Find the derivative of f(x) = 6/x at x = -2. (2 points)

Answers

Answer 1

Using the definition of the derivative,

[tex]\displaystyle f'(-2) = \lim_{x\to-2}\frac{f(x) - f(-2)}{x - (-2)}[/tex]

[tex]\displaystyle f'(-2) = \lim_{x\to-2}\frac{\dfrac6x + 3}{x + 2}[/tex]

[tex]\displaystyle f'(-2) = \lim_{x\to-2}\frac{\dfrac{6+3x}x}{x + 2}[/tex]

[tex]\displaystyle f'(-2) = \lim_{x\to-2}\frac{6+3x}{x(x + 2)}[/tex]

[tex]\displaystyle f'(-2) = \lim_{x\to-2}\frac{3(x+2)}{x(x + 2)}[/tex]

[tex]\displaystyle f'(-2) = \lim_{x\to-2}\frac{3}{x} = \boxed{-\dfrac32}[/tex]

x + y = −3
y = 2x + 2

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x + y = −3

y = 2x + 2

Substitute the y value of the second equation into the top equation

x + 2x + 2 = - 3

3x + 2 = - 3

3x = -3 -2

3x = - 5

x = -5/3

x + y = - 3

-5/3 + y = - 3

y = -3 + 5/3

y = -1 1/3

Final Answer: 82.2

formula used: a² + b² = c²

a = 66

b = 49

c = x

Solution:

66² + 49² = x²  (note: 66² = 66 × 66 = 4,356 and 49² = 49 × 49 = 2,401)

4,356 + 2,401 = x²

[tex]\sqrt{6,757}[/tex] = [tex]\sqrt{x^2}[/tex]

82.201 = x

rounded to the nearest tenth: 82.2

find the 80th term following arithmetic sequence 8,14,20,26

Answers

Answer:

The 80th term is 482

Step-by-step explanation:

8,14,20,26

This is an arithmetic sequence

Find the common difference by taking the second term and subtracting the first term

14-8 = 6

We are adding 6 each time

The formula for an arithmetic sequence is

an =a1+d(n-1)  where a1 is the first term, d is the common difference and n is the term we are looking for

a80 = 8+6(80-1)

       = 8 + 6*79

     = 8+474

    = 482

The 80th term is 482

Answers

Answer:

x =10

y = 10 sqrt(3)/ 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is a right triangle, we can use trig functions

sin theta = opp / hyp

sin 60 = 5 sqrt(3) / x

x sin 60 = 5 sqrt(3)

x = 5 sqrt(3)/sin 60

x = 5 sqrt(3) / sqrt(3)/2

x = 5*2

x =10

tan theta = opp /adj

tan 60 = x/y

ytan 60 = 10

y = x/ tan 60

y = 10/ sqrt(3)

y = 10/ sqrt(3)  * sqrt(3)/ sqrt(3)

y = 10 sqrt(3)/ 3

[tex](5 + 4 \sqrt{7} ){x}^{2} + (4 - 2 \sqrt{7} ) x- 1 = 0[/tex]

Simplify both radicals.

[tex](5 + \sqrt{112) {x}^{2} } + (4 - \sqrt{28} )x - 1 = 0[/tex]

Apply Quadratic Formula

First. find the discramnint.

[tex](4 - \sqrt{28} ) {}^{2} - 4(5 + \sqrt{112} )( - 1) = 64[/tex]

Now find the divisor 2a.

[tex]2(5 + \sqrt{112} ) = 10 + 8 \sqrt{7} [/tex]

Then,take the square root of the discrimant.

[tex] \sqrt{64} = 8[/tex]

Finally, add -b.

[tex] - (4 + 2 \sqrt{7} )[/tex]

So our possible root is

[tex] - (4 + 2 \sqrt{7} ) + \frac{8}{10 + 8 \sqrt{7} } [/tex]

Which simplified gives us

[tex] \frac{ 4 + 2 \sqrt{7} }{10 + 8 \sqrt{7} } [/tex]

Rationalize the denominator.

[tex] \frac{4 + 2 \sqrt{7} }{10 + 8 \sqrt{7} } \times \frac{10 - 8 \sqrt{7} }{10 - 8 \sqrt{7} } = \frac{ - 72 - 12 \sqrt{7} }{ - 348} [/tex]

Please help me solve this guys pleasee im struggling

Answers

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

y = x^2 +2x - 8

Factor

y = ( x+4)(x-2)

The zeros are

x+4 = 0  x-2 = 0    

x= -4    x= 2

(-4,0)  (2,0)

The axis of symmetry is 1/2 way between the zeros

(-4+2)/2 = -2/2 = -1

x = -1

The x coordinate of the vertex is at the axis of symmetry

The y value is found by substituting x=-1

y = (-1+4) (-1-2)= 3*-3 = -9

Vertex ( -1,-9)

The domain is all real numbers

The range is from -9 up

y≥ -9  since it opens upward

A contractor construct to build a house in 30 days. He employed 10 men to build the house. After 20 days. They completed only 1 /3 of the total work. How many more men will be required to finish the remaining work within due time?

Answers

Answer:

30

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we can say that because the men do 1/3 of the work in 20 days,

for 10 men:

20 days = 1/3 total work

Because we need the house built in 30 days, and 20 days have already passed, we only have 30-20=10 days left. Furthermore, 20/2=10, so in our equation of 20 days = 1/3 total work, we can divide both sides by 2 to get

10 days = 1/6 total work

The amount of work we need to get done in 10 days is (all of it) - (1/3 of total work) = 1 - 1/3 = 2/3 = 4/6

Since 10 men can do 1/6 of the work in 10 days, 10*4 =40 men can do 1/6 * 4 = 4/6 of the work in 10 days. This is the amount of work that needs to get done. Therefore, the contractor needs 40 (total workers) - 10 (current workers) = 30 new workers to finish the remaining work in due time

Irrational

Step-by-step explanation:

The constant [tex]\pi[/tex], or "pi", is an irrational mathematic constant that corresponds to a non-terminating (never-ending decimal). Because there are an infinite number of digits in pi, pi cannot be expressed as a fraction and therefore is irrational.

Multiplying or adding a rational number does not make pi rational, and therefore the desired answer is (D) Irrational.

Answer:

x = 67

Step-by-step explanation:

∠ C = ∠ FGD ( corresponding angles )

Consecutive angles in a parallelogram sum to 180° , then

∠ B + ∠  C = 180 , substitute values

73 + x + 40 = 180

x + 113 = 180 ( subtract 113 from both sides )

x = 67

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

<B = <GFE                       The parallelograms are similar.

<GFD + <GFE = 180         Consecutive angles in a parallogram = 180

<GFD = x + 40                 Given

FGE = 73                          Step One

x + 40 +   73 = 180           Substitution

x + 113 = 180                     Subtract 113 from both sides

x = 67
