The golden ratio is a solution to a quadratic equation.

Mathematics
1 answer:
Crank3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Below.

Step-by-step explanation:

a.    Φ^2 − Φ − 1 = 0

Φ2 − Φ = 1

(Φ - 0.5)^2 - 0.25 = 1

(Φ - 0.5)^2 = 1.25

Φ - 0.5 = √(1.25)      (We only take the positive root).

Φ  = 0.5 + √(1.25)

b. I used Completing the square.

c.  Φ is irrational That is it cannot be represented as a fraction a/b and because of this it can only be approximated by a decimal.

Find two positive numbers whose product is 64 and whose sum is a minimum. (If both values are the same number, enter it into bot
DedPeter [7]

Answer:

X = 8, y = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

This question is an optimization problem. Two equations are going to be needed here

n = x+y

P = xy

Such that 64 = xy

When we divide through by x we get:

y = 64/x

So that n becomes:

n = x + 64/x

n = x+64x^-1

We take derivative

n' = 1-64x^-2

When n' = 0 then a min|max occurs

0 = 1-64x^-2

Such that:

64/x² = 1

Divide through by x²

64 = x²

x = √64

x = 8

Remember y = 64/x

So,

Y = 64/8

Y = 8.

X = 8, y = 8

Thank you!
