Find two numbers whose difference is 16 and whose product is a minimum. (Enter your answers as a comma-separated list.)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

8, -8

Step-by-step explanation:

  Let's say that x is the larger number,

x - y = 16

y = x - 16

xy = P  where P is a minimum  

x(x-16) = P.  

(We can find the vertex, which is the minimum, by writing it in vertex format)  

  Completing square:  

x2 - 16x = P  

x2 - 16x + 64 = P + 64  

(x - 8)2 = P + 64.

 So,

x = 8 and -8

(8 - -8 -> 8 + 8 = 16)

Have a nice day!

Cereal is on sale this week. Is it a better buy to get the 10-ounce box for $2.12 or the 14-ounce box for $2.74?

Answers

First you want to know the price for each ounce. So for the 10 ounce box: 2.12 / 10= $0.212 per ounce. Now for the 14 ounce box : 2.74/ 14 = $0.19 per ounce. So the 14 ounce box is cheaper for $2.74 as 0.19<0.21

The 14-ounce box is cheaper at a cost of $2.74 than the 10-ounce box.

What is the division operation?

In mathematics, divides left-hand operands into right-hand operands in the division operation. The primary purpose of the division is to generate equal groupings or to determine how many people are in each category after a fair distribution.

For example 4/2 = 2

First, we have to find the price for each ounce.

So for the 10-ounce box:

⇒ 2.12 / 10

Apply the division operation,

⇒ $0.212 per ounce.

Now for the 14-ounce box:

⇒ 2.74/ 14

Apply the division operation,

⇒ $0.19 per ounce.

Here the cost of the 14-ounce box is less than the 10-ounce box as 0.19 < 0.21

Therefore, the 14-ounce box is cheaper at a cost of $2.74.

Answer:

8 cm≈ 117.6 cm³

Step-by-step explanation:

Total surface area:

A = 4(1/2*7*l) + 7² = 14l + 49, where l is a slant height

We are given:

A = 161 cm²

Find the value of l:

14l + 49 = 16114l = 112l = 112/14l = 8 cm

Use Pythagorean to find the height h of the pyramid:

l² = h² + (7/2)²8² = h² + 3.5²h² = 8² - 3.5²h² = 51.75h = √51.75h ≈ 7.2 cm

hi can someone help me....can't get the answer.....you need to find a+b+c+d ​

Answers

Answer:

B) 306°

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Pentagons have a sum of interior angles of 540°

2. Triangles have a sum of interior angles of 180°

3. Knowing that triangle EFA is isosceles, we know that

   <FEA = *<FAE, so they are equal to:  (180° - <F) /2   =   (180° - 36°) / 2

   = 144° / 2  

   = 72°

4. m<A + m<B + m<C + m<D + m<E = 540°

   It is also given that **m<D = 90°,

   so therefore m<A + m<B + m<C + m<E = 450°

5. Now to find a+b+c+d   (m<a + m<b + m< c+ m<d),

       m<a = m<E - 72°    and    m<d = m<A - 72°

   This means that

   m<a + m<b + m< c+ m<d = (m<A - 72°) + m<B + m<C + (m<E - 72°) = 450°

6. Finally,

m<a + m<b + m< c+ m<d  =  450° - 72° - 72°  =  306°

A SQUARE RECTANGULAR PRISM (BASE IS A SQUARE) HAS A
VOLUME OF 38 CU. IN. THE HEIGHT IS 10 LESS THAN THE AREA
OF THE BASE. WHAT IS THE HEIGHT? NO UNITS.

Answers

The height of the prism [tex]\approx 2.9[/tex]

The whole volume of the prism is

[tex]\text{Volume} = \text{Area of base}\times \text{Height}[/tex]

Here, the volume is 38 cu. in.

From the question, the area and the height are related as follows;

[tex]\text{Height} = \text{Area} - 10 \implies \text{Height + 10} =\text{Area}[/tex]

Substituting this into the formula for the volume, we get

[tex]\text{Volume}=(\text{Height} +10)\times \text{Height}=38\\\\\text{Height}^2 + 10\times\text{Height}=38\\\\\text{Height}^2 + 10\times\text{Height}-38=0[/tex]

If the above quadratic equation is solved for the height, we get

[tex]\text{Height}\approx 2.9[/tex]

(We can't take the other solution since height has to be greater than zero)

Multiplying (1) by 3 and (2) by - 5 and adding will eliminate f

3h + 15f = 26.22 → (3)

- 10h - 15f = - 38.75 → (4)

Write two expressions for this situation, one representing the cost per customer and the other representing the average number of customers. Assume that x represents the number of $1 increases in the cost of the buffet.

Enter the correct answer in the box. Type the cost expression on the first line and the customer expression on the second line.

Answers

The expressions that can be used to derive the quadratic inequality for the

situation are;

Cost: 10 + xCustomers: 16 - 2·x

Reasons:

The parameters of the restaurant are;

The charge per buffet = $10

Number of customers that choose the buffet every hour = 16 customers

For an increase in $1 in the cost of the buffet, the customers decrease by 2 per each hour.

The required minimum revenue per hour = $130

Required:

The situation is to be modelled as a quadratic inequality.

Two expressions for the situation, one for the cost and one for the

customers.

Assumption: x = The number of $1 increases in the cost of the buffet

Solution:

The expressions are;

The cost of the buffet for an increase in x dollars is; Cost = 10 + x

The expression for the customers when the cost increases by x amount is; Customer = 16 - 2·x

Which gives;

Cost × Customers = Revenue

The inequality that models the situation is therefore;

(10 + x) × (16 - 2·x) ≥ 130

Which gives;

160 - 20·x + 16·x - 2·x² ≥ 130

160 - 4·x - 2·x² ≥ 130
