Probability he doesn't make a free shot = 10/10 - 7/10 = 3/10
Doesn't first time, does second time, so...
3/10 x 7/10 = 21/100

If y = 3x^3 - 2x and dx/dt equals 3, find dy/dt when x = -2. Give only the numerical answer. For example, if dy, dt = 4, type on

Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

$\frac{dy}{dt} = 102$

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>step(i)</u>

Given function y = 3 x³ - 2 x ... (i)

Differentiating equation (i) with respective to 'x'

$\frac{dy}{dx} = 3 (3 x^{2} ) - 2(1)$

Given x = -2

$(\frac{dy}{dx} ) x_{=-2} = 3 (3 (-2)^{2} ) - 2(1)$

$(\frac{dy}{dx} ) x_{=-2} = 36 -2 =34$

<u><em>Step(ii):-</em></u>

<u><em>we know that </em></u>

$\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{\frac{dy}{dt} }{\frac{dx}{dt} }$

Given $\frac{dx}{dt} = 3 and \frac{dy}{dx} = 34$

$\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{\frac{dy}{dt} }{\frac{dx}{dt} }$

substitute values $\frac{dx}{dt} = 3 and \frac{dy}{dx} = 34$

⇒ $34 = \frac{\frac{dy}{dt} }{3 }$

cross multiplication , we get

$\frac{dy}{dt} = 34( 3 ) = 102$

<u><em>Final answer</em></u>:-

$\frac{dy}{dt} = 34( 3 ) = 102$

180 miles in 3 hours, what's the unit rate?

Oliga [24]

Answer:

60 or 60:1

Step-by-step explanation:

You will have to divide 180 by 3 which is 60 or you can divide 160 / 3 = 60 & divide 3 / 3 = 1.
