Answer:

The ratio of boys to girls is 4:5. So let 4x be the number of boys and 5x be the number of girls. Then 4x+5x = 9x is the total number of students. Then the fraction of boys in the class is 4x/9x = 4/9.

Locate the absolute extrema of the function on the closed interval:<br> y = 3x^(2/3) - 2x, [-1, 1]
Alecsey [184]
To get the extrema, derive the function.
You get y' = 2x^-1/3 - 2.
Set this equal to zero, and you get x=0 as the location of a critical point.
Since you are on a closed interval [-1, 1], those points can also have an extrema.
Your min is right, but the max isn't at (1,1). At x=-1, you get y=5 (y = 3(-1)^2/3 -2(-1); (-1)^2/3 = 1, not -1).
Thus, the maximum is at (-1, 5).
