jorge was tracking the decreasing temperature in the morning. at 7 a.m. it was 65 degrees fahrenheit. at 9 a.m. it was 55 degree

s fahrenheit. If Jorge made the function f(x) = −5x + 100, what would the −5 represent? The temperature at midnight The length of time he recorded for The total change in degrees The rate at which the temperature was decreasing ??? help please

<span>if at 7 it was 65 and at 9 it was 55, that means temperature is decreasing by 5 per hour</span>

How to find two fractions between 1/2 and 1/3

raketka [301]

1. write 1/2 and 1/3 as fractions with a common denominator.

the common denominator must be a multiple of both 2 and 3, for example 6, 12, 24 etc...

let the common denominator be 24

(1/2)(12/12)=12/24

(1/3)(8/8)=8/24

2. so , 9/24, 10/24, 11/24 are all fractions between 1/2 and 1/3

The equation for the line of best fit is y=2x+2.5. Soon, Edmond is going to a new fair. Use the equation for the line of best fi

andriy [413]

Answer:

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line is given by :

y=2x+2.5

Where

y is cost and x is number of tickets

Put y = $12.5 in the above equation

So,

12.5=2x+2.5

10 = 2x

x = 5

So, he can purchase 5 tickets.

The number is odd.

77julia77 [94]

Answer:

Wow thats pretty hard the only things i could guess was the first one could be 18+ 18=36 and then there 6X6=36. but neither of those are greater than 50. And both of them are less than 75.

Step-by-step explanation:

Is this for a class??

EXAMPLE 5 Find the maximum value of the function f(x, y, z) = x + 2y + 11z on the curve of intersection of the plane x − y + z =

Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

$\displaystyle x= -\frac{10}{\sqrt{269}}\\\\\displaystyle y= \frac{13}{\sqrt{269}}\\\\\displaystyle z = \frac{23\sqrt{269}+269}{269}$

<em>Maximum value of f=2.41</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Lagrange Multipliers</u>

It's a method to optimize (maximize or minimize) functions of more than one variable subject to equality restrictions.

Given a function of three variables f(x,y,z) and a restriction in the form of an equality g(x,y,z)=0, then we are interested in finding the values of x,y,z where both gradients are parallel, i.e.

$\bigtriangledown f=\lambda \bigtriangledown g$

for some scalar $\lambda$ called the Lagrange multiplier.

For more than one restriction, say g(x,y,z)=0 and h(x,y,z)=0, the Lagrange condition is

$\bigtriangledown f=\lambda \bigtriangledown g+\mu \bigtriangledown h$

The gradient of f is

$\bigtriangledown f=$

Considering each variable as independent we have three equations right from the Lagrange condition, plus one for each restriction, to form a 5x5 system of equations in $x,y,z,\lambda,\mu$ .

We have

$f(x, y, z) = x + 2y + 11z\\g(x, y, z) = x - y + z -1=0\\h(x, y, z) = x^2 + y^2 -1= 0$

Let's compute the partial derivatives

$f_x=1\ ,f_y=2\ ,f_z=11\ \\g_x=1\ ,g_y=-1\ ,g_z=1\\h_x=2x\ ,h_y=2y\ ,h_z=0$

The Lagrange condition leads to

$1=\lambda (1)+\mu (2x)\\2=\lambda (-1)+\mu (2y)\\11=\lambda (1)+\mu (0)$

Operating and simplifying

$1=\lambda+2x\mu\\2=-\lambda +2y\mu \\\lambda=11$

Replacing the value of $\lambda$ in the two first equations, we get

$1=11+2x\mu\\2=-11 +2y\mu$

From the first equation

$\displaystyle 2\mu=\frac{-10}{x}$

Replacing into the second

$\displaystyle 13=y\frac{-10}{x}$

Or, equivalently

$13x=-10y$

Squaring

$169x^2=100y^2$

To solve, we use the restriction h

$x^2 + y^2 = 1$

Multiplying by 100

$100x^2 + 100y^2 = 100$

Replacing the above condition

$100x^2 + 169x^2 = 100$

Solving for x

$\displaystyle x=\pm \frac{10}{\sqrt{269}}$

We compute the values of y by solving

$13x=-10y$

$\displaystyle y=-\frac{13x}{10}$

For

$\displaystyle x= \frac{10}{\sqrt{269}}$

$\displaystyle y= -\frac{13}{\sqrt{269}}$

And for

$\displaystyle x= -\frac{10}{\sqrt{269}}$

$\displaystyle y= \frac{13}{\sqrt{269}}$

Finally, we get z using the other restriction

$x - y + z = 1$

Or:

$z = 1-x+y$

The first solution yields to

$\displaystyle z = 1-\frac{10}{\sqrt{269}}-\frac{13}{\sqrt{269}}$

$\displaystyle z = \frac{-23\sqrt{269}+269}{269}$

And the second solution gives us

$\displaystyle z = 1+\frac{10}{\sqrt{269}}+\frac{13}{\sqrt{269}}$

$\displaystyle z = \frac{23\sqrt{269}+269}{269}$

Complete first solution:

$\displaystyle x= \frac{10}{\sqrt{269}}\\\\\displaystyle y= -\frac{13}{\sqrt{269}}\\\\\displaystyle z = \frac{-23\sqrt{269}+269}{269}$

Replacing into f, we get

f(x,y,z)=-0.4

Complete second solution:

$\displaystyle x= -\frac{10}{\sqrt{269}}\\\\\displaystyle y= \frac{13}{\sqrt{269}}\\\\\displaystyle z = \frac{23\sqrt{269}+269}{269}$

Replacing into f, we get

f(x,y,z)=2.4

The second solution maximizes f to 2.4
