Find the stationary points of the function z = 3x(x+y)3 - x3 + 24x

z = 3x(x+y)3 - x3 + 24xDifferentiating partially with respect to x and with respect to y:∂z/∂x = 3(x+y)3 + 9x(x+y)2 - 3x2 + 24∂z/∂y = 9x(x+y)2<...

The rectangular hyperbola H has parametric equations: x = 4t, y = 4/t where t is not = 0. The points P and Q on this hyperbola have parameters t = 1/4 and t = 2 respectively. The line l passes through the origin O and is perpendicular to the line PQ.

This question asks us to find the cartesian equation of l.
First we must find the points P and Q. To do this we substitute t with 1/4 to find P and substitute t with 2 to find Q.Doing this we get the...

You have three keys in your pocket which you extract in a random way to unlock a lock. Assume that exactly one key opens the door when you pick it out of your pocket. Find the expectation value of the number of times you need to pick out a key to unlock.

Let X be the random variable for this question. P(X=x) = 1/3 for all x. When X=x, we have that it took x times for us to retrieve the correct key.Thus, we have the infinite sum 1/3 + 22/31/3 + 3*...
