Applying implicit differentiation, it is found that dy/dt when y=π/4 is of:

a-) -√2 / 2.

<h3>What is implicit differentiation?</h3>

Implicit differentiation is when we find the derivative of a function relative to a variable that is not in the definition of the function.

In this problem, the function is:

xcos(y) = 2.

The derivative is relative to t, applying the product rule, as follows:

\cos{y}\frac{dx}{dt} - x\sin{y}\frac{dy}{dt} = 0

\frac{dy}{dt} = \frac{\cos{y}\frac{dx}{dt}}{x\sin{y}}

Since dx/dt=−2, we have that:

\frac{dy}{dt} = -2\frac{\cos{y}}{x\sin{y}}

When y = π/4, x is given by:

xcos(y) = 2.

x = \frac{2}{\cos{\frac{\pi}{4}}} = \frac{2}{\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}} = \frac{4}{\sqrt{2}} \times \frac{\sqrt{2}}{\sqrt{2}} = 2\sqrt{2}

Hence:

\frac{dy}{dt} = -2\frac{\cos{y}}{x\sin{y}}

\frac{dy}{dt} = -\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\cot{y}

Since cot(pi/4) = 1, we have that:

\frac{dy}{dt} = -\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} \times \frac{\sqrt{2}}{\sqrt{2}} = -\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}

Which means that option a is correct.

How did you compute sums of dollar amounts that were not whole numbers? For example, how did you compute the sum of$5.89 and$1.4
nignag [31]

Answer:

$7.34

Step-by-step explanation:

To compute sum of dollars that are not whole numbers. Using the sum of$5.89 and$1.45 as an illustration :

$5.89 + $1.45

Taking the whole numbers first:

$5 + $1 = $6

Take the sum of the decimals :

$0.89 + $0.45 = $1.34

Sum initial whole + whole of sum of decimal

$6 + $1 = $7

Remaining decimal : $1.34 - $1 = $0.34

$7 + $0.34 = $7.34
