Given that y = (e^x)/x, x > 0, find the range of values of x where y is a decreasing
function of x.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The interval for which y is a decreasing function of x is:

[tex](0, 1)[/tex]

Or as an inequality:

[tex]0<x<1[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the equation:

[tex]\displaystyle y=\frac{e^x}{x}\, ,x>0[/tex]

And we want to find the range of values x for which y is a decreasing function of x.

y is decreasing whenever y' is negative. Find y' using the Quotient Rule:

[tex]\displaystyle y'=\frac{(e^x)'(x)-e^x(x)'}{(x)^2}[/tex]

Differentiate:

[tex]\displaystyle y'=\frac{xe^x-e^x}{x^2}[/tex]

y is decreasing whenever y' is negative. Thus:

[tex]\displaystyle 0>\frac{xe^x-e^x}{x^2}[/tex]

Multiply both sides by . This is always positive so we do not need to change the sign:

[tex]xe^x-e^x<0[/tex]

Factor:

[tex]e^x(x-1)<0[/tex]

eˣ is always positive. So:

[tex]x-1<0[/tex]

Adding one to both sides produces:

[tex]x<1[/tex]

Therefore, y is a decreasing function of x when x is less than one (and greater than 0).

In interval notation:

[tex](0, 1)[/tex]

Or as an inequality:

[tex]0<x<1[/tex]

Which greatest digit should replace n so that the number 342n84 is divisible by 3?

Answers

Answer:

9

Step-by-step explanation:

If you want the number to be divisible by three make sure the sum of all the numbers are divisible by three. Add all the numbers you have to see what they make.

3+4+2+8+4=21

So we just need to find the greatest number we can add to that to have it remain divisible by three. A number divisible by three is 30, and we can add 9 to 21 to make 30. Of course, there are other numbers we could add, but nine is the largest one-digit number that would work. Other smaller numbers include 3 and 6.

3+4+2+8+4+9=30

Now we check to see if our number is divisible by three

342984÷3 = 114328

114328 is a whole number so we know it's divisible.

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the angles in a triangle add to 180

N = 180-118

Answers

Answer:

(x+4)² + (y-k) ² = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the circumference is expressed as;  

(x-h) ² + (y-k) ² = r²

(h,k) is the centre

r is the radius

Given that diameter = 8

radius = 8/2

radius = 4units

Given that h = -4 and k = 2

(x-h) ² + (y-k) ² = r²

(x-(-4)) ² + (y-2) ² = 4²

(x+4)² + (y-k) ² = 16

A baseball is thrown with one quarter rotation that takes 1.35 seconds. What is the angular velocity in units of radians per second?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]1.16\:\mathrm{rad/s}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Angular speed is given by [tex]\omega=\frac{\Delta \theta}{\Delta t}[/tex], where [tex]\Delta \theta[/tex] is angle change in radians and [tex]\Delta t[/tex] is elapsed time.

Since the baseball makes one fourth (one quarter) of a rotation in 1.35 seconds, it will take the baseball [tex]4\cdot 1.35=5.4[/tex] seconds to complete on rotation.

One rotation is 360 degrees or [tex]2\pi[/tex] radians. Therefore, the angular speed of the baseball is:

[tex]\omega =\frac{2\pi}{5.4}=1.16355283466\approx \boxed{1.16\:\mathrm{rad/s}}[/tex]

A particle is moving with acceleration a ( t ) = 18 t + 16 . Its position at time t = 0 is s ( 0 ) = 10 and its velocity at time t = 0 is v ( 0 ) = 16 . What is its position at time t = 8 ?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]s(8)=2186[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

A particle is moving with acceleration modeled by the function:

[tex]a(t)=18t+16[/tex]

We are given that its position s(t) at t = 0 is 10 and that its velocity v(t) at t = 0 is 16.

And we want to find its position at t = 8.

Velocity is the integral of the acceleration. Hence:

[tex]\displaystyle v(t)=\int a(t)\, dt=\int 18t+16\, dt[/tex]

Find the velocity. Remember the constant of integration!

[tex]v(t)=9t^2+16t+C[/tex]

Since v(t) is 16 when t = 0:

[tex](16)=9(0)^2+16(0)+C\Rightarrow C=16[/tex]

Hence, our velocity is given by:

[tex]v(t)=9t^2+16t+16[/tex]

Position is the integral of the velocity. Hence:

[tex]\displaystyle s(t)=\int v(t)\, dt=\int 9t^2+16t+16\, dt[/tex]

Integrate:

[tex]\displaystyle s(t)=3t^3+8t^2+16t+C[/tex]

s(t) is 10 when t = 10. Hence:

[tex]C=10[/tex]

So, our position function is:

[tex]s(t)=3t^3+8t^2+16t+10[/tex]

The position at t = 8 will be:

[tex]s(8)=3(8)^3+8(8)^2+16(8)+10=2186[/tex]

how do i solve this

Answers

Replace g for -2 and h for 5.

(2(-2) + 9(5) -5) - (6(-2) - 4(5) +2)

Taking this one at a time,
2(-2) = -4, and 9(5) = 45.
6(-2) = -12 and -4(5) = -20

(-4 + 45 - 5) - (- 12 - 20 +2)

Let’s distribute the negative symbol to the right side.

(-4 + 45 - 5) + (12 + 20 - 2)

Then, we solve!
(-4 + 40) + (12 + 18)

(36) + (30)

= 66!

Answer:

64

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay, here it goes:

Where there is a g you insert -2 and where there is an h you insert 5

(2(-2)+9(5)-5)-(6(-2)-4(5)+2)

If two numbers are side-by-side with no other sign between them, you multiply

(-4+45-5)-(6(-2)-4(5)+2)

(-4+45-5)-(-12-20+4)

There is a subtraction sign between these equations. That means you must distribute the negative sign to the equation on the right.

Remember:

Negative × Negative = PositiveNegative × Positive = NegativePositive × Positive = Positive

-4+45-5+12+20-4

Now just add them together. I recommend going left to right.

-4+45=41

41-5=36

36+12=48

48+20=68

68-4=64

Put the quadratic into vertex form and state the coordinates of the vertex. y= y= \,\,x^2-6x-3 x 2 −6x−3

Answers

Answer:

[tex]y = (x - 3)^2 - 12[/tex]

[tex](3,-12)[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]y = x^2 - 6x - 3[/tex]

Solving (a): In vertex form

The vertex form of an equation is:

[tex]y = a(x - h)^2 + k[/tex]

To do this, we make use of completing the square method.

We have:

[tex]y = x^2 - 6x - 3[/tex]

------------------------------------------------------------------

Take the coefficient of x (i.e. -6)

Divide by 2; -6/2 = -3

Square it: (-3)^2 = 9

Add and subtract the result to the equation

------------------------------------------------------------------

[tex]y = x^2 - 6x - 3[/tex]

[tex]y = x^2 - 6x + 9 - 9 - 3[/tex]

[tex]y = x^2 - 6x + 9 - 12[/tex]

Factorize [tex]x^2 - 6x + 9[/tex]

[tex]y = x^2 - 3x-3x + 9 - 12[/tex]

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

Factor out x - 3

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

Express as squares

[tex]y = (x - 3)^2 - 12[/tex]

Hence, the vertex form of [tex]y = x^2 - 6x - 3[/tex] is: [tex]y = (x - 3)^2 - 12[/tex]

Solving (b): State the coordinates of the vertex.

In [tex]y = a(x - h)^2 + k[/tex]; the vertex is: (h,k)

The vertex of [tex]y = (x - 3)^2 - 12[/tex] will be [tex](3,-12)[/tex]
