An individual needs a daily supplement of at least 464 units of vitamin C and 252 of vitamin E and agrees to obtain this supplem

ent by eating two foods, I and II. Each ounce of food I contains 32 units of vitamin C and 9 units of vitamin E, while each ounce of food II contains 16 units of vitamin C and also 18 units of vitamin E. The total supplement of these two foods must be at most 35 ounces. Unfortunately, food I contains 48 units of cholesterol per ounce and food II contains 25 units of cholesterol per ounce. Find the appropriate amounts of the two food supplements so that cholesterol is minimized. Find the minimum amount of cholesterol.

Answer:

z (min)  = 705

x₁  = 10

x₂  = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Let´s call  x₁  quantity of food I ( in ou )  and x₂ quantity of food II ( in ou)

          units of vit. C   units of vit.E   Cholesterol by ou

x₁                 32                      9                         48

x₂                16                      18                          25

Objective function z

z  =   48*x₁   +  25*x₂        To minimize

Subject to:

1.-Total units of vit. C at least  464

32*x₁   +  16*x₂     ≥   464

2.- Total units of vit. E at least  252

9*x₁  + 18*x₂   ≥  252

3.- Quantity of ou per day

x₁   +   x₂   ≤  35

General constraints    x₁  ≥ 0    x₂   ≥ 0

Using the on-line simplex method solver (AtoZmaths) and after three iterations the solution is:

z (min)  = 705

x₁  = 10

x₂  = 9

Find the second derivative y= x^2lnx
Dimas [21]
First we use product rule
y=x^2lnx
dy/dx = x^2 d/dx (lnx) + lnx d/dx (x^2)
dy/dx = x^2 (1/x) + lnx (2x)
dy/dx = x + 2xlnx

now taking second derivative:
d2y/dx2 = 1 + 2[x (1/x) + lnx (1)]
d2y/dx2 = 1 + 2[1+lnx]
         1+2+2lnx
         3+2lnx is the answer

What is If a rectangular prism has a length, width, and height of centimeter, centimeter, and centimeter, respectively, then the
USPshnik [31]

Answer:

The volume is 105/512 cubic inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given [Missing from the question]

L = \frac{3}{8} cm -- Length

W=\frac{5}{8}cm -- Width

H = \frac{7}{8}cm -- Height

Required

Determine the volume.

The volume (V) is calculated as thus:

V = L *W *H

V = \frac{3}{8} cm* \frac{5}{8}cm * \frac{7}{8}cm

V = \frac{3}{8} * \frac{5}{8} * \frac{7}{8}cm^3

V = \frac{3*5*7}{8*8*8}cm^3

V = \frac{105}{512}cm^3
