10 - 2x
10 - 2(7)
= 10 - 14
= -4

F(7) = 10-2(7)
f(7) = 10-14
f(7) = -4

All you need to do is replace x with 7.

How to differentiate ?

Bas_tet [7]

Use the power, product, and chain rules:

$y = x^2 (3x-1)^3$

• product rule

$\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx} = \dfrac{\mathrm d(x^2)}{\mathrm dx}\times(3x-1)^3 + x^2\times\dfrac{\mathrm d(3x-1)^3}{\mathrm dx}$

• power rule for the first term, and power/chain rules for the second term:

$\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx} = 2x\times(3x-1)^3 + x^2\times3(x-1)^2\times\dfrac{\mathrm d(3x-1)}{\mathrm dx}$

• power rule

$\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx} = 2x\times(3x-1)^3 + x^2\times3(3x-1)^2\times3$

Now simplify.

$\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx} = 2x(3x-1)^3 + 9x^2(3x-1)^2 \\\\ \dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx} = x(3x-1)^2 \times (2(3x-1) + 9x) \\\\ \boxed{\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx} = x(3x-1)^2(15x-2)}$

You could also use logarithmic differentiation, which involves taking logarithms of both sides and differentiating with the chain rule.

On the right side, the logarithm of a product can be expanded as a sum of logarithms. Then use other properties of logarithms to simplify

$\ln(y) = \ln\left(x^2(3x-1)^3\right) \\\\ \ln(y) = \ln\left(x^2\right) + \ln\left((3x-1)^3\right) \\\\ \ln(y) = 2\ln(x) + 3\ln(3x-1)$

Differentiate both sides and you end up with the same derivative:

$\dfrac1y\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx} = \dfrac2x + \dfrac9{3x-1} \\\\ \dfrac1y\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx} = \dfrac{15x-2}{x(3x-1)} \\\\ \dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx} = \dfrac{15x-2}{x(3x-1)} \times x^2(3x-1)^3 \\\\ \dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx} = x(15x-2)(3x-1)^2$

Penny needs 30 cubic ft of sand to fill a sandbox. She plans to buy 10 bags of sand for her sandbox. Each bag contains 2.9 cubic

Romashka [77]

The correct answer is C.

Because: 2.9 multiplied by 10 bags equals 29cubic ft and she needs 30 cubic ft. So she would need to buy 11 bags to make sure she has enough sand for the whole thing. 11 x 2.9 = 31.9 which ensures she has enough for the whole thing including extra in case. So you answer would be Answer C.
