The derivative of f(x,y,z) in the direction of a vector \mathbf u is

\nabla_{\mathbf u}f=\nabla f\cdot\dfrac{\mathbf u}{\|\mathbf u\|}

With f(x,y,z)=xyz, we get

\nabla f=(yz,xz,xy)

and \mathbf u=(-1,-2,2),

\|\mathbf u\|=\sqrt{(-1)^2+(-2)^2+2^2}=3

Then

\nabla_{(-1,-2,2)}f(3,3,9)=(27,27,9)\cdot\dfrac{(-1,-2,2)}3=-21

Tina wrote the equations 3x - y = 9 and 4x + y + 5, What can Tina conclude about the solution to this system of equations?
Maru [420]
3x - y = 9
4x + y = 5
---------------add
7x = 14
x = 14/7
x = 2

3x - y = 9
3(2) - y = 9
6 - y = 9
-y = 9 - 6
-y = 3
y = -3

C. (2,-3) is a solution to the system of linear equations

Bess [88]

The value of k to the nearest integer is 21

  • Let the number of international tourist arrivals in Russia in 2011 be k

If the number of international tourist arrivals in Russia in 2012 was 13.5% greater than in 2011 will be expressed as:

k = 24.7 - (13% of 24.7)

k = 24.7 - (0.135 * 24.7)

k = 24.7 - 3.3345

k = 21.3655

Hence the value of k to the nearest integer is 21
