Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

let one no. be 'x'.

the other no. is (x+2)

therefore the eq. is:

x+x+2= -68

2x+2= -68

2x = -68-2

    = -70

x= -70/2

 = -35

one number is -35

other number is (x+2) = -35 + 2

                                     = -33

A small pie factory needs to ship 360 pies a day to stay profitable. 180 pies are baked every 3 hours. Of the baked pies, 20% go
luda_lava [24]

Answer:

Constant of proportionality should be 48.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a small pie factory needs to ship 360 pies a day to stay profitable. 180 pies are baked every 3 hours. Of the baked pies, 20% go directly to freezer storage and 80% are loaded on a truck for delivery.

Now we need to find about what is the constant of proportionality for the number of pies baked and loaded on a truck for delivery.

Number of baked pies = 180

Number of pies loaded on truck for delivery = 80% of baked pies

= 0.80(180)= 144 in 3 hours.

So number of pies loaded per hour = 144/3= 48

Hence constant of proportionality should be 48.

Answer:

a movie, m is 3

a video game, v is 5.5

Brainliest would be really appreciated. (need it to unlock chat)

Feel free to ask further questions if you feel like it.

Till then, have a nice day

Step-by-step explanation:

I 5m+2v=26

II 3m+8v=53

I 5m+2v=26 devide by 2 on both sides

5/2m+v=13 subtract 5/2m om both sides

v=13-5/2m

Now put this whole thing in the other equation II, replacing the v there

3m+8(13-5/2m)=53 just calculate it

3m+104-20m=53

-17m+104=53 subtract 53 on both sides

-17m+51=0 add 17m on both sides

51=17m devide by 17

3=m

we found m, v is easy

now put m in an equation from the start, let's take equation I here

I 5m+2v=26

5*(3)+2v=26

15+2v=26 subtract 15 on both sides

2v = 11 devide by 2

v = 5.5

So we found m and v, prices for single items. we can proof this when we put m and v into a given equation and the if it equals a true value

m & v in II

II 3m+8v=53

3*(3)+8*(5.5)=53

9+44=53

53=53

Seems legit.

The temperature function (in degrees Fahrenheit) in a three dimensional space is given by T(x, y, z) = 3x + 6y - 6z + 1. A bee i
madam [21]

You're looking for the extreme values of T(x,y,z)=3x+6y-6z+1 subject to x^2+y^2+z^2=9. The Lagrangian is

L(x,y,z,\lambda)=3x+6y-6z+1+\lambda(x^2+y^2+z^2-9)

with critical wherever the partial derivatives vanish:

L_x=3+2\lambda x=0\implies x=-\dfrac3{2\lambda}

L_y=6+2\lambda y=0\implies y=-\dfrac3\lambda

L_z=-6+2\lambda z=0\implies z=\dfrac3\lambda

L_\lambda=x^2+y^2+z^2-9=0

Substituting the first three solutions into the last equation gives

\dfrac9{4\lambda^2}+\dfrac9{\lambda^2}+\dfrac9{\lambda^2}=9

\implies\lambda=\pm\dfrac32

\implies x=1,y=2,z=-2\text{ or }x=-1,y=-2,z=2

At these points, we have

T(1,2,-2)=28

T(-1,-2,2)=-26

so the highest temperature the bee can experience is 28º F at the point (1, 2, -2), and the lowest is -26º F at the point (-1, -2, 2).
