Riley bought a 7 1/2 pounds of clay for the students in her pottery class. She then divided the clay into 4 equal pieces for her students to use for making vases and pots. How much did each piece weigh?

The maximum value of the product of two number whose difference is 14 is 49.

The maximum or minimum value of a function is the highest or lowest value of that function.

Let the numbers be x and y

Their product f(x,y) = xy

Since their difference is 14, x - y = 14

So, x = 14 - y

Substituting x into f(x,y), we have

f(x,y) = xy

= (14 - y)y

= 14y - y²

To find the maximum or minimum value of f(x,y) we differentiate it with respect to y and equate to zero.

So, f(x,y) = f(y) = 14y - y²

df(y)/dy = d(14y - y²)/dy

df(y)/dy = d(14y)/dy - dy²/dy

df(y)/dy = 14 - 2y

Equating to zero, we have

df(y)/dy = 0

14 - 2y = 0

14 = 2y

y = 14/2

y = 7

To determine if this gives a maximum or minimum for f(y) = f(x,y), we differentiate f'(y) again

So, df'(y)/dy = d(14 - 2y)/dy

= d14/dy + d(-2y)/dy

= 0 - 2

= -2 < 0.

Since f"(y) = -2 < 0, then y = 7 gives a maximum for f(x,y)

So, since y = 7,

x = 14 - y = 14 - 7 = 7

So, f(x,y) is maximum at x = 7 and y = 7

So, f(7,7) = 7 × 7

= 49

So, the maximum value of the product of two number whose difference is 14 is 49.

The vectors are linearly independent if and only if k ≠ -11

In mathematics, the definition of a vector is a quantity that is made up of both magnitude and also have direction. This type of quantity is not one that is considered based on its position. A very good example of such a quantity with magnitude and direction is acceleration.

Vectors are used to represent items such as position, velocity, physical quantities and others in mathematics and in physics.

In this question,

We have 2v - 3w

We have to multiply 2 by the values of v and multiply 3 with the values of w

this would produce

[2,6,8]-[6,6,12]

subtract w from v

= [-4, 0, -4]

We u as -1, 0 and 10+k

It is not possible to -1 = 10 + k

Perimeter and area are two important and basic mathematical subjects. They help quantify the physical space and also provide a more advanced foundation of mathematics in algebra, trigonometry, and calculus. Perimeter is a measure of the distance around a shape, and area indicates how much area the shape covers.

The perimeter of a 2D shape is the distance around the shape. You can imagine wrapping a string around a triangle. The length of this cord is around the triangle. Or, if you're traveling outside the park, take a route that goes around the edge of the park.

Based on the graph which models the function at x = -2 (see attachment), the corresponding y-value is y = 3.

In Mathematics, a function can be defined as a mathematical expression which can be used to define and show the relationship that exist between two or more variables in a data set.

In this scenario, there are several values (points) on the given linear graph expressed as a coordinate (x, y). Hence, the x-values on the x-axis is directly proportional to the y-values on the x-axis.

By critically observing the graph which models the function at x = -2 (see attachment), we can logically deduce that the corresponding y-value is three (3).

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

You have a total of 6 outcomes (1,2,3,4,5,6).  That is your numerator.  Out of those numbers, you only want 2 of them (4 or 5), so the fractions would be 2/6 or 1/3 which can also be written 1:3

The value of A has been illustrated, computed and proven based in the triangle given.

It should be noted that that a triangle is a shape that has three sides and the value of the addition of all the angles are equal to 180°.

Based on the information that's given, it should be noted that the value of angle A, angle B, and angle C will be equal to 180°.

In this case, the following can be deduced:

A = 5x

B = 90°

C = x + 10°

Therefore, A + B + C = 180° (sum of angles in a triangle)

5x + 90 + x + 10 = 180°

6x = 180° - 90° - 10°

6x = 80°

x = 80/6

x = 13 1/3

Therefore, the value of A will be:

= 5x

= 5 × 13 1/3

= 66 2/3

Therefore, A is 66 2/3.

The distance between the house and the office is 12 miles.

Therefore, we can find what it would take to reach the office by dividing the distance by the average speed:

Time taken = distance/average speed

Answer:

Can i have the graph? THis doesn't make sense

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph of (f+g)(x) is on the coordinate plane, a straight line with a positive slope crosses the x-axis at (negative 1, 0) and crosses the y-axis at (0, 5).

The graph of a parabolic equation is a curved U-shape graph from where the domain, the range, x-intercept(s), and the y-intercept(s) can be determined.

Given that:

f(x) = -x² + 3x + 5

g(x) = x² + 2x

To find (f + g)(x), we have:

(f + g)(x) = (-x² + 3x + 5)+(x² + 2x)

(f + g)(x) = -x² + 3x + 5 +x² + 2x

(f + g)(x) = 3x + 2x + 5

(f + g)(x) = 5x + 5

Use the Slope-intercept form: We are to find the graph of y = 5x + 5

y = 5x + 5

Therefore, we can conclude that on the coordinate plane, a straight line with a positive slope crosses the x-axis at (negative 1, 0) and crosses the y-axis at (0, 5)

Divide by 2:

[tex]x^{2} =100[/tex]

Take square root:

The Kernel Function K (x,x') written as a function of the dot product x *x' is  K (x, x') = Z². See the working below.

A kernel function is a way for taking input data and transforming it into the needed form of processing data.

The term "kernel" refers to a collection of mathematical functions used in Support Vector Machine to provide a window to alter data.

Given x = [x₁, x₂][tex]^{T}[/tex]

β(x) = [x²₁, √2 x₁ x₂, x²₂]

K (x₁, x') = β(x)[tex]^{T}[/tex] β(x')[tex]^{T}[/tex]

Hence, X' =  [x₁, x₂][tex]^{T}[/tex]

→ β(x') = [x'²₁, √2 x'₁ x'₂, x'²₂]

K (x, x') = [x²₁, √2 x₁ x₂, x²₂][tex]^{T}[/tex]  [x'²₁, √2 x'₁ x'₂, x'²₂]

K (x, x') = [x²₁, [x'²₁ + 2x₁ x₂ x'₁ x'₂ + x²₂ x'²₂

Because Z = x · x' (dot product of x·x')

= x₁ x'₁ + x₂x₂'

Expressing K (x,x') as a function of Z, we have

K (x₁, x') =  x²₁ x'²₁ + 2x₁x₂ x'₁ x'² + x²₂ x'²₂

Simplified, we have

(x₁ x₁¹ + x₂x¹₂)² =  Z²; and

[(a+b)² = a²+2ab+b₂] = z x₁x₁¹ + x₂x₁²
