Without using any calculus:
If x + y² = 5, then y² = 5 - x, so that
b = x y² = x (5 - x) = 5 x - x²
Complete the square to get
b = 25/4 - (x - 5/2)²
Then b gets a maximum value of 25/4 when x = 5/2.
Simple calculus method:
With b = 5 x - x², differentiate b with respect to x and set the derivative equal to 0 to solve for critical points:
db/dx = 5 - 2 x = 0 ==> x = 5/2
Take the second derivative to determine whether b is concave or convex:
d²b/dx² = -2
The second derivative is negative, which means b is concave with respect to x, and this indicates x = 5/2 is the site of a local maximum, which is b (5/2) = 25/4.
More complicated calculus method:
Lagrange multipliers. The Lagrangian is
L (x, y, λ) = x y² - λ (x + y² - 5)
where we assume λ ≠ 0.
Take its derivatives:
dL/dx = y² - λ
dL/dy = 2 x y - 2 λ y
dL/dλ = x + y² - 5
Set each derivative equal to 0 to find the critical points. The first equation tells us y² = λ, and the second equation tells us x = λ, so
x + y² - 5 = 2 λ - 5 = 0
Solving this gives λ = x = y² = 5/2, so that b has an extreme value of
b = (5/2) (5/2) = 25/4
Deciding whether this is a maximum or minimum comes down to computing the Hessian determinant at the critical value. The Hessian is
[tex]H(x,y)=\begin{bmatrix}\dfrac{\partial^2b}{\partial x^2}&\dfrac{\partial^2b}{\partial x\partial y}\\\\\dfrac{\partial^2b}{\partial y\partial x}&\dfrac{\partial^2b}{\partial y^2}\end{bmatrix}=\begin{bmatrix}0&2y\\2y&2x\end{bmatrix}[/tex]
with determinant |H (x, y)| = -4 y². At the critical point, the determinant is -10 < 0, which indicates a maximum value of 25/4.

Step-by-step explanation:
if a triangle is reflected, its area stays the same. the height is 3, and the base is 4. the formula for the area of a triangle is 1/2 (b)(h), so that is 1/2 (3)(4) which equals 6 square units.

g Benton Industries manufactures carpets and draperies in the Atlanta area. Employee absenteeism was becoming a problem, so HR conducted a study involving a random sample of employees. The number of absences during the past year was tabulated by marital status. What is the probability that an employee is not married and has between 1 and 5 absences in the past year
Answer:
The probability that an employee is not married and has between 1 and 5 absences in the past year is 0.204.
Step-by-step explanation:
The probability of an event, say E is the ratio of the favorable number of outcomes to the total number of outcomes.
[tex]P(E)=\frac{n (E)}{N}[/tex]
The number of absences during the past year tabulated by marital status is as follows:
Marital Status 0 Absences 1 - 5 Absences More than 5 Absences
Married 100 98 52
Not Married 77 102 71
Compute the probability that an employee is not married and has between 1 and 5 absences in the past year as follows:
[tex]P(\text{NM}\cap 1-5\ \text{Absences})=\frac{n(\text{NM}\cap 1-5\ \text{Absences})}{N}[/tex]
[tex]=\frac{102}{100+98+52+77+102+71}\\\\=\frac{102}{500}\\\\=0.204[/tex]
Thus, the probability that an employee is not married and has between 1 and 5 absences in the past year is 0.204.
There are 40 players on Bill's football team, 2/5 of the players walk to practice and 1/4 of the players ride with their parents. The remaining players ride the bus. How many students ride the bus?
Answer:
22 students.
Step-by-step explanation:
There are a total of 40 players on the football team. 2/5 walk, 1/4 ride with their parents, and the rest ride the bus. To solve, I'm going to be using fractions to find out how many students ride the bus.
1/4 of 40 or 40/4 is equal to 10.
So we know 10 players ride with their parents.
2/5 of 40 or 40/5 is equal to 8.
Cool, 8 students walk to practice.
Now the rest ride the bus. Let's use addition to find the total amount of players that dont use the bus and subtract it from the total amount of players.
10+8=18
40-18=22.
22 students/players ride the bus to football practice.

que es suma y resta de fracciones homogeneas
Answer:
responder
Step-by-step explanation:
Para sumar y restar fracciones, sus denominadores deben ser iguales. Por tanto, sumar o restar fracciones homogéneas es más fácil, dado que ya tienen el mismo denominador.
Answer:
Recuerda que cuando se suman fracciones homogéneas se hace lo mismo que cuando se suman objetos del mismo tipo. Por ejemplo, la suma tres décimos más dos décimos da como resultado cinco décimos: , por la misma razón que sumar tres vacas más dos vacas da como resultado cinco vacas.

What are the solutions to the quadratic equation below?
3x2 +16x + 21 = 0
Answer:
-3 and -7/3
Step-by-step explanation:
You could solve by factoring.
To do that, you find 2 numbers that multiply to 21, but add up to 16 when you multiply one of them by 3.
In this case, 3 and 7 would work, because 3*3 + 7 = 16, and 3 * 7 = 21.
Therefore, we can factor the equation to (3x+7)(x+3).
The solutions of the equations are -3 and -7/3.

SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ASAP!!!
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Recall that (a-b)(a+b) = a^2 - b^2
So,
(x-2i)(x+2i) = x^2 - (2i)^2 = x^2+4
(x+i-i)(x+1+i) = (x+1)^2 + 1 = x^2 + 2x + 2
(x-2+2i)(x-2-2i) = (x-2)^2 + 4 = x^2 - 4x + 8
