In 1997 = 17697


Because, each year, the number of employees is expected to decrease by 2.2%, find 2.2% of 17697 and subtract from the number.

2.2/100 x 17697 = 38933.4/100 = 389.334

^that was calculating 2.2% of 17697. Now we subtract:

17697.000
- 389.334
17307.666 =

Round to the nearest whole number = 17308

Answer: in 1998, the expected number of workers is 17308

  • f’(x) = c·nxⁿ⁻¹

Derivative Rule [Chain Rule]:                                                                                    \displaystyle \frac{d}{dx}[f(g(x))] =f'(g(x)) \cdot g'(x)

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

<u />\displaystyle y = \sqrt{x - 3}<u />

<u />\displaystyle y' = \frac{1}{2}<u />

<u />

<u>Step 2: Differentiate</u>

  1. [Function] Rewrite [Exponential Rule - Root Rewrite]:                                   \displaystyle y = (x - 3)^{\frac{1}{2}}
  2. Chain Rule:                                                                                                        \displaystyle y' = \frac{d}{dx}[(x - 3)^{\frac{1}{2}}] \cdot \frac{d}{dx}[x - 3]
  3. Basic Power Rule:                                                                                             \displaystyle y' = \frac{1}{2}(x - 3)^{\frac{1}{2} - 1} \cdot (1 \cdot x^{1 - 1} - 0)
  4. Simplify:                                                                                                             \displaystyle y' = \frac{1}{2}(x - 3)^{-\frac{1}{2}} \cdot 1
  5. Multiply:                                                                                                             \displaystyle y' = \frac{1}{2}(x - 3)^{-\frac{1}{2}}
  6. [Derivative] Rewrite [Exponential Rule - Rewrite]:                                          \displaystyle y' = \frac{1}{2(x - 3)^{\frac{1}{2}}}
  7. [Derivative] Rewrite [Exponential Rule - Root Rewrite]:                                 \displaystyle y' = \frac{1}{2\sqrt{x - 3}}

<u>Step 3: Solve</u>

<em>Find coordinates</em>

<em />

<em>x-coordinate</em>

  1. Substitute in <em>y'</em> [Derivative]:                                                                             \displaystyle \frac{1}{2} = \frac{1}{2\sqrt{x - 3}}
  2. [Multiplication Property of Equality] Multiply 2 on both sides:                      \displaystyle 1 = \frac{1}{\sqrt{x - 3}}
  3. [Multiplication Property of Equality] Multiply √(x - 3) on both sides:            \displaystyle \sqrt{x - 3} = 1
  4. [Equality Property] Square both sides:                                                           \displaystyle x - 3 = 1
  5. [Addition Property of Equality] Add 3 on both sides:                                    \displaystyle x = 4

<em>y-coordinate</em>

  1. Substitute in <em>x</em> [Function]:                                                                                \displaystyle y = \sqrt{4 - 3}
  2. [√Radical] Subtract:                                                                                          \displaystyle y = \sqrt{1}
  3. [√Radical] Evaluate:                                                                                         \displaystyle y = 1

∴ Coordinates of Point N is (4, 1).

It takes Bruce 12 h to complete his training. It takes Oliver approximately 2 days, 2 h, and 15 min to complete
Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

Oliver completed his training work in 50.25 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

1 day= 24 hours

1 hour=60 minutes

we have

2 days, 2 h, and 15 min

<u><em>Convert days to hours</em></u>

2 days=2(24)=48 hours

<u><em>Convert minutes to hour</em></u>

15 min=15(1/60)=1/4=0.25 h

so

2 days, 2 h, and 15 min=(48)+(2)+(0.25)=50.25 h

therefore

Oliver completed his training work in 50.25 hours
