From the equations which representsthe following Pair of lines 2x - 3y + 1 = 0 , 2x + 3y + 1 = 0

Answer»

SOLUTION :2x - 3y + 1 = 0 , 2x + 3y + 1 = 0
(2x - 3y +1) (2x + 3y +1) = 0
or, `(2x +1)^2 - 9y^2` = 0
`4x^2 + 1 + 4x - 9y^2 = 0`
`4x^2 - 9y^2 + 4x + 1 = 0`
which REPRESENTSA PAIR of lines.

Evaluate log_(27)sqrt(54)-log_(27)sqrt(6).

Answer»

Solution :If you can enter base 27 into your calculator, enter the entire expression to get the answer `0.bar(3)=(1)/(3)`. Otherwise, you can use the change-of-base formula to substitute `(log54)/(log27)" for "log_(27)sqrt(54)and(logsqrt(6))/(log27)" for"log_(27)sqrt(6)`. If you your logarithms well, you use properties to see that
`log_(27)sqrt(54)-log_(27)sqrt(6)=log_(27)sqrt((54)/(6))`
`=log_(27^(3))`
`=(1)/(3)`
The GRAPHS of all exponential functions `y=b^(x)` have roughly the same shape and pass through point (0,1). If `bgt1`, the graph increases as x increases and APPROACHES the x-axis as an asymp- tote as x decreases. The amount of curvature BECOMES greater as the value of b is made greater. If `0ltblt1`, the graph increases as x decreases and approaches the x-axis as an asmptote as x increases. The amount of curvature becomes greater as the value of b is made closer to zero.

The graphs of all logarithmic functions `y=log_(b)x` have roughly the same shape and pass through point (1,0). If `bgt1`, the graph increases as x increases and approaches the y-axis as an asymptote as x approaches zero. The amount of curvature becomes greater as the value of b is made greater. If `0ltblt1`, the graph decreases as x increases as x increases and approaches the y-axis as an asymptote as x approaches zero. The amount of curvature becomes greater as the value of b is made closer to zero.

Two numbers serve as special bases of exponentil functions The number 10 is convenient as a base because integer power of ten determine place values : for instance, `10^(2)=100 and 10^(-3)=0.001`. The inverse of `10^(x)` is `log_(10)x`. By convention, the base is not written when it is 10, so the inverse of `10^(x)` is simply written as log 10. The other special base is the number `e~~2.718281828 . . . . ` This is a nontermination and nonrepeating decimal. The inverse of `e^(x)` is `log_(e)x`, which is further abbreviated ln x, the NATURAL logarithm of x. On the TI - 84 graphing calculator, the command log will evalute the logarithm with respect to any base by entering the value whose log is being sought followed by the base. Log base e (ln) can also entered the value whose log is being sought followed by the base. Log base e (ln) can also be entered directly.

Let E_(1)E_(2) and F_(1)F_(2) be the chords of S passing through the point P_(@) (1, 1) and parallel to the X-axis and the Y-axis, respectively. Let G_(1)G_(2) be the chord of S passing through P_(@) and having slope -1. Let the tangents to S at E_(1)and E_(2) met at F_(3), and the tangents to S at G_(1) and G_(2) meet at G_(3). Then , the points E_(3), F_(3) and G_(3) lie on the curve Let S be the circle in the XY-plane defined by the equation x^(2)+y^(2)=4

Answer»

x + y = 4
`(x-4)^(2)+(y-4)^(2)=16`
`(x-4)+(y-4)=4`
xy = 4

Solution :
Equation of tangent at `E_(1)(-sqrt3,1)` is
`-sqrt3x +y=4 and "at" E_(2)(sqrt3,1)` is
`sqrt3x+y=4`
Intersection point of tangent at`E_(1) and E_(2) " is " (0,4)`1.
`THEREFORE` Coordinates of `E_(3)` is (0, 4)
Similarly equation of tangent at`F_(1)(1, -sqrt3) and F_(2)(1,sqrt3)` are `x-sqrt3y=4 and x+sqrt3y=4`, respectively and intersection point is (4, 0), i.e., `F_(3)(4,0)` and equation of tangent at `G_(1)(0,2) and G_(2)(2,0)` are 2y =4 and 2X = 4, respectively and intersection point is (2, 2)i.e., `G_(3) (2,2)`.
Point `E_(3) (0, 4) , F_(3)(4,0) and G_(3)(2, 2)` satisfies the line x + y = 4.

For kind of cake requires 200 g of flour and 25 g of fat, another kind of cake requires 100 g of flour and 50 g of fat. Find the maximum number of cakes which can be made from 5 kg of flour and 1 kg of fat, assuming that there is no shortage of the other ingredients used in making the cakes. Make it an LLP and solve it fraphically.

Answer»


Solution :Let the number of cakes of the FIRST and second type be x and y respectively. Then we have to MAXIMISE `z=+y` subject to the constraints
`200x+100y,le5000implies2x+yle50""...(i)`
`25x+50yle100impliesx+2yle40""...(ii)`
and `x ge0,yge0.`

First we deaw the line `2x+y=50.`
For this, we plot the points `A(25,0),B(0,50) and C(10,30).` Draw the line ACB.
The region below this line represents `2x+y le50.`
Now, we draw the line `x+2y=40.`
For this, we plot the points `D(40,0),E(0.20)and F(20,10).` Draw the line DFE.
The region below this line represents `x+2y le40.`
The feasible regin CONTAINS the points `A(25,0),F(20,10) and E(0,20).`
Value of z at `A(25,0)=25+0=25.`
Value of z at `F(20,10)=20+10=30.`
Valus of z at `E(0,20)=0+20=20.`
For maximum value of z, we have x=20 and y=10. ltbr gt Maximum number of cakes REQUIRED for first and second type are 20 and 10 respectively.
