Without looking, Santiago took a handful of multi-colored candies from a bag and found that 20% of the candies were yellow and 1

5% were green. Suppose there were 480 candies in the bag. Based on Santiago's results, how many more yellow candies would you expect there to be than green candies?

I came up with 8 yellow and 6 green so therefore the answer is two more yellow candies were expected

There are 24 more yellow candies than green. 480 x .20 = 96, while 480 x .15 = 72. 96-72 = 24

Y=4x-2tan(x), (-pi/2,pi/2)<br> which are the relative min and max?
Jlenok [28]

relative max  = pi -2

relative min   = -2 pi

Step-by-step explanation:

y= 4x- 2tan(x), (-pi/2,pi/2)

To find relative max and min,

According to mathematical procedure to find relative max and relative min,

the following procedure should be carry out.

Derivating equation with respect to x,

          \frac{dy}{dx} =\frac{d}{dx}  (4\times x -2 \times tan x).....(1)

Equating equation (1) to Zero,

We get,

           0 =\frac{d}{dy}  (4\times x -2 \times tan x)

           0 =  4 -2 \times sec^{2}  x

           4 = 2 \times sec^{2}  x

           2 = sec^{2}  x

           x= \frac{\pi }{4}....stationary point

There are total three points

1. -pi/2      2. pi/2      3. pi/4

checking local min and local max

first considering -pi/2;

                   \frac{d^{2}y  }{dx^{2} } =\frac{d^{2} }{dx^{2} }  (4\times x -2 \times tan x)...(2)

putting x= pi/4 in equation (2),

we get,      

                   \frac{d^{2}y  }{dx^{2} } = -4 <0      

So, we have local max at x=pi/4

by putting value of x in equation (1);

we get,

                 y =   4\times (\pi /4 ) -2 \times tan (\pi /4 )

                y = \pi - 2  .... is maximum point.

Similarly,  at  x= -pi/ 2,

                  \frac{d^{2}y  }{dx^{2} } = 1 >0

So, we have local min at x=-pi/2

by putting value of x in equation (1);

we get,

                 y =   4\times (-\pi /2 ) -2 \times tan (-\pi /2 )

                 y =  -2 \times \pi.... is minimum point

Answer:

The equation of hyperbola :  \frac{y^{2} }{49 } - \frac{x^{2} }{32 }

Step-by-step explanation:

Given - This hyperbola is centered at the origin.

Foci: (0,-9) and (0,9) Vertices: (0,-7) and (0,7)​

To find - Find its equation.

Solution -

We know  that,

Equation of Hyperbola is represented by

\frac{y^{2} }{a^{2} } - \frac{x^{2} }{b^{2} }

Now,

Given that,

Foci : F(0, -9) and F'(0, 9)

So,

c = 9

And

Vertices : A(0,-7) and A'(0,7)​

So,

a = 7

Also, we know that,

c² = a² + b²

⇒b² = c² - a²

⇒b² = 9² - 7²

⇒b² = 81 - 49

⇒b² = 32

So,

The equation of hyperbola becomes

\frac{y^{2} }{49 } - \frac{x^{2} }{32 }

What is the value of x<br>|5x + 6| + 6 = x​
zimovet [89]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

absolute(5x + 6) = x

There are 2 solutions to this

Solution 1

5x + 6 = x                    Subtract 5x from both sides.

5x - 5x + 6 = x - 5x

6 = - 4x                       Divide by - 4

6/ - 4  = -4x / -4

x = - 1.5

Solution 2

5x + 6 = - x

6 = -x - 5x

6 = - 6x

x = 6/-6

x = - 1

Here is a graph which shows the solutions.
