
x^2 +9(m^2x^2 +4mx +4) = 1
(9m^2 +1)x^2+36mx +35 = 0 . . . . subtract 1, collect terms
__
Then the discriminant is ...
(36m)^2 -4(9m^2 +1)(35)
We want it to be zero, so we have ...
1296m^2 -1260m^2 -140 = 0 . . . . eliminate parentheses
36m^2 = 140 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . add 140
m^2 = 140/36 . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 36
m^2 = 35/9
Answer:
A.
Step-by-step explanation:
each one is $1.03
so if you want 2 stamps they would be $2.06
Answer:
15 tables
Step-by-step explanation:
Chairs = $200
Tables = $600
Maximum items = 39
Minimum sales = $13,000
If 20 chairs are sold, revenue is $4,000. At least $9,000 in additional revenue is required. To earn $9,000, a minimum of 15 tables would need to be sold, which is fine since a maximum of 19 tables is permitted to be sold.
