-162
Because 9 x 2 = 18
18 - 180 = -162

Answer:

The values of x are $x=\sqrt{20},\:x=-\sqrt{20}$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the function $f(x) = 9x^{2} - 180$ .

To find the value of x, you must set the function to zero

$9x^2\:-\:180=0$

Next, add 180 to both sides

$9x^2-180+180=0+180$

Simplify

$9x^2=180$

Divide both sides by 9

$\frac{9x^2}{9}=\frac{180}{9}$

Simplify

$x^2=20$

$\mathrm{For\:}x^2=f\left(a\right)\mathrm{\:the\:solutions\:are\:}x=\sqrt{f\left(a\right)},\:\:-\sqrt{f\left(a\right)}$

$x=\sqrt{20},\:x=-\sqrt{20}$ .

It says 7/6x= 140 I am lost can somebody please help me

kobusy [5.1K]

7/6x=140

since variable x is multiplied by 7/6, find x by multiplying by the inverse of 7/6 which is 6/7.

7/6x × 6/7 = 140 × 6/7
x= 120

Implicit Differentiation

Basic Power Rule:

f(x) = cxⁿ
f’(x) = c·nxⁿ⁻¹

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

$\displaystyle \sqrt{x} - \sqrt{y} = -1$

Point (1, 4)

Step 2: Differentiate

[Function] Rewrite [Exponential Rule - Root Rewrite]: $\displaystyle x^{\frac{1}{2}} - y^{\frac{1}{2}} = -1$
[Implicit Differentiation] Basic Power Rule: $\displaystyle \frac{1}{2}x^{\frac{1}{2} - 1} - \frac{1}{2}y^{\frac{1}{2} - 1}\frac{dy}{dx} = 0$
[Implicit Differentiation] Simplify Exponents: $\displaystyle \frac{1}{2}x^{\frac{-1}{2}} - \frac{1}{2}y^{\frac{-1}{2}}\frac{dy}{dx} = 0$
[Implicit Differentiation] Rewrite [Exponential Rule - Rewrite]: $\displaystyle \frac{1}{2x^{\frac{1}{2}}} - \frac{1}{2y^{\frac{1}{2}}}\frac{dy}{dx} = 0$
[Implicit Differentiation] Isolate y terms: $\displaystyle -\frac{1}{2y^{\frac{1}{2}}}\frac{dy}{dx} = -\frac{1}{2x^{\frac{1}{2}}}$
[Implicit Differentiation] Isolate $\displaystyle \frac{dy}{dx}$ : $\displaystyle \frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{2y^{\frac{1}{2}}}{2x^{\frac{1}{2}}}$
[Implicit Differentiation] Simplify: $\displaystyle \frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{y^{\frac{1}{2}}}{x^{\frac{1}{2}}}$

Step 3: Evaluate

Substitute in point [Derivative]: $\displaystyle \frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{(4)^{\frac{1}{2}}}{(1)^{\frac{1}{2}}}$
Exponents: $\displaystyle \frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{2}{1}$
Division: $\displaystyle \frac{dy}{dx} = 2$
