${x}^{2} - 4x + 5 = 0 \\ {x}^{2} - 4x = - 5 \\ \\ { (\frac{b}{2} )}^{2} = ( \frac{ - 4}{2} ) = ( { - 2})^{2} = 4 \\ {x}^{2} - 4x + 4 = - 5 + 4 \\ {(x - 2)}^{2} = - 1 \\ {(x - 2)}^{2} + 1$
The last line is in vertex form, and can see the vertex is located at (2,1).

You need to do y=a(x-h)2 +k but your vertex is ( 2,1)

The mean score of 8 players is 14.5. If the highest individual score is removed the mean of the score of the remaining 7 players

AfilCa [17]

Answer:

The highest score is 32.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

The mean score of 8 players is 14.5.

Let x denote the highest score.

If x is removed, the mean of the score of the remaining 7 players is 12.

Formula for mean:

$\bar{x} = \dfrac{\displaystyle\sum x_i}{n}$

Putting values, we get:

$14.5 = \dfrac{\displaystyle\sum x_i}{8}\\\\\Rightarrow \displaystyle\sum x_i = 116\\\\12 = \dfrac{\displaystyle\sum y_i}{7}\\\\\Rightarrow \displaystyle\sum y_i = 84\\\\\displaystyle\sum y_i = \displaystyle\sum x_i -x \\\\84 = 116 - x\\\Rightarrow x = 32$

Thus, the highest score is 32.

Anna, Boris, and Clara thought of 1 number each Ana's number increased by 20 is 21 greater than boris's number decreased by 22.

sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

Clara's number is 42 less than Anna's number

Step-by-step explanation:

We can start this problem out by setting our variables up:

A= Anna's number

B= Boris's number

C= Clara's number

so we can use them to build our equations. We can sepparate the problem into little more understandable pieces of information, let's start with the first piece of information:

- "Ana's number increased by 20"

A+20

- "boris's number decreased by 22"

B-22

- "21 greater than boris's number decreased by 22."

(B-22)+21

- "Ana's number increased by 20 is 21 greater than boris's number decreased by 22."

A+20=(B-22)+21

This is our first important equation here. Let's go with the second part of the problem:

- "Boris's number decreased by 20"

B-20

- "claras number increased by 22"

C+22

- "21 greater than claras number increased by 22"

(C+22)+21

Now the whole thing:

"Boris's number decreased by 20 is 21 greater than claras number increased by 22."

B-20=(C+22)+21

This is our second important equation.

So now we have the following system of equations:

A+20=(B-22)+21

B-20=(C+22)+21

We can now simplify the equations by combining like terms so we get:

Equation 1:

A+20=(B-22)+21

we can get rid of the parenthesis so we get:

A+20=B-22+21

We can subtract a 20 from both sides of the equation so we get:

A=B-22+21-20

We perform the subtractions so we get:

A=B-21

Equation 2:

B-20=(C+22)+21

We get rid of the parenthesis:

B-20=C+22+21

We add a 20 to both sides so we get:

B=C+22+21+20

We can now perform the additions so we get:

B=C+63

And now we can combine the equations. In this case we can substitute equation 2 into equation 1 to get:

A=C+63-21

We combine like terms to get:

A=C+42

We can subtract 42 from both sides to get:

C=A-42

which reads:

Clara's number is 42 less than Anna's number.

Given P = x^0.3 y^0.7 is the chicken lay eggs production function, where P is the number of eggs lay, x is the number of workers

lora16 [44]

Answer:

Part A)

$\displaystyle \frac{dy}{dx}=-\frac{3}{7}P^\frac{10}{7}x^{-\frac{10}{7}}$

Part B)

The daily operating cost decreases by about $143 per extra worker.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the equation:

$\displaystyle P=x^{\frac{3}{10}}y^{\frac{7}{10}}$

Where P is the number of eggs laid, x is the number of workers, and y is the daily operating budget (assuming in US dollars $).

We want to find dy/dx.

So, let’s find our equation in terms of x. We can raise both sides to 10/7. Hence:

$\displaystyle P^\frac{10}{7}=\Big(x^\frac{3}{10}y^\frac{7}{10}\Big)^\frac{10}{7}$

Simplify:

$\displaystyle P^\frac{10}{7}=x^\frac{3}{7}y$

Divide both sides by the x term to acquire:

$\displaystyle y=P^\frac{10}{7}x^{-\frac{3}{7}}$

Take the derivative of both sides with respect to x:

$\displaystyle \frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{d}{dx}\Big[P^\frac{10}{7}x^{-\frac{3}{7}}\Big]$

Apply power rule. Note that P is simply a constant. Hence:

$\displaystyle \frac{dy}{dx}=P^\frac{10}{7}(-\frac{3}{7})(x^{-\frac{10}{7}})$

Simplify. Hence, our derivative is:

$\displaystyle \frac{dy}{dx}=-\frac{3}{7}P^\frac{10}{7}x^{-\frac{10}{7}}$

Part B)

We want to evaluate the derivative when x is 30 and when y is $10,000.

First, we will need to find P. Our original equations tells us that:

$P=x^{0.3}y^{0.7}$

Hence, at x = 30 and at y = 10,000, P is:

$P=(30)^{0.3}(10000)^{0.7}$

Therefore, for our derivative, we will have:

$\displaystyle \frac{dy}{dx}=-\frac{3}{7}\Big(30^{0.3}(10000^{0.7})\Big)^\frac{10}{7}\Big(30^{-\frac{10}{7}}\Big)$

Use a calculator. So:

$\displaystyle \frac{dy}{dx}=-\frac{1000}{7}=-142.857142...\approx-143$

Our derivative is given by dy/dx. So, it represents the change in the daily operating cost over the change in the number of workers.

So, when there are 30 workers with a daily operating cost of $10,000 producing a total of about 1750 eggs, the daily operating cost decreases by about $143 per extra worker.
