Answer:

  310

Step-by-step explanation:

The maximum possible number is obtained when each family owns one appliance only. That total is ...

  60 + 85 +70 +95 = 310

The maximum possible number of families is 310.

Determine the area (in units2) of the region between the two curves by integrating over the x-axis. y = x2 − 24 and y = 1
astra-53 [7]

Answer:

The area of the region between the two curves by integration over the x-axis is 9.9 square units.

Step-by-step explanation:

This case represents a definite integral, in which lower and upper limits are needed, which corresponds to the points where both intersect each other. That is:

x^{2} - 24 = 1

Given that resulting expression is a second order polynomial of the form x^{2} - a^{2}, there are two real and distinct solutions. Roots of the expression are:

x_{1} = -5 and x_{2} = 5.

Now, it is also required to determine which part of the interval (x_{1}, x_{2}) is equal to a number greater than zero (positive). That is:

x^{2} - 24 > 0

x^{2} > 24

x < -4.899 and x > 4.899.

Therefore, exists two sub-intervals: [-5, -4.899] and \left[4.899,5\right]. Besides, x^{2} - 24 > y = 1 in each sub-interval. The definite integral of the region between the two curves over the x-axis is:

A = \int\limits^{-4.899}_{-5} [{1 - (x^{2}-24)]} \, dx + \int\limits^{4.899}_{-4.899} \, dx + \int\limits^{5}_{4.899} [{1 - (x^{2}-24)]} \, dx

A = \int\limits^{-4.899}_{-5} {25-x^{2}} \, dx + \int\limits^{4.899}_{-4.899} \, dx + \int\limits^{5}_{4.899} {25-x^{2}} \, dx

A = 25\cdot x \right \left|\limits_{-5}^{-4.899} -\frac{1}{3}\cdot x^{3}\left|\limits_{-5}^{-4.899} + x\left|\limits_{-4.899}^{4.899} + 25\cdot x \right \left|\limits_{4.899}^{5} -\frac{1}{3}\cdot x^{3}\left|\limits_{4.899}^{5}

A = 2.525 -2.474+9.798 + 2.525 - 2.474

A = 9.9\,units^{2}

The area of the region between the two curves by integration over the x-axis is 9.9 square units.

The rate of transmission in a telegraph cable is observed to be proportional to x2ln(1/x) where x is the ratio of the radius of
sergij07 [2.7K]

Answer:

The value of x that gives the maximum transmission is 1/√e ≅0.607

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets call f the rate function f. Note that f(x) = k * x^2ln(1/x), where k is a positive constant (this is because f is proportional to the other expression). In order to compute the maximum of f in (0,1), we derivate f, using the product rule.

f'(x) = k*((x^2)'*ln(1/x) + x^2*(ln(1/x)')) = k*(2x\,ln(1/x)+x^2*(\frac{1}{1/x}*(-\frac{1}{x^2})))\\= k * (2x \, ln(1/x)-x)

We need to equalize f' to 0

  • k*(2x ln(1/x) - x) = 0 -------- We send k dividing to the other side
  • 2x ln(1/x) - x = 0 -------- Now we take the x and move it to the other side
  • 2x ln(1/x) = x -- Now, we send 2x dividing (note that x>0, so we can divide)
  • ln(1/x) = x/2x = 1/2 -------  we send the natural logarithm as exp
  • 1/x = e^(1/2)
  • x = 1/e^(1/2) = 1/√e ≅ 0.607

Thus, the value of x that gives the maximum transmission is 1/√e.

Katarina [22]
<span>George will have enough money in 3 years. This is because at 5 percent interest per year, in one year he will have $23,100. In two years, he will have $24,155. In 3 years he will have $25,362.75 which will put him slightly over his goal of a 20% down payment.</span>
