Answer: The correct option is (B) (-2, 13).

Step-by-step explanation: We are given to find the solution of the following system of equations :

$12q+3r=15~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(i)\\\\-4q-4r=-44~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(ii)$

Multiplying equation (ii) by 3, we have

$3(-4q-4r)=-44\times3\\\\\Rightarrow -12q-12r=-132~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(iii)$

Adding equations (i) and (iii), we get

$(12q+3r)+(-12q-12r)=15+(-132)\\\\\Rightarrow 3r-12r=15-132\\\\\Rightarrow -9r=-117\\\\\Rightarrow r=\dfrac{-117}{-9}\\\\\Rightarrow r=13.$

From equation (ii), we get

$-4q-4\times13=-44\\\\\Rightarrow -4q-52=-44\\\\\Rightarrow -4q=-44+52\\\\\Rightarrow -4q=8\\\\\Rightarrow q=\dfrac{8}{-4}\\\\\Rightarrow q=-2.$

Thus, the required solution is (q, r) = (-2, 13).

Option (B) is CORRECT.

Finding Derivatives Implicity In Exercise,Find dy/dx implicity.<br> x2e - x + 2y2 - xy = 0

Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

the question is incomplete, the complete question is

"Finding Derivatives Implicity In Exercise,Find dy/dx implicity . $x^{2}e^{-x}+2y^{2}-xy$ "

Answer : $\frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{y-(2-x)xe^{-x}}{(4y-x)}$

Step-by-step explanation:

From the expression $x^{2}e^{-x}+2y^{2}-xy$ " y is define as an implicit function of x, hence we differentiate each term of the equation with respect to x.

we arrive at

$\frac{d}{dx}(x^{2}e^{-x )+\frac{d}{dx} (2y^{2})-\frac{d}{dx}xy=0\\$

for the expression $\frac{d}{dx}(x^{2}e^{-x})$ we differentiate using the product rule, also since y^2 is a function of y which itself is a function of x, we have

$(2xe^{-x}-x^{2}e^{-x})+4y\frac{dy}{dx}-x\frac{dy}{dx} -y=0\\\\(2-x)xe^{-x}+(4y-x)\frac{dy}{dx}-y=0 \\$ .

if we make dy/dx subject of formula we arrive at

$(4y-x)\frac{dy}{dx}=y-(2-x)xe^{-x}\\\frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{y-(2-x)xe^{-x}}{(4y-x)}$

The two polygons above are similar. The scale factor of the smaller polygon to the larger polygon is 3. The area of the smaller

Softa [21]

You would think it was 3 * 12 = 36. Not so. All polygons have to be broken down into some figure that will give 2 dimensions that are at right angles to each other. That would mean that
d1 * d2 = Area for the small polygon
3d1 * 3d2 = area of the larger polygon

What that means is that the area of the larger one is 9 times the smaller one.
Area large = 12 * 9 = 108 square units. <<<<< answer.

If you find this hard to be leave try it with a square.
Suppose you have a square (the small one) that is 3 cm by 3 cm
The small one has an area of 3*3 cm^2 = 9 cm

Now you have another square that is 3 times larger. That means that each side is 3*3 = 9
So s = 9
Area = s^2
Area = 9^2 = 81 cm^2
81 is 9 times larger than 9 just as you would think.
