Y=ax² + bx + c and A(-2,18), B(0.4), C(4,24) given

1)Let's determine 1st the value of c in using the pair of B
4= a(0)² + b(0) + c , c=4 and y=ax²+bx+4

2) Use the pair of A: 18 = 4a -2b + 4===> 4a-2b=14

3) Use C pair: 24 = 16a+4b+4 ==> 16a+4b=20

4) solve the system equation in 2) and 3) and you'll find a=2 and b=-3

Hence the equation is y =2x²-3x+4

17. Consider the function f(x, y, z) = xy ln(yz).

Lelu [443]

We can expand

$f(x,y,z) = xy\ln(yz) = xy \ln(y) + xy\ln(z)$

Then using the product and chain rules,

$\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial x} = y\ln(y) + y\ln(z) + \boxed{y\ln(yz)}$

$\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial y} = x\ln(y) + \dfrac{xy}y + x\ln(z) = \boxed{x\ln(yz) + x}$

$\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial z} = \boxed{\dfrac{xy}z}$

Answer:

multiply the bottom and the top by route 2 minus route 3

this gives 4 route 2 minus route 18 over minus 1

this gives minus 4 route 2 add route 18

route 18 simplifies to 3 route 2

minus 4 route 2 add 3 route 2 gives minus route 2 as the answer
