25.

The total yards of fence (119.5) / the amount of fence Jamie can paint per hour (4.78) = 25.

One-half of Heather's age 2 years from now plus one-third of her age three years ago is twenty years. How old is she now?

viktelen [127]

She is 24
24+2=26
26(1/2)=13
13+((24-3)1/3)
13+(21*1/3)
13+7=20
Therefore she is 24

Greatest common factor of three univariate monomials. Find the greatest common factor of these three expressions.

Mice21 [21]

Answer:

$9w^{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

An easy way to find the GCF of different numbers is to list out all of their factors. In this case, the coefficients share multiple factors, but the largest is 9.

Additionally, when dividing variables with different powers you subtract the exponents. So, if you were to divide $\frac{w^3}{w^2}$ the final answer would be $w$ because 3-2 is 1. So, to find the GCF of like variables find the biggest number that can be subtracted from all of them. In this case, that is 2; therefore, the GCF of the variables is $w^2$ . Put the 2 parts together for the final answer $9w^{2}$ .

Lagrange Multiplier Million Dollar question. Anybody please Use the method of Lagrange multipliers to find the max and min value

jekas [21]

We are given the equation: g(s,t) = t^2 e^s

Which is subject to the constraint: s^2 + t^2=3

The points (x,y) that will maximize g(s,t) will be the points that will satisfy the equation ∇f(x, y, z) = λ∇g(x, y, z), therefore:

2 t e^s = λ (2 t), so e^s = λ --> 1

t^2 e^s = λ (2 s) --> 2

s^2 + t^2 = 3 -->3

To solve this problem, note that λ cannot be zero by equation 1 since e^s can never be zero. Therefore plug in equation 1 to 2:

t^2 e^s = (e^s) (2 s)

t^2 = 2 s --> 4

Plug in equation 4 to 3:

s^2 + 2s = 3

By completing the square:

s^2 + 2s + 1 = 4

(s + 1)^2 = 4

s + 1 = ±2

s = -3, 1

Calculating for t using equation 4:

when s = -3

t^2 = 2(-3)

t = sqrt(-6)

Since t is imaginary, therefore s=-3 is not a solution

when s = 1

t^2 = 2(1)

t = sqrt(2) = ±1.414

Therefore the maxima and minima points are at:

(1, -1.414) and (1, 1.414)

g(1, -1.414)=(-1.414)^2 e^(1) = 5.434

g(1, -1.414)=( 1.414)^2 e^(1) = 5.434
