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.

                              4/(x+1) = 3/x + 1/15
Should we make common denominators with everything, we get
           4*15*x / [15x(x+1)] = 3*15*(x+1)/[15x(x+1)] + x(x+1)/[15x(x+1)]
Multiply both sides of the equation by the denominator to cancel them
                                         60x = 45(x+1) + x(x+1)
                                         60x = 45x + 45 + x^2 + x
                       x^2 - 14x + 45 = 0
                               (x-9)(x-5)  = 0
The answer to this question is that the solutions are x=9 and x=5.

MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

Total earned= $850

Step-by-step explanation:

Giving the following information:

David makes 17 dollars in an hour and works 25 hours each week Linda makes 25 dollars in an hour and works 17 hours.

<u>To calculate the total earned, we need to use the following formula:</u>

Total earned= 17*25 + 25*17

Total earned= $850

What is the area of a regular hexagon (6 sides) whose
Ganezh [65]

Step-by-step explanation:

With reference to the regular hexagon, from the image above we can see that it is formed by six triangles whose sides are two circle's radii and the hexagon's side. The angle of each of these triangles' vertex that is in the circle center is equal to 360∘6=60∘ and so must be the two other angles formed with the triangle's base to each one of the radii: so these triangles are equilateral.

The apothem divides equally each one of the equilateral triangles in two right triangles whose sides are circle's radius, apothem and half of the hexagon's side. Since the apothem forms a right angle with the hexagon's side and since the hexagon's side forms 60∘ with a circle's radius with an endpoint in common with the hexagon's side, we can determine the side in this fashion:

tan60∘=opposed cathetusadjacent cathetus => √3=Apothemside2 => side=(2√3)Apothem

As already mentioned the area of the regular hexagon is formed by the area of 6 equilateral triangles (for each of these triangle's the base is a hexagon's side and the apothem functions as height) or:

Shexagon=6⋅S△=6(base)(height)2=3(2√3)Apothem⋅Apothem=(6√3)(Apothem)2

=> Shexagon=6×62√3=216
