Felicia filled the bathroom sink with water is the amour more than 1 liter about 1 liter or less than 1 liter

1 answer:

6 0

There are a lot of different sinks. Different sizes and different shapes, but what is almost certainly true is that they all have volume bigger than 1 liter. To gain some perspective on the issue try imaging a cube with each edge being 10cm long (approximately 4 inches). Imagine how many of this you could put into a bathroom sink.
So your answer should be more that one liter.

Find the minimum and maximum of f(x,y,z)=x^2+y^2+z^2 subject to two constraints, x+2y+z=4 and x-y=8.

Alika [10]

The Lagrangian for this function and the given constraints is

$L(x,y,z,\lambda_1,\lambda_2)=x^2+y^2+z^2+\lambda_1(x+2y+z-4)+\lambda_2(x-y-8)$

which has partial derivatives (set equal to 0) satisfying

$\begin{cases}L_x=2x+\lambda_1+\lambda_2=0\\L_y=2y+2\lambda_1-\lambda_2=0\\L_z=2z+\lambda_1=0\\L_{\lambda_1}=x+2y+z-4=0\\L_{\lambda_2}=x-y-8=0\end{cases}$

This is a fairly standard linear system. Solving yields Lagrange multipliers of $\lambda_1=-\dfrac{32}{11}$ and $\lambda_2=-\dfrac{104}{11}$ , and at the same time we find only one critical point at $(x,y,z)=\left(\dfrac{68}{11},-\dfrac{20}{11},\dfrac{16}{11}\right)$ .

Check the Hessian for $f(x,y,z)$ , given by

$\mathbf H(x,y,z)=\begin{bmatrix}f_{xx}&f_{xy}&f_{xz}\\f_{yx}&f_{yy}&f_{yz}\\f_{zx}&f_{zy}&f_{zz}\end{bmatrix}=\begin{bmatrix}=\begin{bmatrix}2&0&0\\0&2&0\\0&0&2\end{bmatrix}$

$\mathbf H$ is positive definite, since $\mathbf v^\top\mathbf{Hv}>0$ for any vector $\mathbf v=\begin{bmatrix}x&y&z\end{bmatrix}^\top$ , which means $f(x,y,z)=x^2+y^2+z^2$ attains a minimum value of $\dfrac{480}{11}$ at $\left(\dfrac{68}{11},-\dfrac{20}{11},\dfrac{16}{11}\right)$ . There is no maximum over the given constraints.

tom takes a taxi to work. There is an initial fee of $2.20. Each mile is calculated at $1.50. If Tom's final cost for the taxi i

Fudgin [204]

Fee for distance = total fee - initial fee = 12.70-2.20 = $10.50

Now, for 1 mile = $1.50

for x miles = 10.50/1.50 = 7

So, tom travel 7 miles.

Put these numbers from least to greatest. I'm too lazy to do it. it's for trigonometry.
