The rate a computer works is 1/time. Working together, you add the rates.
Let new computer be x, old computer be y.
x = y - 7

\frac{1}{x} + \frac{1}{y} = \frac{1}{13} \\  \\ \frac{1}{y-7}+\frac{1}{y} = \frac{1}{13} \\  \\ \frac{2y-7}{y(y-7)} = \frac{1}{13} \\  \\ y(y-7) = 13(2y-7) \\  \\ y^2-33y+91 = 0 \\  \\ y = 29.96 \\  \\ x = y-7 = 29.96-7 = 22.96
Rounded to nearest tenth gives:
x = 23 hours

If thewronskian w of f and g is 3e4t,and if f(t) = e2t,find g(t).
ehidna [41]
W(f(x),g(x))=\begin{vmatrix}f(x)&g(x)\\f'(x)&g'(x)\end{vmatrix}=f(x)g'(x)-g(x)f'(x)

We have f(t)=e^{2t}\implies f'(t)=2e^{2t}, so

W(f(t),g(t))=e^{2t}g'(t)-2e^{2t}g(t)=3e^{4t}
\implies e^{-2t}g'(t)-2e^{-2t}g(t)=3
\implies\dfrac{\mathrm d}{\mathrm dt}[e^{-2t}g(t)]=3
\implies e^{-2t}g(t)=\displaystyle\int3\,\mathrm dt
\implies e^{-2t}g(t)=3t+C
\implies g(t)=3te^{2t}+Ce^{2t}

where C is any arbitrary constant.

triangle ABC is reflected about the line Y equals negative X to give triangle ABC with vertices A (-1, 1), B (-2, -1), C (-1,0).
Amiraneli [1.4K]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  • A'(-1, 1)
  • B'(1, 2)
  • C'(0, 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Reflection across the line y = -x is accomplished by the transformation ...

  (x, y) ⇒ (-y, -x)

Then the images of the given points are ...

  A(-1, 1) ⇒ A'(-1, 1) . . . . this point is on the line of reflection, so doesn't move

  B(-2, -1) ⇒ B'(1, 2)

  C(-1, 0) ⇒ C'(0, 1)
