Answer: 17 1/6 or  17-18

(u guess which is right if its an integer ^^)

Step-by-step explanation:

25 3/4 ÷ 1 1/2

First change the mixed fractions to improper fractions.

<u>25 3/4 </u>= <u>103/4</u>

<u>1 1/2 </u>= <u>3/2</u>

Now divide: 103/4 ÷ 3/2

103/4 * 2/3 (multiply by flipping the second fraction)

= 206/12

Now divide: 206 ÷ 12

= 17 2/12 (<u>simplified:</u> 17 1/6)

<u><em>The answer will be 17 1/6 </em></u> (OR 17-18)

Find the derivative of the following functions: a. f(x) = (x^3 + 5)^1/4 - 15e^x^3 b. f(x) = (x - 3)^2 (x - 5)/(x - 4)^2(x^2 + 3)
Darya [45]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given function is

(a)F(x)=\left ( x^{3}+5\right )^{0.25}-15e^{x^{3}}

F^{'}\left ( x\right )=0.25\left ( x^{3}+5\right )^{-0.75}\frac{\mathrm{d} x^{3}}{\mathrm{d} x}-15e^{x^{3}}\frac{\mathrm{d} x^{3}}{\mathrm{d} x}

F^{'}\left ( x\right )=0.25\left ( x^{3}+5\right )^{-0.75}\times 3x^{2}-15e^{x^{3}}\times \left ( 3x^{2}\right )

(b)F(x)=\frac{\left ( x-3\right )^2\left ( x-5\right )}{\left ( x-4\right )^2\left ( x^{2}+3\right )^5}

F^{'}\left ( x\right )=\frac{\left [ 2\left ( x-3\right )\right \left ( x-5\right )+\left ( x-3\right )^2]\left [ \left ( x-4\right )^2\left ( x^2+3\right )^5\right ]-\left [ 2\left ( x-4\right )^{3}\left ( x^2+3\right )^5+5\left ( x^2+3\right )^4\left ( 2x\right )\left ( x-4\right )^2\right ]\left [ \left ( x-3\right )^2\left ( x-5\right )\right ]}{\left [\left ( x-4\right )^2\left ( x^2+3\right )^5\right ]^2}

Raymond was riding a zip-cable from the top of a viewing post. The cable is 65 yards long. The viewing post is 52 yards high and
grin007 [14]
In order to figure out the horizontal distance Raymond travels using his zip cable, we may simply apply Pythagoras theorem which is, for a right triangle:
hypotenuse² = base² + height²
base = √(hypotenuse² - height²)
base = √(65² - 52²)
base =  39 yards
Raymond will travel a horizontal distance of 39 yards.
