Yay for Calculus!
First, use the equation:
xy=S
This is x times y is equal to sum, or S.
Then, use the equation x + y = 200.
Then, solve for x or y. I will solve for y.
Doing so gives me the equation y = 200 - x
Next, use this value for y in the equation xy = S.
Give: x(200-x) = S
Simplify: 200x - x^2 = S.
Take the derivative: 200 - 2x = S'
Set it equal to 0 for critical numbers: 200 - 2x = 0
Solve: -2x = -200
Solve: 2x = 200
Sove: x = 100, which is one of your integers. The other is also 100.

from “A Talk to Teachers” by James Baldwin What passes for identity in America is a series of myths about one’s heroic ancestors
mezya [45]

Answer:

Explanation:

If you are referring to "There is nothing we can do about it." then the purpose is to wake us up to an attitude that exists in what passes for education. A person with a good moral education would be horrified at the thought that nothing can be done. That a person like Governor Wallace could utter such a statement and no one is outraged.

We have to be outraged at such statements. We have to know that the very core of human dignity is being attacked when "nothing can be done."

Baldwin is also trying to point out that we think we are better than the convicts that were on the Mayflower. We think we have progressed in some way.

Baldwin thinks we have not. Not as long as we do nothing when there is one set of behaviors for one color people and one set for the blacks.
