Given the relationship x2 + 3y2 =12, with y > 0 and dx, dt = 2 units/min., find the value of dy, dt at the instant y = 1 unit

matrenka [14]

$\bf x^2+3y^2=12\implies \stackrel{chain~rule}{2x\cfrac{dx}{dt}}+3 \stackrel{chain~rule}{\left(2y\cfrac{dy}{dt}\right)}=0
\\\\\\
2x\cfrac{dx}{dt}+6y\cfrac{dy}{dt}=0
\implies 
6y\cfrac{dy}{dt}=-2x\cfrac{dx}{dt}\implies \cfrac{dy}{dt}=\cfrac{-2x\frac{dx}{dt}}{
6y\frac{dy}{dt}}
\\\\\\
\boxed{\cfrac{dy}{dt}=-\cfrac{x\frac{dx}{dt}}{3y}}\\\\
-------------------------------$

$\bf \textit{now, when y = 1, what is \underline{x}?}\qquad x^2+3y^2=12\implies x^2+3(1)^2=12
\\\\\\
x^2=9\implies x=\sqrt{9}\implies x=3\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
\begin{cases}
y=1\\
x=3\\
\frac{dx}{dt}=2
\end{cases}\implies \cfrac{dy}{dt}=-\cfrac{3\cdot 2}{3\cdot 1}\implies \cfrac{dy}{dt}=-2$

Dr. David Smith lived 1/13 of his life as a child. He spent 4/39 of his life preparing for an outstanding

stich3 [128]

Answer:

40 14/25 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Well, this certainly is fun.

First, to find the fraction of the doctor's life which 13 years represents, subtract the fractions from 1 (and in this case l stands for lifetime):

$13 = (1 - (\frac{1}{13} + \frac{4}{39} + \frac{1}{2}))(l)$

$13 = (\frac{25}{78})(l)$

So, multiply this equation by the reciprocal of 25/78 to isolate one of l:

$13(\frac{78}{25}) = l$

$l = 40\frac{14}{25}$ years
