Answer: x = $25.89

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a two step problem.  First we need to determine the number of gallons the car uses to drive the 250 miles:

250/28 ≈ 8.93 gallons

Then we just multiply the number of gallons by the price:

8.93 x 2.90 = $25.90

Alternate solution:  Use a proportion.  Since 1 gallon costs $2.90 and produces 28 miles, we can set up the following proportion:

2.90/28 = x/250

Cross-multiply and solve:

28x = 725

x = $25.89 (There is a one cent difference due to a rounding error in the first solution.  This solution avoids that error.)

Find the second derivative of f(x)=sec(x).
marysya [2.9K]

The derivative of sec x is equal to sec x tan x. The derivative of the first derivative can be determined using the rule of products. The derivative is equal to sec x sec^2 x + tan x * sec x tan x. The simplified answer is sec^3 x + sec^2 x tan x equal to sec^2 x ( sec x + tanx )
