Answer:
8 is the correct answer because coefficient lies before Exponent. Exponent is variable
So 8 is the coefficient.
Answer:
The objective function in terms of one number, x is
S(x) = 4x + (12/x)
The values of x and y that minimum the sum are √3 and 4√3 respectively.
Step-by-step explanation:
Two positive numbers, x and y
x × y = 12
xy = 12
S(x,y) = 4x + y
We plan to minimize the sum subject to the constraint (xy = 12)
We can make y the subject of formula in the constraint equation
y = (12/x)
Substituting into the objective function,
S(x,y) = 4x + y
S(x) = 4x + (12/x)
We can then find the minimum.
At minimum point, (dS/dx) = 0 and (d²S/dx²) > 0
(dS/dx) = 4 - (12/x²) = 0
4 - (12/x²) = 0
(12/x²) = 4
4x² = 12
x = √3
y = 12/√3 = 4√3
To just check if this point is truly a minimum
(d²S/dx²) = (24/x³) = (8/√3) > 0 (minimum point)
It should be 25xy that is the correct answer i did this today
Answer:
a) X ~ 
b) μ = 100/3
c) 
d) A battery is expected to last 100/3 months (33 months and 10 days approximately).
e) For seven batteries, i would expect them to last 700/3 months (approximately 19 years, 5 months and 10 days).
Step-by-step explanation:
a) The life of a battery is usually modeled with an exponential distribution X ~
b) The mean of X is μ = 1/0.03 = 100/3
c) The standard deviation is 
d) The expected value of the bateery life is equal to its mean, hence it is 100/3 months.
e) The expected value of 7 (independent) batteries is the sum of the expected values of each one, hence it is 7*100/3 = 700/3 months.
1/4 of 2,500 i hope you get it right
