Answer:

Alexander estimate is not a good estimate

Step-by-step explanation:

Breakfast = $2

Lunch = $8

Dinner = $8

Total amount spent on food each month = (cost of breakfast × number of days) + (cost of lunch × number of days) + (cost of dinner × number of days)

= ($2 × 30) + ($8 × 30) + ($8 × 30)

= $(60 + 240 + 240)

= $540

Total cost estimate of food in a month = $540

Alexander estimate is not a good estimate

The variables y and x^2 are directly
choli [55]

Answer:

y = \frac{20}{21} x²

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that y and x² are directly proportional then the equation relating them is

y = kx² ← k is the constant of proportion

When x = 2

y = k × 2² = 4k

When x = 5

y = k × 5² = 25k

Then

25k - 4k = 20 ( difference between values is 20 )

21k = 20 ( divide both sides by 21 )

k = \frac{20}{21}

y = \frac{20}{21} x² ← equation of proportion

Among all pairs of numbers with a sum of 238238, find the pair whose product is maximum. Write your answers as fractions reduced
mylen [45]

Answer:

x=119119,\;\;\;y=119119

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the x be the first number, y be the second number and p be the product of the first and second number.

i.e  x+y=238238   \Rightarrow x=238238-y

      p=xy

   \Rightarrow p=(238238-y)y\\\Rightarrow p=238238y-y^2

\Rightarrow \frac{dp}{dy} =238238-2y\\\Rightarrow 0=238238-2y\\\Rightarrow 2y=238238\\\Rightarrow y=119119

Now,

x=238238-119119\\\\ \Rightarrow x=119119

Hence, x=119119,\;\;\;y=119119
