Find the difference quotient for f(x) = x2 + 4.

Answers

Answer 1

I am trying to simplify a difference quotient with the form

f(x+h)−f(h)/h

if f(x)=2/x2 I have attempted to cancel out the denominator of the numerator by the least common denominator method. I know that I can solve this using implicit differentiation, but am trying to use the difference quotient to get the partial derivative

Here is my work so far:

f(x+h)−f(x)(h)

=f(2/(x+h)2)−f(2/x2)h

=(2/(x+h)2)−(2/x2)h

here I multiply by the LCD

=(2(x2)−2(x+h)2)/(x2(x+h)2)h

Here I expand out the top and cancel out 2x2

=(2x2−(2x2+4xh+2h2))/(x2(x+h)2)h

=−(4xh+2h2)/(x2(x+h)2))h

Here I think I should multiply by 1/h to get rid of the h on the bottom

I end up with:

=4xh+2h2hx2(x+h)2

factor out an h

=−4x+2hx2(x+h)2

Create an equation in slope-intercept form for the line that passes through (3, 6) and (6, 10).

Answers

Answer: y = 4/3x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the slope form of y2 - y1/ x2 - x1 and substitute in the values from the coordinates. In this case, it would be 10-6/6-3, which gives you 4/3. Thus, that would be the slope(m). Then take a pair of coordinates (x,y) and substitute in the equation y = mx + b.

If you take the first coordinate (3,6): 6 = 3(4/3) + b

                                                                6 = 4 + b

                                                                    b = 2

If you take the second coordinate (6, 10) : 10 = 6(4/3) + b

                                                                         10 = 8 + b

                                                                              b = 2

Then, substitute m and b into the equation (y = mx + b) to get your answer.

Answer:  " y =  -10 . "

___________________

Step-by-step explanation:

___________________

The question:

Find the  value of  "y" when "x" equals 17.

Given the equation:

 - x + y = -27 ;

___________________

We plug in the given value: "17" ; for "x" ; and solve for "y" :

- 17 + y = -27 ;

_____________________

↔ y + (-17) = -27 ;

Rewrite as:

   y − 17  = -27 ;   {since:  "adding a negative value" is the same

                                           as "subtracting a positive value."}.

_____________________

Now, we add "17" to each side of the equation;

to isolate "y" on one side of the equation; and to solve for "y" :

  y − 17 + 17  = -27 + 17 ;

to get:

  y  =  - 10 .

Answer: Slope = c / a + b

Concept:

Here, we need to know the idea of a slope.

In mathematics, the slope or gradient of a line is a number that describes both the direction and the steepness of the line.

Slope = Rise / Run = Δy / Δx = (y₂ - y₁) / (x₂ - x₁)

Solve:

STEP ONE: Identify the points

A (0, 0)

C (a + b, c)

STEP TWO: Apply the formula

Slope = (y₂ - y₁) / (x₂ - x₁)

Slope = (c - 0) / (a + b - 0)

Slope = c / a + b

there are nickels, dimes, and quarters in a piggy bank. altogether, the coins are worth $3.65. the number of dimes is three times greater than the number of nickels, and the number of quarters is one greater than double the number of nickels. how many quarters, nickels, and dimes are there?

Answers

This question is solved using a system of equations, and doing this, we get that: There are 9 quarters, 4 nickels and 12 dimes.

I am going to say that:

x is the number of nickels.

y is the number of dimes.

z is the number of quarters.

In all, they are worth $3.65.

