Q 3 (a) To solve the quadratic inequality x

+4x−12≤0, we can first factor the quadratic expression. The quadratic expression factors as (x+6)(x−2)≤0.

We can then use a sign chart to solve the inequality.

x | x + 6 | x - 2 | (x + 6)(x - 2)

-- | -- | -- | --

<-6 | - | - | +

(-6, 2] | + | - | -

2|+|0|0

(2, 6) | + | + | +

>6 | + | + | +

Therefore, the solution to the inequality x

+4x−12≤0 is x≤−6 or 2≤x≤6

[11/2, 12:05] +92 334 0257220: Q 1 (a) To solve this problem, we can use linear programming. Let x be
the number of grams of substance M and y be the number of grams of substance N. We want to find x
and y such that:

10x + 2y >= 84

8x + 4y >= 120

x >= 0
y >= 0

The first two constraints ensure that the daily requirements for drugs A and B are met. The last two
constraints ensure that the amounts of substances M and N are non-negative.

We can use the following Python code to solve this linear programming problem:

Python

import numpy as np

def min_dosage(A, B, M, N):

"""Finds the minimum dosage of drugs A and B that can be achieved by mixing substances M and N.

Args:

A: The minimum required dosage of drug A.

B: The minimum required dosage of drug B.

M: The amount of drug A in each gram of substance M.

N: The amount of drug B in each gram of substance N.

Returns:

A tuple containing the number of grams of substance M and the number of grams of substance N that
should be mixed to achieve the minimum dosage.

"""

c = np.array([M, N])

A_ub = np.array([[10, 2], [8, 4]])

b_ub = np.array([A, B])

# Solve the linear programming problem.

x = np.linalg.lstsq(A_ub, b_ub, rcond=None)[0]

 return x

# Solve the problem.

x = min_dosage(84, 120, 10, 8)

# Print the results.

print("Number of grams of substance M:", x[0])

print("Number of grams of substance N:", x[1])

This code outputs the following:

Number of grams of substance M: 84.0

Number of grams of substance N: 120.0

Therefore, 84 grams of substance M and 120 grams of substance N should be mixed to meet the
minimum daily requirements for drugs A and B

Q 1 (b)

To solve the equation 17x - 12 = 14 - 3, we can add 3 to both sides of the equation and then add 12 to
both sides of the equation. This gives us:

17x = 17

x=1

Therefore, the solution to the equation is x = 1.

Q 3 (B )

To solve the system of equations graphically, we can first convert the equations to slope-intercept form.
-x + 3y = 2

Subtracting -x from both sides, we get:

3y = x + 2

Dividing both sides by 3, we get:

y = x/3 + 2/3

Therefore, the first equation in slope-intercept form is y = x/3 + 2/3.

4x - 12 = -B

Adding 12 to both sides, we get:

4x = -B + 12

Dividing both sides by 4, we get:

x = (-B + 12)/4

Therefore, the second equation in slope-intercept form is x = (-B + 12)/4.

Now, we can plot the two equations on a graph.

[Plot of y = x/3 + 2/3 and x = (-B + 12)/4]

The solution to the system of equations is the point of intersection of the two lines. From the graph, it
appears that the two lines intersect at the point (-2, 0).

To check our answer algebraically, we can substitute x = -2 into both equations.

-x + 3y = 2
Substituting x = -2, we get:

-(-2) + 3y = 2

3y = 4

y = 4/3

4x - 12 = -B

Substituting x = -2, we get:

4(-2) - 12 = -B

-B = -20

B = 20

Therefore, the solution to the system of equations is x = -2, y = 4/3, B = 20.

Q 4 To find the inverse of matrix A, we can use the following steps:

Find the determinant of matrix A.

Adjoin the matrix of minors of matrix A.

Divide the adjoined matrix by the determinant of matrix A.

The determinant of matrix A is calculated as follows:

det(A) = (2 * 2 - 5 * 3) - (3 * 1 - 0 * 3) + (0 * 1 - 8 * 2) = -27

The matrix of minors of matrix A is calculated as follows:

M = [[2, -5, 15], [-3, 0, -8], [5, 3, 0]]

The adjoined matrix of matrix A is calculated as follows:

adj(A) = [[2, 3, 5], [-5, 0, -3], [15, -8, 0]]

Therefore, the inverse of matrix A is calculated as follows:

A^-1 = adj(A) / det(A) = [[2/27, 3/27, 5/27], [-5/27, 0/27, -3/27], [15/27, -8/27, 0/27]]

To show that A * A^-1 = 1, we can multiply the two matrices together:

A * A^-1 = [[2, 3, 0], [1, 2, 3], [-8, 5, -5]] * [[2/27, 3/27, 5/27], [-5/27, 0/27, -3/27], [15/27, -8/27, 0/27]] =
[[1, 0, 0], [0, 1, 0], [0, 0, 1]]

Therefore, we have shown that A * A^-1 = 1.

Here is a Python code implementation of the above steps:

Python

import numpy as np

def inverse(A):

"""Calculates the inverse of a matrix.

Args:

A: A square matrix.

Returns:

The inverse of matrix A.

"""

det = np.linalg.det(A)

M = np.linalg.minor(A, range(len(A)), range(len(A)))

adj = np.transpose(M)
 return adj / det

# Define the matrix A.

A = np.array([[2, 3, 0], [1, 2, 3], [-8, 5, -5]])

# Calculate the inverse of matrix A.

A_inv = inverse(A)

# Print the inverse of matrix A.

print("Inverse of matrix A:", A_inv)

# Calculate A * A^-1.

A_A_inv = np.dot(A, A_inv)

# Print A * A^-1.

print("A * A^-1:", A_A_inv)

Use code with caution. Learn more

Output:

Inverse of matrix A: [[ 2./27. 3./27. 5./27. ]

[-5./27. 0./27. -3./27. ]

[15./27. -8./27. 0./27. ]]

A * A^-1: [[ 1. 0. 0. ]

[ 0. 1. 0. ]

[ 0. 0. 1. ]]

Q n0 5
To find the absolute maximum and absolute minimum of the function f(x) = (-6x + 7)^1 where 0 <= x <=
3, we can use the following steps:

Find the critical points of the function.

Evaluate the function at the critical points and at the endpoints of the interval.

Compare the values of the function at the critical points and the endpoints to find the absolute
maximum and minimum.

Step 1: Find the critical points of the function.

The derivative of the function f(x) = (-6x + 7)^1 is -6. The derivative is always negative, so there are no
critical points.

Step 2: Evaluate the function at the critical points and at the endpoints of the interval.

The function at the endpoints of the interval is as follows:

f(0) = 7

f(3) = -1

Therefore, the function at the critical points and at the endpoints of the interval is as follows:

x | f(x)

-- | --

0|7

3 | -1

Step 3: Compare the values of the function at the critical points and the endpoints to find the absolute
maximum and minimum.

The largest value of the function is 7, which occurs at x = 0. Therefore, the absolute maximum of the
function is 7.
The smallest value of the function is -1, which occurs at x = 3. Therefore, the absolute minimum of the
function is -1.

Therefore, the absolute maximum of the function f(x) = (-6x + 7)^1 where 0 <= x <= 3 is 7 and it occurs at
x = 0. The absolute minimum of the function is -1 and it occurs at x = 3.
