Find three positive numbers whose sum is 100 and whose product is a maximum.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The numbers are;

x = 100/3,  y = 100/3,  z = 100/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data in the question;

so let the numbers be; x , y and z

so

x + y + z = 100

now

G(x,y,z) = x + y + z - 100

F(x,y,z) = xyz

Fx = yz, Gx = 1

Fy = xz, Gy = 1

Fz = xy, Gz = 1

Fx = λ × Gx

yz = λ

Similarly, xz = lambda

And xy = lambda

From above clearly, x = y = z

x + y + z = 100

so

3x = 100

x = 100/3

since, x = y = z therefore, each number is equal to 100/3

x = 100/3,  y = 100/3,  z = 100/3

Answer 2

We want to find 3 positive numbers such that their sum is 100 and the product is maximum.

The maximum product is P = 37,025.93

Let's say that our 3 numbers are:

A, B, and C.

We must have:

A + B + C = 100

The product of these 3 numbers is:

P = A*B*C

For the restriction, we can write:

A = 100 - B - C

Now we can replace that in the product equation to get:

P = (100 - B - C)*B*C

P = 100*B*C - C*B^2 - B*C^2

Now we want to maximize this, to do it, we need to find the zeros of the derivate of the function. This is a two-variable function, but the dependence on C is exactly the same as the dependence on B, so we can find the zero of deriving with respect to one of these only.

dP/dB = 100*C - 2*C*B - C^2 = 0

             C*(100 - 2*B - C) = 0

One solution is C = 0, the other is:

C = 100 - 2*B

And from the first restroctopm:

A + B + C = 100

we can get:

C = 100 - A - B

Then:

100 - A - B = 100 - 2*B

Then we get A = B

And if we derive the equation for C instead of B, we will get similar results that will lead to:

A = B = C.

This is what maximizes the product, then we have:

A + B + C = 3*A = 100

A = 100/3 = 33.33

P = (33.33)^3 = 37,025.93

This is the maximum product.

Each airline passenger and his or her luggage must be checked to determine whether he or she is carrying weapons on to the airplane. Suppose that at O’hare International Airport, an average of 10 passengers per minute arrive (interarrival times are exponential). To check passengers for weapons, the airport must have a checkpoint consisting of a metal detector and baggage X-ray machine. Whenever a checkpoint is in operation, two employees are required. A checkpoint can check an average of 12 passengers per minute (the time to check a passenger is exponential). Under the assumption that the airport has only one checkpoint, answer the following questions:

a. What is the probability that a passenger will have to wait before being checked for weapons?
b. On the average, how many passengers are waiting in line to enter the checkpoint?
c. On the average, how long will a passenger spend at the checkpoint?

Answers

Answer:

a

[tex]P_k = 0.83[/tex]

b

 [tex]N_{\mu} \approx 4 \ passengers[/tex]

c

[tex]T_{\lambda} = 0.5 \ minutes[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

The average number of passengers that arrive per minute is [tex]\lambda = 10[/tex]

The average number of check that can be carried out in one minute is [tex]\mu= 12[/tex]

Generally the probability that a passenger will have to wait before being checked for weapons is mathematically represented as

        [tex]P_k = \frac{\lambda }{ \mu }[/tex]

=>    [tex]P_k = \frac{10 }{ 12}[/tex]

=>    [tex]P_k = 0.83[/tex]

Generally the number of passengers are waiting in line to enter the checkpoint is mathematically represented as

     [tex]N_{\mu} = \frac{\lambda^2}{\mu (\mu -\lambda) }[/tex]

=>  [tex]N_{\mu} = \frac{10^2}{12 (12 -10) }[/tex]

=>  [tex]N_{\mu} \approx 4 \ passengers[/tex]

Generally the average time a passenger spend at the checkpoint is mathematically represented as

      [tex]T_{\lambda} = \frac{ \frac{\lambda}{(\mu - \lambda)} }{ \lambda}[/tex]

=>   [tex]T_{\lambda} = \frac{ \frac{ 10}{(12 - 10)} }{10}[/tex]

=>   [tex]T_{\lambda} = 0.5 \ minutes[/tex]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer: A.  (-1, -3)

This point is on the boundary line, but the boundary line is a dashed line. So this point is not part of the solution. The dashed line is like an electric fence you can get closer to, but you cannot touch it. It's due to the fact there isn't any "or equal to" as part of the inequality sign. So that's why (-1,-3) is not in the solution set. If the boundary line was solid, then (-1,-3) would be a solution.

