Given two numbers x and y such that:
x + y = 12 ... (1)
<span>two numbers will maximize the product g</span>
from equation (1)
y = 12 - x
Using this value of y, we represent xy as
xy = f(x)= x(12 - x)
f(x) = 12x - x^2
Differentiating the above function:
f'(x) = 12 - 2x
Maximum value of f(x) occurs at point for which f'(x) = 0.
Equating f'(x) to 0 we get:
12 - 2x = 0
2x = 12
> x = 12/2 = 6
Substituting this value of x in equation (2):
y = 12 - 6 = 6
Therefore, value of xy is maximum when:
x = 6 and y = 6
The maximum value of xy = 6*6 = 36
Answer:
18p
Step-by-step explanation:
The given quadrilateral ABCD is a parallelogram since the opposite sides are of same length AB and DC is 4 and AD and BC is 2.
<u>Step-by-step explanation</u>:
ABCD is a quadrilateral with their opposite sides are congruent (equal).
The both pairs of opposite sides are given as AB = 3 + x
, DC = 4x
, AD = y + 1
, BC = 2y.
- AB and DC are opposite sides and have same measure of length.
- AD and BC are opposite sides and have same measure of length.
<u>To find the length of AB and DC :</u>
AB = DC
3 + x = 4x
Keep x terms on one side and constant on other side.
3 = 4x - x
3 = 3x
x = 1
Substiute x=1 in AB and DC,
AB = 3+1 = 4
DC = 4(1) = 4
<u>To find the length of AD and BC :</u>
AD = BC
y + 1 = 2y
Keep y terms on one side and constant on other side.
2y-y = 1
y = 1
Substiute y=1 in AD and BC,
AD = 1+1 = 2
BC = 2(1) = 2
Therefore, the opposite sides are of same length AB and DC is 4 and AD and BC is 2. The given quadrilateral ABCD is a parallelogram.
There can’t be one formed because all sides of a triangle add up to 180 but when you add that it adds to 190 there for it will not make a triangle
