\frac{1}{2}x=\frac{2}{3}x-8 \\ \\
\frac{1}{2}x-\frac{2}{3}x=-8 \\ \\
\frac{3}{6}x-\frac{4}{6}x=-8 \\ \\
-\frac{1}{6}x=-8 \\ \\
x=48

Can someone explain this differentiation question to me? I can differentiate but then I'm not sure what I am doing
weeeeeb [17]

note that gradient = \frac{dy}{dx} at x = a

calculate \frac{dy}{dx} for each pair of functions and compare gradient

(a)

\frac{dy}{dx} = 2x and \frac{dy}{dx} = - 1

at x = 4 : gradient = 8 and - 1 : 8 > - 1

(b)

\frac{dy}{dx} = 2x + 3 and \frac{dy}{dx} = - 2

at x = 2 : gradient = 7 and - 2 and 7 > - 2

(c)

\frac{dy}{dx} = 4x + 13 and \frac{dy}{dx} = 2

at x = - 7 : gradient = - 15 and 2 and 2 > - 15

(d)

\frac{dy}{dx} = 6x - 5 and \frac{dy}{dx} = 2x - 2

at x = - 1 : gradient = - 11 and - 4 and - 4 > - 11

(e)

y = √x = x^{\frac{1}{2} }

\frac{dy}{dx} = 1/(2√x) and \frac{dy}{dx} = 2

at x = 9 : gradient = \frac{1}{6} and 2 and 2 > \frac{1}{6}

Kryger [21]

Answer:

$21,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve the following fraction problem and choose the correct alternative: Jaime buys a property for $ 84,000 and after one year sells it earning 1/4 of the purchase price. How much was the profit? *

The amount of profit is calculated as

1/4 of the purchase price

Purchase price = $84,000

= 1/4 of $84,000

= 1/4 × $84,000

= $21,000

Therefore, the amount of the profit = $21,000

e-lub [12.9K]

The value of k will be 3 if the function is transformed by compression factor of 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The horizontal stretch or compression for a function f(x) is given by  g = f(bx) where b is a constant. If b> 0 then the graph of function is compressed.

As it is given in the question that he function is transformed by a compression factor of 3.

Given function

f(x) = 7^x+1\\To\ transform\\g = f(bx)\\g = 7^{3x}+1

The value of k will be 3 if the function is transformed by compression factor of 3
