one teacher wants to give each student 7/8 of a slice of pizza. If the teacher has 7 slices of pizza then how many students will

Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

The teacher can hand out pizza to 8 students.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find how many slices of pizza the teacher can hand out , you can divide 7 by 7/8 and round down the nearest whole number.

7 ÷ 7/8 = 8

8 is already a whole number. No need to round down.

The teacher can hand out pizza to 8 students.

Show that d^2y/dx^2=-2x/y^5, if x^3 + y^3=1

aalyn [17]

Answer:

y³ + x³ = 1

First, differentiate the first time, term by term:

${3y^{2}.\frac{dy}{dx} + 3x^{2}} = 0 \\\\{3y^{2}.\frac{dy}{dx} = -3x^{2}} \\\\\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{-3x^{2}}{3y^{2}} \\\\\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{-x^{2}}{y^{2}}$

↑ we'll substitute this later (4th step onwards)

Differentiate the second time:

$3y^{2}.\frac{dy}{dx} + 3x^{2} = 0 \\\\3y^{2}.\frac{d^{2} y}{dx^{2}} + 6y(\frac{dy}{dx})^{2} + 6x = 0 \\\\3y^{2}.\frac{d^{2} y}{dx^{2}} + 6y(\frac{dy}{dx})^{2} = - 6x \\\\3y^{2}.\frac{d^{2} y}{dx^{2}} + 6y(\frac{-x^{2} }{y^{2} })^{2} = - 6x \\\\3y^{2}.\frac{d^{2} y}{dx^{2}} + 6y(\frac{x^{4} }{y^{4} }) = - 6x \\\\3y^{2}.\frac{d^{2} y}{dx^{2}} + \frac{6x^{4} }{y^{3} } = - 6x \\\\3y^{2}.\frac{d^{2} y}{dx^{2}} = - 6x - \frac{6x^{4} }{y^{3} } \\\\$

$3y^{2}.\frac{d^{2} y}{dx^{2}} = - \frac{- 6xy^{3} - 6x^{4} }{y^{3}} \\\\\frac{d^{2} y}{dx^{2}} = - \frac{- 6xy^{3} - 6x^{4} }{3y^{2}. y^{3}} \\\\\frac{d^{2} y}{dx^{2}} = - \frac{- 2xy^{3} - 2x^{4} }{y^{5}} \\\\\frac{d^{2} y}{dx^{2}} = - \frac{-2x (y^{3} + x^{3})}{y^{5}} \\\\\frac{d^{2} y}{dx^{2}} = - \frac{-2x (1)}{y^{5}} \\\\\frac{d^{2} y}{dx^{2}} = - \frac{-2x}{y^{5}}$
