(his owner must stay behind and guard the coconuts.) the monkey is fiercely strong and can carry 1000 coconuts at a time. however he eats one coconut every mile. what is the maximum number of coconuts the monkey can get across the oasis? how does the monkey do it? explain in detail how you arrived to your answer. hint: the monkey does not have to go all the way across the oasis in one trip.

The monkey can travel by water, carrying all coconuts at once. Because it is an <em>oasis</em> there is fresh water he can drink, and go across in a boat. An oasis is usually found in the desert, and they have water and trees. If the monkey were to take all of the coconuts at once, carrying them onto the boat 1000 at a time, he will not have to eat any coconuts. And if he does, he takes 1500 more.

Answer:

5 × \frac{1}{100}

Step-by-step explanation:

4*100+2*10+3*1+6*\frac{1}{10}+x+9*\frac{1}{1000}=423.659\\4*100+2*10+3*1+6*0.1+x+9*0.001=423.659\\400+20+3+0.6+x+0.009=423.659\\423.609+x=423.659\\x=0.05\\\\50*\frac{1}{10}=5\\\\5*\frac{1}{100}=0.05\\\\50=50\\\\5*0.05=0.25

Find the slope of the curve r=cos(2theta) at theta=pi/6.. . Must this be solved parametrically? If so, why?
lara31 [8.8K]

By converting into parametric equations,

<span><span>x(θ)=r(θ)cosθ=cos2θ<span>cosθ
</span></span><span>y(θ)=r(θ)sinθ=cos2θsinθ</span></span>

By Product Rule,

<span>x'(θ)=−sin2θcosθ−cos2θsinθ</span>

<span>x'<span>(π/2)</span>=−<span>sin(π)</span><span>cos<span>(π/2)</span></span>−<span>cos(π)</span><span>sin<span>(π/2)</span></span>=1</span>

<span>y'(θ)=−sin2θsinθ+cos2θcosθ</span>

<span>y'<span>(π/2)</span>=−<span>sin(π)</span><span>sin<span>(π/2)</span></span>+<span>cos(π)</span><span>cos<span>(π/2)</span></span>=0</span>

So, the slope m of the curve can be found by

<span>m=<span>dy/dx</span><span>∣<span>θ=<span>π2
</span></span></span>= <span><span>y'<span>(π/2)/</span></span><span>x'<span>(π/2)
</span></span></span></span>=0/1

I hope my answer has come to your help. Thank you for posting your question here in Brainly.
