Answer:

a) The function is: f(x, y) = x + y.

The constraint is: x*y = 196.

Remember that we must write the constraint as:

g(x, y) = x*y - 196 = 0

Then we have:

L(x, y, λ) = f(x, y) +  λ*g(x, y)

L(x, y,  λ) = x + y +  λ*(x*y - 196)

Now, let's compute the partial derivations, those must be zero.

dL/dx =  λ*y + 1

dL/dy =  λ*x + 1

dL/dλ = (x*y - 196)

Those must be equal to zero, then we have a system of equations:

λ*y + 1 = 0

λ*x + 1 = 0

(x*y - 196) = 0

Let's solve this, in the first equation we can isolate  λ to get:

λ = -1/y

Now we can replace this in the second equation and get;

-x/y + 1 = 0

Now let's isolate x.

x = y

Now we can replace this in the last equation, and we will get:

(x*x - 196) = 0

x^2 = 196

x = √196 = 14

then the minimum will be:

x + y = x + x = 14 + 14 = 28.

b) Now we have:

f(x) = x*y

g(x) = x + y - 196

Let's do the same as before:

L(x, y, λ) = f(x, y) +  λ*g(x, y)

L(x, y, λ) = x*y +  λ*(x + y - 196)

Now let's do the derivations:

dL/dx = y + λ

dL/dy = x + λ

dL/dλ = x + y - 196

Now we have the system of equations:

y + λ = 0

x + λ = 0

x + y - 196 = 0

To solve it, we can isolate lambda in the first equation to get:

λ = -y

Now we can replace this in the second equation:

x - y = 0

Now we can isolate x:

x = y

now we can replace that in the last equation

y + y - 196 = 0

2*y - 196 = 0

2*y = 196

y = 196/2 = 98

The maximum will be:

x*y = y*y = 98*98 = 9,604

Which expression is equivalent to...

Answer:

x^{\frac{2}{7} } y^{-\frac{3}{5} } \\  i.e answer A.

Step-by-step explanation:

This question involves knowing the following power/exponent rule:

\sqrt[n]{x^m} = x^\frac{m}{n} \\\\so \sqrt[7]{x^2} = x^\frac{2}{7} \\\\and  \\\\ \sqrt[5]{y^3} = y^\frac{3}{5} \\

Next, when a power is on the bottom of a fraction, if we want to move it to the top, this makes the power become negative.

so the y-term, when moved to the top of the fraction, becomes:

y^{-\frac{3}{5} } \\

So the answer is: x^{\frac{2}{7} } y^{-\frac{3}{5} } \\

5.8 = x/2.2<br><br> A: 127.6<br> B: 0.37<br> C: 3.7<br> D: 12.76
Nataly [62]
Hi there! To solve this, all we have to do is multiply each side by 2.2 to cancel out the variable and to find the value for it. 5.8 * 2.2 is 12.76. 12.76/2.2 is 5.8. x = 12.76. The answer is D.

Step-by-step explanation:

1) angle 1 = 180 - (85 + 40)

2) angle 2 has the same measure of angle 1

3) angle 3 is 180 - (55 + 55)

4) angles 1 and 2 are vertical and congruent
