When Scott woke up this morning, the temperature was 2°F. The temperature fell 5° by noon. Scott used this number line to model

the temperature drop.
What error did Scott make?

A. Scott should have started by moving from 0 to –5.

B. Scott should have started by moving from 0 to –2.

C. Scott started correctly by moving from 0 to 2, but then he should have moved 5 units to the left.

D. Scott started correctly by moving from 0 to 2, but then he should have moved 5 units to the right.

The answer is C because "dropped" means minus so it is asking: 2-5 which should be -3 not -5.

Parallelogram JKLM has vertices J(-1, 6), K(0, 9), L(6, −3), and M(3, −3). What is the coordinates of the image if the parallelo

Digiron [165]

Answer: $(\dfrac13,-2),\ (0,-3),\ (-2,1),\ (-1,1) .$

Step-by-step explanation:

Transformation rule for dilation:

$(x,y)\to(kx,ky)$ , where k = scale factor

Given : Scale factor = $-\dfrac13$

Parallelogram JKLM has vertices J(-1, 6), K(0, 9), L(6, −3), and M(3, −3)

Vertices after dilation:

$(-1,6)\to(-1\times\dfrac{-1}{3},6\times\dfrac{-1}{3})=(\dfrac13,-2)$

$(0,9)\times(0\times-\dfrac13,9\times-\dfrac13)=(0,-3)$

$(6,-3)\to(6\times-\dfrac13,\ -3\times-\dfrac13)=(-2,1)$

$(3,-3)\to (3\times-\dfrac13,\ -3\times-\dfrac13)=(-1,1)$

Hence, the coordinates of the image if the parallelogram = $(\dfrac13,-2),\ (0,-3),\ (-2,1),\ (-1,1) .$

Ind the next term for the given sequence.52, 45, 38, 31,

o-na [289]

The answer is 24. To get from one term to the next, you have to find the difference. To get from 52 to 45, you minus 7. It is the same with the other terms. So 31 - 7 = 24

Implicit Differentiation

The derivative of a constant is equal to 0

Basic Power Rule:

f(x) = cxⁿ
f’(x) = c·nxⁿ⁻¹

Product Rule: $\frac{d}{dx} [f(x)g(x)]=f'(x)g(x) + g'(x)f(x)$

Chain Rule: $\frac{d}{dx}[f(g(x))] =f'(g(x)) \cdot g'(x)$

Quotient Rule: $\frac{d}{dx} [\frac{f(x)}{g(x)} ]=\frac{g(x)f'(x)-g'(x)f(x)}{g^2(x)}$

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

-xy - 2y = -4

Rate of change of the tangent line at point (-1, 4)

<u>Step 2: Differentiate Pt. 1</u>

<em>Find 1st Derivative</em>

Implicit Differentiation [Product Rule/Basic Power Rule]: $-y - xy' - 2y' = 0$
[Algebra] Isolate <em>y'</em> terms: $-xy' - 2y' = y$
[Algebra] Factor <em>y'</em>: $y'(-x - 2) = y$
[Algebra] Isolate <em>y'</em>: $y' = \frac{y}{-x-2}$
[Algebra] Rewrite: $y' = \frac{-y}{x+2}$

<u>Step 3: Find </u><em><u>y</u></em>

Define equation: $-xy - 2y = -4$
Factor <em>y</em>: $y(-x - 2) = -4$
Isolate <em>y</em>: $y = \frac{-4}{-x-2}$
Simplify: $y = \frac{4}{x+2}$

<u>Step 4: Rewrite 1st Derivative</u>

[Algebra] Substitute in <em>y</em>: $y' = \frac{-\frac{4}{x+2} }{x+2}$
[Algebra] Simplify: $y' = \frac{-4}{(x+2)^2}$

<u>Step 5: Differentiate Pt. 2</u>

<em>Find 2nd Derivative</em>

Differentiate [Quotient Rule/Basic Power Rule]: $y'' = \frac{0(x+2)^2 - 8 \cdot 2(x + 2) \cdot 1}{[(x + 2)^2]^2}$
[Derivative] Simplify: $y'' = \frac{8}{(x+2)^3}$

<u>Step 6: Find Slope at Given Point</u>

[Algebra] Substitute in <em>x</em>: $y''(-1) = \frac{8}{(-1+2)^3}$
[Algebra] Evaluate: $y''(-1) =8$
