Answer:

slope = - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Calculate m using the slope formula

m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 1, 0) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (0, - 3) ← 2 points on the line

m = $\frac{-3-0}{0+1}$ = $\frac{-3}{1}$ = - 3

Find the absolute maximum and minimum values of f(x, y) = x+y+ p 1 − x 2 − y 2 on the quarter disc {(x, y) | x ≥ 0, y ≥ 0, x2 +

Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

absolute max: f(x,y)=1/2+p1 ; at P(1/2,1/2)

absolute min: f(x,y)=p1 ; at U(0,0), V(1,0) and W(0,1)

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the absolute max and min, we need to analyse the region inside the quarter disc and the region at the limit of the disc:

Region inside the quarter disc:

There could be Minimums and Maximums, if:

∇f(x,y)=(0,0) (gradient)

we develop:

(1-2x, 1-2y)=(0,0)

x=1/2

y=1/2

Critic point P(1/2,1/2) is inside the quarter disc.

f(P)=1/2+1/2+p1-1/4-1/4=1/2+p1

f(0,0)=p1

We see that:

f(P)>f(0,0), then P(1/2,1/2) is a maximum relative

Region at the limit of the disc:

We use the Method of Lagrange Multipliers, when we need to find a max o min from a f(x,y) subject to a constraint g(x,y); g(x,y)=K (constant). In our case the constraint are the curves of the quarter disc:

g1(x, y)=x^2+y^2=1

g2(x, y)=x=0

g3(x, y)=y=0

We can obtain the critical points (maximums and minimums) subject to the constraint by solving the system of equations:

∇f(x,y)=λ∇g(x,y) ; (gradient)

g(x,y)=K

Analyse in g2:

x=0;

1-2y=0;

y=1/2

Q(0,1/2) critical point

f(Q)=1/4+p1

We do the same reflexion as for P. Q is a maximum relative

Analyse in g3:

y=0;

1-2x=0;

x=1/2

R(1/2,0) critical point

f(R)=1/4+p1

We do the same reflexion as for P. R is a maximum relative

Analyse in g1:

(1-2x, 1-2y)=λ(2x,2y)

x^2+y^2=1

Developing:

x=1/(2λ+2)

y=1/(2λ+2)

x^2+y^2=1

So:

(1/(2λ+2))^2+(1/(2λ+2))^2=1

$\lambda_{1}=\sqrt{1/2}*-1 =-0.29$

$\lambda_{2}=-\sqrt{1/2}*-1 =-1.71$

$\lambda_{2}$ give us (x,y) values negatives, outside the region, so we do not take it in account

For $\lambda_{1}$ : S(x,y)=(0.70, 070)

and

f(S)=0.70+0.70+p1-0.70^2-0.70^2=0.42+p1

We do the same reflexion as for P. S is a maximum relative

Points limits between g1, g2 y g3

we need also to analyse the points limits between g1, g2 y g3, that means U(0,0), V(1,0), W(0,1)

f(U)=p1

f(V)=p1

f(W)=p1

We can see that this 3 points are minimums relatives.

Conclusion:

We compare all the critical points P,Q,R,S,T,U,V,W an their respective values f(x,y). We find that:

absolute max: f(x,y)=1/2+p1 ; at P(1/2,1/2)

absolute min: f(x,y)=p1 ; at U(0,0), V(1,0) and W(0,1)

How can you find the area of a triangle using the Law of Sines?

aniked [119]

Explanation:

One formula for the area of a triangle is ...

Area = (1/2)ab·sin(C)

This presumes you know the measures of two sides and the angle between them. The Law of Sines is typically used where you know all the angles and only one side measure.

You would use the law of sines to find an additional side measure, then make use of the above formula for area.

Cate wants to buy calzones and sodas for her friends she finds that when she buys two calzones and three sodas she pays $13 when

IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

The prices for a calzone and for soda as an ordered pair (c,s) is (5,1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let c be the prize of calazone

Let s be the prize of soda

She buys two calzones and three sodas she pays $13

So, 2c+3s=13

She buys three calzones and two sodas she pays $17

So, 3c+2s=17

Plot the equations on graph

2c+3s=13 --- Green

3c+2s=17 --- Blue

Intersection point will give the intersection point

So,(c,s)=(5,1)

So, Option c is correct

The prices for a calzone and for soda as an ordered pair (c,s) is (5,1)

Question 2: show working out

kherson [118]

Answer in fraction form is exactly 2/27
Answer in decimal form is approximately 0.07407

========================================================

Explanation:

4 people play both,9 play flat flute only, 12 play piano only.
So 4+9+12 = 13+12 = 25 people play one instrument only or they play both.

We have 27 people total meaning that 27-25 = 2 play neither instrument.

Divide the values 2 and 27 to get
2/27 = 0.07407
this value is approximate (rounded to five decimal places)
