Answer:

d

Step-by-step explanation:

school is only 5 days a week and if she walks 60 yards to the bus stop and 60 yards back from the bus stop than she walks a total of 120 yards a day

120 x 5 =600 the answers are in feet so we need to convert to feet and to do that we need to multiply by 3

600x3=1800

so she walks 1800 feet in a normal school week

Find three positive numbers whose sum is 140 and whose product is a maximum. (Enter your answers as a comma-separated list.)

Paladinen [302]

Answer:

$\frac{140}{3}, \frac{140}{3}, \frac{140}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the numbers be $x, y\ and\ z.$

Such that:

$x + y + z = 140$

Make z the subject

$z = 140 -x - y$

For their product to be maximum, we have:

$f(x,y,z) = xyz$

Substitute $z = 140 -x - y$ in $f(x,y,z) = xyz$

$f(x,y) = xy(140 - x - y)$

Open bracket

$f(x,y) = 140xy - x^2y - xy^2$

Differentiate w.r.t x and y

$f_x=140y - 2xy - y^2$

$f_y=140x - x^2 - 2xy$

Since the products are maximum, then $f_x = f_y = 0$

For $f_x=140y - 2xy - y^2$

$140y - 2xy - y^2 = 0$

Factorize:

$y(140 - 2x - y) = 0$

Split

$y = 0\ or\ 140 - 2x - y = 0$

Make y the subject

$y = 0\ or\ y = 140 - 2x$

For $f_y=140x - x^2 - 2xy$

$140x - x^2 - 2xy = 0$

---------------------------------------------------

Substitute y = 0

$140x - x^2 -2x*0 = 0$

$140x - x^2 = 0$

Factorize

$x(140 - x)= 0$

$x = 0\ or\ 140-x = 0$

$x = 0\ or\ x = 140$

---------------------------------------------------

Substitute $y = 140 - 2x$

$140x - x^2 - 2xy = 0$

$140x - x^2 - 2x(140 - 2x) = 0$

$140x - x^2 - 280x + 4x^2 = 0$

Re-arrange

$4x^2 -x^2 +140x - 280x = 0$

$3x^2 -140x = 0$

Factor x out

$x(3x - 140) = 0$

Divide through by x

$3x - 140 = 0$

$3x = 140$

$x = \frac{140}{3}$

Recall that: $y = 140 - 2x$

$y = 140 - 2 * \frac{140}{3}$

$y = 140 - \frac{280}{3}$

Take LCM

$y = \frac{140*3-280}{3}$

$y = \frac{140}{3}$

Recall that:

$z = 140 -x - y$

$z = 140 - \frac{140}{3} - \frac{140}{3}$

Take LCM

$z = \frac{3 * 140- 140 - 140}{3}$

$z = \frac{140}{3}$

Hence, the numbers are:

$\frac{140}{3}, \frac{140}{3}, \frac{140}{3}$

This is very hard for me I need to know how to do it

insens350 [35]

The zeros of a function are the values of x that make the function be equal to zero.

When graphing a quadratic equation, the graph is a parabola, and the zeros of the function are the x-intercepts of the graph, which are the points where the graph intersects the x-axis.

So, if the zeros of this function are x = -8 and x = 2, that means the parabola crosses the x-axis at x = -8 and x = 2.

Therefore the correct option is the first one.

Consider the radical equation √c+22 = c + 2.

dimulka [17.4K]

First square both sides to get:

c + 22 = (c + 2)^2

or

c + 22 = c^2 + 4c + 4

Move the terms on the left side to the right side:

c^2 + 3c - 18 = 0

Factor to get:

(c + 6) * (c - 3) = 0.

The solutions are c = -6 and c = 3.

Check to see if these answers work by plugging them into the original equation:

c = -6:

sqrt (-6 + 22) ?= -6 + 2

But, -6 + 2 is a negative number, and you can't get a negative from a square root. So, -6 is extraneous.

c = 3:

sqrt (3 + 22) ?= 3 + 2

5 = 5. So, 3 works.

The answer is: B
