Let, the numbers = x,y
x+y= 24 1st eqn
x-y = 44 2nd eqn
24-y-y = 44
-2y = 44-24
y = 20/-2 = -10
substitute that in equation 1st x = 24+10 = 34
so, the numbers would be 34 & -10
It is quite simple actually since it is simple division with the negative rules.
Just simplify the problem and use the negatives to determine if it is positive or negative. (two negatives equal a positive and one negative equals a negative)
Answer:
63 units
Step-by-step explanation:
The profit function P(x) is given by the revenue function minus the cost function:
The number of units sold 'x' for which the derivate of the profit function is zero, is the number of units that maximizes profit:
The number of units that should be manufactured so that profit is maximum is 63 units.
x = number of hours after 9 am (eg: x = 1 means 1 hr after 9 am, so 10 am)
f(x) = population count x hours after 9 am
f(1) = population count at 10 am (1 hour later)
f(2) = population count at 11 am (2 hrs after 9 am)
f(2) - f(1) represents the difference in population counts from 10 am to 11 am, or put another way, how much the population increased during that time interval.