A nickel is worth $0.05, a dime is worth $0.1 and a quarter is worth $0.25, so:

[tex]0.05x + 0.1y + 0.25z = 3.65[/tex]

Dimes: 3 times greater than nickels:

This means that:

[tex]y = 3x[/tex]

Quarters: One greater than double the number of nickels:

This means that:

[tex]z = 2x + 1[/tex]

Value of x:

We have y and z as function of x, so we can replace into the equation and find the value of x, so:

[tex]0.05x + 0.1y + 0.25z = 3.65[/tex]

[tex]0.05x + 0.1(3x) + 0.25(2x+1) = 3.65[/tex]

[tex]0.05x + 0.3x + 0.5x + 0.25 = 3.65[/tex]

[tex]0.85x = 3.4[/tex]

[tex]x = \frac{3.4}{0.85}[/tex]

[tex]x = 4[/tex]

y and z:

[tex]y = 3x = 3(4) = 12[/tex]

[tex]z = 2x + 1 = 2(4) + 1 = 9[/tex]

There are 9 quarters, 4 nickels and 12 dimes.

According to the rules of Major League Baseball, the infield must be 30 feet by 30 feet in a diamond shape with perpendicular (90°) corners. Answer the following questions regarding the shape of the infield.​

Answers

Answer:

No Major League ballparks are exactly alike, but certain aspects of the field of play must be uniform across baseball.

The infield must be a square that is 90 feet on each side, and the outfield is the area between the two foul lines formed by extending two sides of said square (though the dirt portion of the field that runs well past the 90-foot basepaths in all Major League parks is also commonly referred to as the infield). The field must be constructed so that the bases are the same level as home plate.

The rulebook states that parks constructed by professional teams after June 1, 1958, must have a minimum distance of 325 feet between home plate and the nearest fence, stand or other obstruction on the right- and left-field foul lines, and 400 feet between home plate and the nearest fence, stand or other obstruction in center field. However, some clubs have been permitted to construct parks after that date with dimensions shorter than those specified.

The pitcher's plate must be a 24-inch by 6-inch slab of whitened rubber that is 10 inches above the level of home plate and 60 feet, 6 inches away from the back point of home plate. It is placed 18 inches behind the center of the mound -- which is erected within an 18-foot diameter circle -- and surrounded by a level area that is 5 feet by 34 inches. The slope of the pitcher's mound begins 6 inches in front of the pitcher's plate and must gradually decrease by 1 inch every foot for 6 feet in the direction of home plate.

Home plate is a 17-inch square of whitened rubber with two of the corners removed so that one edge is 17 inches long, two adjacent sides are 8 1/2 inches each and the remaining two sides are 12 inches each and set at an angle to make a point. The 17-inch side faces the pitcher's plate, and the two 12-inch edges coincide with the first- and third-base lines. The back tip of home plate must be 127 feet, 3 and 3/8 inches away from second base.

The other bases must be 15-inch squares that are between 3 and 5 inches thick, covered by white canvas or rubber and filled with soft material.

Luis reads the temperature of a solution in a lab experiment. The temperature of the solution is 5.6º F. After 6 hours, he reads the temperature of the solution again. The temperature of the solution is now −1.2°F .

Luis plots the points on the number line to determine the temperature change between these two readings.

What is the temperature change?

ANSWER:____° F

Answers

The temperature change after 6 hours is 6.8°F

Initial temperature = 5.6°F

Initial temperature = 5.6°FFinal temperature after 6 hours = -1.2°F

The temperature change can be calculated as the difference in the value of final and initial temperature.

Temperature change = (final temperature - initial temperature)

Temperature change = (5.6 - (-1.2))°F

Temperature change = (5.6 + 1.2)°F = 6.8°F

Hence, temperature change after 6 hours is 6.8°F

Given three consecutive odd integers whose sum is 369, find the smallest of the three integers.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

369 = x + (x+2) + (x+4)

369 = 3x + 6

363 = 3x

121 = x

now that we know that x = 121, we can solve the equation by plugging in the variable

369 = x + (x+2) + (x+4)

369 = 121 + 123 + 125

369 = 369

The smallest three integers are 121,123 and 125.

Let, the smallest odd integers be n

Then according to the given condition,

After 5 years :

Seena's age = x + 5

Her mother's age = 4x + 5
