Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We require 2 equations in 2 variables

let x be the number of salads sold and y the number of drinks sold, then the 2 equations are

x + y = 209 → (1)

6.5x + 2y = 836.5 → (2)

Multiplying (1) by - 2 and adding to (2) will eliminate y

- 2x - 2y = - 418 → (3)

Add (2) and (3) term by term

(6.5x - 2x) + (2y - 2y) = (836.5 - 418) ← simplify

4.5x = 418.5 ( divide both sides by 4.5 )

x = 93

The number of salads sold was 93

What is the maximum height of of Anna's golf ball? The equation is y=x−0.04x2.

elena-s [515]

Given:

The height of a golf ball is represented by the equation:

$y=x-0.04x^2$

To find:

The maximum height of of Anna's golf ball.

Solution:

We have,

$y=x-0.04x^2$

Differentiate with respect to x.

$y'=1-0.04(2x)$

$y'=1-0.08x$

For critical values, $y'=0$ .

$1-0.08x=0$

$-0.08x=-1$

$x=\dfrac{-1}{-0.08}$

$x=12.5$

Differentiate y' with respect to x.

$y''=(0)-0.08(1)$

$y''=-0.08$

Since double derivative is negative, the function is maximum at $x=12.5$ .

Substitute $x=12.5$ in the given equation to get the maximum height.

$y=(12.5)-0.04(12.5)^2$

$y=12.5-0.04(156.25)$

$y=12.5-6.25$

$y=6.25$

Therefore, the maximum height of of Anna's golf ball is 6.25 units.
