Answer:

16

Step-by-step explanation:

|x - 16| less than/equal to 4

Means x can be between;

-4+16 and 4+16, i.e [12,20]

|y - 6| less than/equal to 2

Means x can be between,

-2+6 and 2+6, i.e [4,8]

x - y would be greatest when x is greatest and y is least:

20 - 4 = 16

Find the solution of the differential equation that satisfies the given initial condition. (du)/(dt) = (2t + sec^2 t)/(2u), u(0)
Delicious77 [7]
Ah okay so in differential equations you usually want the top variable isolated. To do this, multiply by dt and 2u and you get
2udu = 2t + { \sec(t) }^{2} dt
Now just integrate both sides. The integral of 2u with respect to u is u². The integral of (2t + sec²(t) with respect to t is t² + ∫sec²(t)dt. The last part is just tan(x) because d/dt(tan(t)) is sec²(t) so just integrating gets us back. Now we have
{u}^{2}   + c =  {t}^{2}  +  \tan(t)  + k
Where c and k are arbitrary constants. Subtracting c from k and you get
{u}^{2}  =  {t}^{2}  +  \tan(t)  + b
Where b is another constant. To find b, just plug in u(0) = -1 where u is -1 and t is 0. This becomes
1 =  \tan(0)  + b
tan(0) is 0 so b = 1. Take the plus or minus square root on both sides and you finally get
u =  \: { {t}^{2} }  +  \tan(t)  + 1
But Brainly didn't let me do but juat remember there is a plus or minus square root on the left.

S_A_V [24]
There's a bunch of them like if you simplify you could get 3/4.I'll give you some more.

Examples:14/16 21/24 28/32 and 35/40.

My brain was getting tired to think...but there's more.

Hope this helps :D
