Answer: 340 students

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of students walking to school is 119 and this is 35% of the total number of students.

Assume the total number is denoted by "x".

That would mean that the following formula captures the situation:

119 = 35% * x

119 = 0.35x

x = 119/ 0.35

= 340 students

alexira [117]

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

Let x and y be two positive integers and their sum is 14:

X + y = 14

And the sum of square of this number is:

f = x2 + y2

 = x2+ (14 – x)2

Differentiate with respect to x, we get:

F’(x) = [ x2 + (14 – x)2]’ = 0

        2x + 2(14-x)(-1) = 0

        2x +( 28 – 2x)(-1) = 0

     2x – 28 +2x = 0

        2x + 2x = 28

         4x = 28

       X = 7

Hence, y = 14 – x = 14 -7 = 7

Now taking second derivative test:

F”(x) > 0

For x = y = 7,f reaches its maximum value:

(7)2 + (7)2 = 49 + 49

                   = 98

F at endpoints x Є [ 0, 14]

F(0) = 02 + (14 – 0)2

       =  196

F(14) = (14)2 + (14 – 14)2

  = 196

Hence the sum of squares of these numbers is minimum when x = y = 7

And maximum when numbers are 0 and 14.
