lukranit [14]

12.50 x 40 = 500; this is his first week pay from $12.50 an hour for 40 hours

(15 x 55) + 100 = 925; this is the second pay from $15 an hour for 55 hours and an additional $100

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

A motor club has estimated that a 325 mile car trip will take 6 1/2 hours. What is the club assuming to be the average speed mil

In-s [12.5K]

<u>Answer: </u>

The average speed that the club is assuming is 50 miles per hour

<u>Solution: </u>

We know that Distance = Speed × Time.

Here it is given that distance is 325 miles and the time to cover 325 miles is $6_{2}^{1}$ hours which is equal to $\frac{13}{2}$ hours.

Now to find the average speed mile per hour we use the formula

$\begin{aligned} \text { Speed } &=\frac{\text { Distance }}{\text { time }} \\ &=\frac{325}{\frac{13}{2}} \\ &=\frac{325 \times 2}{13} \end{aligned}$

By cancelling 325 by 13 we get 25

= 25 × 2

= 50 miles per hour

Thus the average speed that the club is assuming is 50 miles per hour.
