Compute the derivative of <em>y</em> = (<em>x</em>² + <em>x</em> - 2)² using the chain rule:
d<em>y</em>/d<em>x</em> = 2 (<em>x</em>² + <em>x</em> - 2) d/d<em>x</em> [<em>x</em>² + <em>x</em> - 2]
d<em>y</em>/d<em>x</em> = 2 (<em>x</em>² + <em>x</em> - 2) (2<em>x</em> + 1)
Evaluate the derivative at <em>x</em> = -1 :
d<em>y</em>/d<em>x</em> (-1) = 2 ((-1)² + (-1) - 2) (2 (-1) + 1) = 4
This is the slope of the tangent line to the function at (-1, 4).
Use the point-slope formula to get the equation for the tangent line:
<em>y</em> - 4 = 4 (<em>x</em> - (-1)) → <em>y</em> = 4<em>x</em> + 8
The correct answer is 2.8 liters
Explanation:
The volume of the water in the bottle can be calculated by subtracting 3.5 liters from the volume of water the pail can hold (6.3 liters) because the volume in the bottle is 3.5 liters less than the one in the pail. Below, you can find the process.
volume in the pail - 3.5 liters = volume in the bottle
6.3 liters - 3.5 liters = 2.8 liters
This means the volume of water in the bottle is 2.8 liters. Also, you can double-check this answer by adding the volume in the bottle and the 3.5 liters (2.8 + 3.5 = 6.3).
C = pi * r ^squared
r = is radius
square the radius, multiple by r
or
2 x pi x r
The equation for interest is
'Initial amount (interest rate in decimal form) ^ times compounded EX: years'
your equation would be
400(1.04)^10
which equals 592.097713 (not rounded)