Points like (5,1), (20,-5) and (0,0) are solutions because they are in the pink shaded region, and they aren't on the boundary.

The hiking path to the top of a mountain makes, at the steepest place, an angle of 20° with the
horizontal, and it maintains this constant slope for 500 meters, as illustrated below. Which of the
following is the closest approximation to the change in elevation, in meters, over this 500-meter
section?
500 meters
20
A 20
B) 170
180
D 250

Answers

We are given:

a right angled triangle with the angle of elevation = 20 degrees

Hypotenuse of the Triangle = 500 m

Finding the change in Elevation:

We will use trigonometry in the given triangle to find the length of the perpendicular of the triangle

Using trigonometry, we found that the perpendicular = 500 * Sin 20 degrees

Perpendicular = 500 * 0.342           [sin(20 degrees) = 0.342]

Perpendicular = 171 m

The closest value to 171m in the given options is 170m

Therefore, 170m (option B) is correct

After simplifying the following expression, the coefficient of the m^2 term will be ______.

The solution is ______

Answers

Answers:

After simplifying the following expression, the coefficient of the m^2 term will be  13  

The solution is  13m^2 + 6mn^2 - 5nm^2  

====================================================

Explanation:

Highlight all the terms that have m^2 in them and nothing else (so that means no variables of n or n^2)

You should highlight 3m^2, 16m^2 and -6m^2 as the three terms.

The coefficients 3, 16 and -6 combine to 3+16-6 = 13

Meaning that 3m^2+16m^2-6m^2 = 13m^2

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

There are no other like terms that pair up.

The 6mn^2 and -5nm^2 are different because the exponent 2 is over a different letter each time. Put another way: mn^2 is not the same as nm^2

So we cannot combine 6mn^2-5nm^2. We leave it as is.

Overall, the entire expression simplifies to 13m^2 + 6mn^2 - 5nm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

A polling agency is investigating the voter support for a ballot measure in an upcoming city election. The agency will select a random sample of 400 voters from one region, Region A, of the city. Assume that the population proportion of voters who would support the ballot measure in Region A is 0.46.

Required:
What is the probability that the proportion of voters in the sample of Region A who support the ballot measure is greater than 0.50?

Answers

Answer:

0.0544

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information;

The population proportion of the voters that would support the ballot measures in region A = 0.46

The random sample n = 400 voters

The required probability can therefore be computed as follows:

[tex]P[p_1>0.5] = P \bigg [ \dfrac{p_1-P_1}{\sqrt{\dfrac{P_1(1-P_1)}{n_1}}}>\dfrac{0.5-0.46}{\sqrt{\dfrac{0.46(1-0.46)}{400}}} \bigg][/tex]

[tex]P[p_1>0.5] = P \bigg [ Z>\dfrac{0.04}{\sqrt{\dfrac{0.46(0.54)}{400}}} \bigg][/tex]

[tex]P[p_1>0.5] = P \bigg [ Z>\dfrac{0.04}{\sqrt{6.21\times 10^{-4}}} \bigg][/tex]

[tex]P[p_1>0.5] = P \bigg [ Z>1.605 \bigg][/tex]

[tex]P[p_1>0.5] = 1- P [ Z<1.605 ][/tex]

Using the Excel Function =NORMDIST(1.605)

[tex]P[p_1>0.5] = 1- 0.9456[/tex]

[tex]P[p_1>0.5] =0.0544[/tex]

Therefore, the required probability = 0.0544
