Answer:

Here,

a= 12

b = 6

Then,

a+b

= 12 + 6

= 18

.°. 18 is the solution

Answer:

$\boxed{ \bold{ \boxed{ \sf{18}}}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

If the values of variables of algebraic expressions are given, the value of the term or expression can easily obtained by replacing the variables with numbers.

Given, a = 12 and b = 6

$\sf{a + b}$

plug the values

⇒ $\sf{12 + 6}$

Add the numbers

⇒ $\sf{18}$

Hope I helped!

Consider the following equation. f(x, y) = e−(x − a)2 − (y − b)2 (a) Find the critical points. (x, y) = a,b (b) Find a and b suc

murzikaleks [220]

$f(x,y)=e^{-(x-a)^2-(y-b)^2}\implies\begin{cases}f_x=-2(x-a)e^{-(x-a)^2-(y-b)^2}\\f_y=-2(y-b)e^{-(x-a)^2-(y-b)^2}\end{cases}$

Critical points occur where $f_x=f_y=0$ . The exponential factor is always positive, so we have

$\begin{cases}-2(x-a)=0\\-2(y-b)=0\end{cases}\implies(x,y)=\boxed{(a,b)}$

b. As the previous answer established, the critical point occurs at (-3, 8) if $\boxed{a=-3}$ and $\boxed{b=8}$ .

c. Check the determinant of the Hessian matrix of $f(x,y)$ :

$\mathbf H(x,y)=\begin{bmatrix}f_{xx}&f_{xy}\\f_{yx}&f_{yy}\end{bmatrix}$

The second-order derivatives are

$f_{xx}=(-2+4(x-a)^2)e^{-(x-a)^2-(y-b)^2}$

$f_{xy}=4(x-a)(y-b)e^{-(x-a)^2-(y-b)^2}$

$f_{yx}=4(x-a)(y-b)e^{-(x-a)^2-(y-b)^2}$

$f_{yy}=(-2+4(y-b)^2)e^{-(x-a)^2-(y-b)^2}$

so that the determinant of the Hessian is

$\det\mathbf H(x,y)=f_{xx}f_{yy}-{f_{xy}}^2=\left((4(x-a)^2-2)(4(y-b)^2-2)-16(x-a)^2(y-b)^2\right)e^{-2(x-a)^2-2(y-b)^2}$

$\det\mathbf H(x,y)=(16(x-a)^2(y-b)^2-8(x-a)^2-8(y-b)^2)+4)e^{-2(x-a)^2-2(y-b)^2}$

The sign of the determinant is unchanged by the exponential term so we can ignore it. For $a=x=-3$ and $b=y=8$ , the remaining factor in the determinant has a value of 4, which is positive. At this point we also have

$f_{xx}(-3,8;a=-3,b=8)=-2$

which is negative, and this indicates that (-3, 8) is a local maximum.

Is it easier to subtract when the numbers are written above each other?

aksik [14]

I would say yes, it is easier to subtract numbers when they are above and below each other because that ways you can easily borrow from the places in front of the number and rewrite without problems. It also helps keep the math more organized so that your work does not confuse you.

Hope this helps c:
