Answer:

<h2>Frank speed = 37mi/h</h2><h2>Gregory speed = 59mi/hr</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the speed of Frank be x and speed of Gregory be y. If Gregory drives 22 miles per hour faster than Frank, then y = 22+x. SInce they they are 216miles apart after 2.25 hours,

Speed = Distance/Time

Total time travelled by them = 2.25hours

Total distance = 216 hours

Total speed = x+y = x+22+x

Substituting this parameters into the formula given to get x we will have;

x+22+x = 216/2.25

2x+22 = 96

2x = 96-22

2x = 74

x = 74/2

x = 37

<em>Hence the speed of Frank is 37miles per hour while that of gregory is 37+22 = 59miles/hour</em>

A rental car company charges $53.75 per day to rent a car and $0.12 for every mile driven. Jaya wants to rent a car, knowing tha
Aliun [14]

Answer:

Jaya can afford to rent a car 4 days while staying within her budget.

Step-by-step explanation:

The inequality would have to indicate that the cost of renting a car has to be less than or equal to $230. The cost to rent a car is equal to the cost per day for the number of days plus the price per mile for the number of miles, which is:

53.75x+0.12y≤230, where:

x is the number of days the car is rented

y is the number of miles driven

As the statement says that she plans to drive 125 miles, you can replace "y" with this value and solve for x:

53.75x+0.12(125)≤230

53.75x+15≤230

53.75x≤230-15

53.75x≤215

x≤215/53.75

x≤4

According to this, the answer is that Jaya can afford to rent a car 4 days while staying within her budget.

Find the derivative of sinx/1+cosx, using quotient rule​
Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

f'(x) = -1/(1 - Cos(x))

Step-by-step explanation:

The quotient rule for derivation is:

For f(x) = h(x)/k(x)

f'(x) = \frac{h'(x)*k(x) - k'(x)*h(x)}{k^2(x)}

In this case, the function is:

f(x) = Sin(x)/(1 + Cos(x))

Then we have:

h(x) = Sin(x)

h'(x) = Cos(x)

And for the denominator:

k(x) = 1 - Cos(x)

k'(x) = -( -Sin(x)) = Sin(x)

Replacing these in the rule, we get:

f'(x) = \frac{Cos(x)*(1 - Cos(x)) - Sin(x)*Sin(x)}{(1 - Cos(x))^2}

Now we can simplify that:

f'(x) = \frac{Cos(x)*(1 - Cos(x)) - Sin(x)*Sin(x)}{(1 - Cos(x))^2} = \frac{Cos(x) - Cos^2(x) - Sin^2(x)}{(1 - Cos(x))^2}

And we know that:

cos^2(x) + sin^2(x) = 1

then:

f'(x) = \frac{Cos(x)- 1}{(1 - Cos(x))^2} = - \frac{(1 - Cos(x))}{(1 - Cos(x))^2} = \frac{-1}{1 - Cos(x)}
