What is the difference between x and dx?

Mathematics

N76 [4]3 years ago

This response is based upon your having had some background in calculus. "dx" is not introduced before that.

Take a look at the sample function y = f(x) = x^2 + 9. Here x is the independent variable; the dependent variable y changes with x.

Now, for a big jump: we consider finding the area under a curve (graph) between x = a and x = b. We subdivide that interval [a,b] into n vertical slices of area. Each of those slices has its own area: f(x)*dx, where dx represents the width of such subarea. f(x)*dx is the actual subarea. To find the total area under the curve f(x) between x= a and x = b, we add up all of these individual subareas between x = a and x = b. Note that the subinterval width is

b-a

dx = ---------- , and that dx becomes smaller and smaller as the number of

n subintervals increases.

Once again, this all makes sense only if you've begun calculus (particularly integral calculus). Do not try to relate it to earlier math courses.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a  (2³)² = 2³ˣ² = 2⁶

b (7⁰)¹ = 7⁰ˣ¹ = 7⁰ = 1

c (5⁶)³ = 5⁶ˣ³ = 5¹⁸

d (6²)⁴ = 6²ˣ⁴ = 6⁸

e (8³)⁴ = 8³ˣ⁴ = 8¹²

f (4³)² = 4³ˣ² = 4⁶

g (9¹)² = 9¹ˣ² = 9² = 81

h (3⁷)² = 3⁷ˣ² = 3¹⁴

i (10²)³ = 10²ˣ³ = 10⁶

j (11²)⁴ = 11²ˣ⁴ = 11⁸

nika2105 [10]

Answer:

4. -4

5. -2

6. -3

Step-by-step explanation:

4. -12 = 5r + 8

Subtract 8 from both sides;

-20 = 5r

Divide both sides by 5;

-4 = r OR r = -4

5. -6p - 3 = 9

Add 3 to both sides;

-6p = 12

Divide both sides by -6

p = -2

6. -14 = 4x - 2

Add 2 to both sides;

-12 = 4x

Divide both sides by 4;

-3 = x OR x = -3

wlad13 [49]

Answer:

f(n) = 16(0.5)ⁿ⁻¹

Step-by-step explanation:

Find f(1) for each option.

a) f(1) = 16(0.5)¹⁻¹ = 16

b) f(1) = 32(0.5)¹⁻¹ = 32

c) f(1) = 16(0.5)¹ = 8

d) f(1) = 32(0.5)¹⁺¹ = 8

Only the first option matches the table.
