Answer:
x = y = 22
Step-by-step explanation:
It would help to know your math course. Do you know any calculus? I'll assume not.
Equations
x + y = 44
Max = xy
Solution
y = 44 - x
Max = x (44 - x) Remove the brackets
Max = 44x - x^2 Use the distributive property to take out - 1 on the right.
Max = - (x^2 - 44x ) Complete the square inside the brackets.
Max = - (x^2 - 44x + (44/2)^2 ) + (44 / 2)^2 . You have to understand this step. What you have done is taken 1/2 the x term and squared it. You are trying to complete the square. You must compensate by adding that amount on the end of the equation. You add because of that minus sign outside the brackets. The number inside will be minus when the brackets are removed.
Max = -(x - 22)^2 + 484
The maximum occurs when x = 22. That's because - (x - 22) becomes 0.
If it is not zero it will be minus and that will subtract from 484
x + y = 44
xy = 484
When you solve this, you find that x = y = 22 If you need more detail, let me know.
We need to start from the innermost parenthesis and work our way out.
The first parenthesis is
. These are not like terms because one involves a variable, while the other is a constant term. Two terms are summable if they involve the same power(s) of the same variable(s).
So, we can take one step outwards, and we arrive to the square brackets. We have

and 2z and -13z are like terms, so we can sum them:

Finally we arrive to the whole expression, which is

Because, again, 5z and 11z were like terms.
Answer:
A = 28.125 * pi cm^2
A = 88.357 cm^2
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of a sector is 1/2 r^2 theta where theta is in radians
convert 45 degrees to radians
theta = 45 * pi/180 = pi/4
A = 1/2 * 15^2 * pi/4
A =1/2 * 225 * pi/4
A = 28.125 * pi cm^2
A = 88.357 cm^2
That is what it looks like
