<span>the sum of the first and three times the second is 54.

x + 3y = 54 

3y = 54 - x 

y=  54 /3  -  x  /  3  = 18 -x /3

</span>xy = x  (18 -x /3) =  18x   -  x^2  / 3  =  - 1/3 x ^ 2  + 18 x 
<span>

</span><span>since a<0, it is concave downward, and the vertex is the maximum value. That vertex occurs at x= - b /2a = (-18) / (-2/3) = 12
</span>

<span>The first number is x=12.
The second is y = </span><span>18 -x /3 = 18- 12/ 3 = 18  - 4 = 14 </span>

An E. coli bacterium has a diameter of about 5×10^-7 meter. Write this measurement as a decimal in standard notation. Explain .
Archy [21]
5<span>×</span>10^-7 = 0.0000005 
When 10 is to a negative power, you move the decimal to the left because the number is less than positive 1. Here 10 is to the power of -7, so you move the decimal (which is after/behind 5) to the left 7 times.

Simplify -12w + 7w - 3 - 6
aleksley [76]

Answer: Hi!

We can simplify this by combining like terms:

-12w + 7w <em>- 3 - 6</em>

-12w + 7w = -5w

-3 - 6 = -9

Out equation now looks like this:

-5w - 9

There's nothing left to simplify, so we're done!

Hope this helps!
