(a)
![f'(x) = \frac{d}{dx}[\frac{lnx}{x}]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=f%27%28x%29%20%3D%20%5Cfrac%7Bd%7D%7Bdx%7D%5B%5Cfrac%7Blnx%7D%7Bx%7D%5D)
Using the quotient rule:


For maximum, f'(x) = 0;


(b) <em>Deduce:
</em>

<em>
Soln:</em> Since x = e is the greatest value, then f(e) ≥ f(x) > f(0)


, since ln(e) is simply equal to 1
Now, since x > 0, then we don't have to worry about flipping the signs when multiplying by x.



Taking the exponential to both sides will cancel with the natural logarithmic function in the right hand side to produce:


, as required.

Step-by-step explanation:
-7y = -10x - 8
y = 10/7x + 8/7
Question-
6/15 divided by 1/7
Answer-
Find the reciprocal of the divisor
Reciprocal of 1/7: 7/1Now, multiply it with the dividend
So, 6/15 ÷ 1/7 = 6/15 × 7/1= (6 × 7)/(15 × 1) = 42/15After reducing the fraction, the answer is 14/5In mixed form: 2 4/5
Answer:
264 naira
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Amount earned per year = 2460
Rate of interest paid : 10k per naira earned
Tax paid by messenger per year :
100k = 1 naira
10k = (100/10) = 0.1 naira
Hence 0.1 naira is paid as tax on every naira earned
Total amount paid on 2640 Naira :
Amount paid per naira * total amount earned
(0.1 * 2640) = 264 naira
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:

Use the order of operations.
Note: PEMDAS or BODMAS stands for:
<u>PEMDAS</u>
- <u>Parentheses</u>
- <u>Exponents</u>
- <u>Multiply</u>
- <u>Divide</u>
- <u>Add</u>
- <u>Subtract</u>
<u>BODMAS</u>
- <u>Brackets</u>
- <u>Order</u>
- <u>Divide</u>
- <u>Add</u>
- <u>Subtract</u>
<u>First, do parentheses.</u>
3+6*(5+4)÷3-7
(5+4)=9

<u>Do multiply and divide.</u>
6*9=54
54/3=18
<u>Then, rewrite the problem down.</u>

<u>Add.</u>



- <u>Therefore, the correct answer is "C. 14".</u>
