Pick any two points on the line and find the slope.

I chose the points (0,35) and (1,105).

The speed of the motorboat is 70 miles per hour.
Hope this helps!!!!

Phyllis invested 51000 dollars, a portion earning a simple interest rate of 4 percent per year and the rest earning a rate of 7

Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

Phyllis invested $11,000 at a simple interest rate of 7 percent per year and $40,000 at a simple interest rate of 4 percent per year.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the information provided, you can write the following equations:

x+y=51000 (1)

0.04x+0.07y=2370 (2), where

x is the portion earning a simple interest rate of 4 percent per year

y is the portion earning a simple interest rate of 7 percent per year

First, you can isolate x in (1):

x=51000-y (3)

Now, you can replace (3) in (2) and solve for y:

0.04(51000-y)+0.07y=2370

2040-0.04y+0.07y=2370

0.03y=330

y=330/0.03

y=11000

Then, you can replace the value of y in (3) to find the value of x:

x=51000-11000

x=40000

According to this, the answer is that Phyllis invested $11,000 at a simple interest rate of 7 percent per year and $40,000 at a simple interest rate of 4 percent per year.

The sum of two numbers is 24. The difference is 15. What are the two numbers?

tatiyna

The numbers are "x" and "y",
we suggest this system of equations.
x+y=24
x-y=15
solve by reduction method.
x+y=24
x-y=15
-----------------
2x=39 ⇒x=39/2=19.5

x+y=24
-(x-y=15)
-------------------
2y=9 ⇒y=9/2=4.5

The numbers are 19.5 and 4.5

To check
19.5+4.5=24
19.5-4.5=15

F(x) = lnx/x

My name is Ann [436]

$f(x) = \frac{lnx}{x}$

(a) $f'(x) = \frac{d}{dx}[\frac{lnx}{x}]$
Using the quotient rule:
$f'(x) = \frac{\frac{1}{x} \cdot x - lnx}{x^{2}}$
$f'(x) = \frac{1 - lnx}{x^{2}}$

For maximum, f'(x) = 0;
$\frac{1 - lnx}{x} = 0$
$lnx = 1, x = e$

(b) <em>Deduce:
</em> $e^{x} \geq x^{e}, x > 0$
<em>
Soln:</em> Since x = e is the greatest value, then f(e) ≥ f(x) > f(0)
$\frac{ln(e)}{e} \geq \frac{lnx}{x}$
$\frac{1}{e} \geq \frac{lnx}{x}$ , since ln(e) is simply equal to 1

Now, since x > 0, then we don't have to worry about flipping the signs when multiplying by x.
$\frac{x}{e} \geq lnx$
$x \geq elnx$
$x \geq ln(x^{e})$

Taking the exponential to both sides will cancel with the natural logarithmic function in the right hand side to produce:
$e^{x} \geq e^{ln(x^{e}})$
$e^{x} \geq x^{e}$ , as required.
