Answer:

x=0.5 y=4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve your system by substitution.

2x+0.5y=3;x+2y=8.5

Rewrite equations:

x+2y=8.5;2x+0.5y=3

Step: Solvex+2y=8.5for x:

x+2y=8.5

x+2y+−2y=8.5+−2y(Add -2y to both sides)

x=−2y+8.5

Step: Substitute−2y+8.5forxin2x+0.5y=3:

2x+0.5y=3

2(−2y+8.5)+0.5y=3

−3.5y+17=3(Simplify both sides of the equation)

−3.5y+17+−17=3+−17(Add -17 to both sides)

−3.5y=−14

−3.5y

−3.5

=

−14

−3.5

(Divide both sides by -3.5)

y=4

Step: Substitute4foryinx=−2y+8.5:

x=−2y+8.5

x=(−2)(4)+8.5

x=0.5(Simplify both sides of the equation)

Answer:

x=0.5 and y=4

A particle begins at point (1, 2) and is moving along the line segment joining (1, 2) to (3, 4). Initially, what is the rate of
Bumek [7]

Answer:

Initially, that is, at (1,2), the rate of increase of the function in the direction given = 0

Hence the function is neither increasing nor decreasing initially in the given direction.

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x,y) = 2x² - y²

Rate of Change of the function = ∇f = (fₓ, fᵧ)

And we're told to find the rate of change in a particular direction = ∇f.û

We first obtain the unit vector in that direction, û

Direction = (3,4) - (1,2) = (2,2)

Uni vector = vector/magnitude

Vector = 2î + 2j

magnitude = √(2² + 2²) = √8 = 2 √2

(2î + 2j)/(2√2) = (1/√2)î + (1/√2)j = û

Unit vector in the direction = (1/√2, 1/√2)

f = 2x² - y²

At (1,2)

fₓ = ∂f/∂x = 4x = 4

fᵧ = ∂f/∂y = -2y = -4

∇f = (4,-4)

∇f.û = (4î - 4j).((1/√2)î + (1/√2)j) = (4/√2) - (4/√2) = 0

If it was positive, then the function is increasing, if it was negative, the function is decreasing. Zero means neither of them.

Hence the function is neither increasing nor decreasing initially in the given direction.

Describe what a finite graph is and give an example of how a finite graph would be used to represent something.
skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

A graph with a set amount of numbers.

Step-by-step explanation:

Infinite means never ending and that's what most graphs are. But, a finite graph is a graph that doesn't have arrows at the end of the lines. (simplified answer) A better way of saying it is a graph with a fixed starting position and a fixed ending position. You can use this type of graph if you don't want to go over or under a certain value.

Hope this helps!
