If L is the line through the point (-3,5) having a slope of (2/3) complete the equation of L

1 answer:

4 0

Y = mx + b
slope(m) = 2/3
(-3,5)...x = -3 and y = 5
now sub and find b, the y int
5 = 2/3(-3) + b
5 = -2 + b
5 + 2 = b
7 = b

so ur equation is : y = 2/3x + 7

Find dy/dx by implicit differentiation. y cos x = 5x2 + 3y2

lbvjy [14]

Step 1:
Start by putting $\frac{d}{dx}$ in front of each term

$\frac{d}{dx}[y cos x]= \frac{d}{dx}[5x^2]+ \frac{d}{dx}[ 3y^2]$
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Step 2:

Deal with the terms in 'x' and the constant terms
$\frac{d}{dx}[ycosx]= 10x+ \frac{d}{dx} [3y^2]$
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Step 3:

Use the chain rule for the terms in 'y'
$\frac{d}{dx}[ycosx]=10x+6y \frac{dy}{dx}$
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Step 4:

Use the product rule on the term in 'x' and 'y'
$(y) \frac{d}{dx} cos x+(cos x) \frac{d}{dx}y =10x+6y \frac{dy}{dx}
$
$y(-siny)+(cosx) \frac{dy}{dx} =10x+6y \frac{dy}{dx}$
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Step 5:

Rearrange to make $\frac{dy}{dx}$ the subject
$-y sin(y)+cos(x) \frac{dy}{dx} =10x+6y \frac{dy}{dx}$
$cos(x) \frac{dy}{dx}-6y \frac{dy}{dx}=10x+y sin(y)$
$[cos(x) - 6y] \frac{dy}{dx}=10x + y sin(y)$
$\frac{dy}{dx}= \frac{10x+ysin(y)}{cos(x)-6y}$ ⇒ Final Answer

I need help, and I’m also confused.

amid [387]

There are two triangles, a big triangle and a small triangle that is inside the big triangle. Because the base of the triangles are parallel to each other( indicated by the arrow), and the small triangle is perfectly inside the bigger triangle, the sides of the triangles are proportional.

It is know that the base of the small triangle is 3.5, and the hypotenuse of the small triangle is 7cm. it is also known that the the hypotenuse of the big triangle is (7+8)=15 and the base of the big triangle is unknown.

Since the triangles are proportional,
to find the base of the big triangle

base(big)/hypotenuse(big)=base(small)/hypotenuse(small)

Plug in the numbers

x/15=3.5/7
x/15=1/2
x=15/2
x=7.5

The length of the base of the big triangle is 7.5cm

Convert the polar equation to rectangular form: r = 2 / [1 + sin(theta)]

iren2701 [21]

R = 2 / (1 + sin θ)

Using the following relations:

R = sqrt (x^2 + y^2)
sin θ = y/R

R = 2 / (1 + y/R)
R(1 + y/R) = 2
R + y = 2
R = 2 - y
sqrt(x^2 + y^2) = 2 - y

Squaring both sides:
x^2 + y^2 = (2 - y)^2
x^2 + y^2 = 4 - 4y + y^2

x^2 + 4y - 4

What is the solution to the system of equations? Use the substitution method.

aleksandrvk [35]

{ y = 3 x - 4
9x -3y = 14

Subsititute y = 3x-4 :

[ 9 x - 3 ( 3 x-14 )=14]

Refine:

9 x - 3 ( 3 x - 4 ) = 14

- 2 = 0

is false , therefore the system of equations has no solution

Answer A

hope this helps!
