The equation is derived from the conservation of energy, specifically from potential energy stored at a given height in a gravitational field.

When potential energy is completely converted to kinetic energy you have:

(mv^2)/2=mgh  divide both sides by the mass m

v^2/2=gh  multiply both sides by 2

v^2=2gh take the square root of both sides

v=√(2gh)  and working with imperial units for acceleration due to gravity, g=-32ft/s^2

v=√(-64h)  but the change of h as it falls is negative h so

v=-√(64h) so if an object falls from a height of 88ft we have:

v=-√(64*84)

v=-√5376

v≈-73.32 ft/sec (to the nearest hundredth of a foot per second)

Note that this is the velocity, it is negative 73.32 ft/sec.

The question inadvertently asked for velocity and provided answers for SPEED.  Velocity is a vector and has both magnitude and direction, whereas speed just has magnitude.

So its final speed is 73.32 ft/sec

So if they actually wanted velocity none of their answers is correct :P

Differentiating a Logarithmic Function in Exercise, find the derivative of the function. See Examples 1, 2, 3, and 4.
Tasya [4]

Answer:

\frac{dy}{dx}=-[(\frac{5x+24}{36x-6x^2})]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given function:

y =\ln(\frac{(6 - x)^{\frac{3}{2}}}{x^{\frac{2}{3}}})

we know

\ln(\frac{A}{B}) = ln(A) - ln(B)

thus,

y = \ln((6 - x)^{\frac{3}{2}}) - \ln(x^{\frac{2}{3}})

or

also,

ln(Aⁿ) = n × ln(A)

thus,

y = (\frac{3}{2})\times\ln(6 - x) - (\frac{2}{3})\times\ln(x)

therefore,

\frac{dy}{dx}=[(\frac{3}{2})\times\frac{1}{(6-x)}\times(0 - 1)] - [ (\frac{2}{3})\times\frac{1}{x}\times1]

or

\frac{dy}{dx}=-(\frac{3}{2(6-x)}) - (\frac{2}{3x})

or

\frac{dy}{dx}=-[(\frac{3(3x)+2\times2(6-x)}{2(6-x)\times(3x)})]

or

\frac{dy}{dx}=-[(\frac{5x+24}{36x-6x^2})]

Which of the following is the minimum value of the equation y = 3x^2 − 4x − 2?
KonstantinChe [14]

Answer:

-3 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

The quadratic

... y = ax² +bx +c

has its extreme value at

... x = -b/(2a)

Since a = 3 is positive, we know the parabola opens upward and the extreme value is a minimum. (We also know that from the problem statement asking us to find the minimum value.) The value of x at the minimum is -(-4)/(2·3) = 2/3.

To find the minimum value, we need to evaluate the function for x=2/3.

The most straightforward way to do this is to substitue 2/3 for x.

... y = 3(2/3)² -4(2/3) -2 = 3(4/9) -8/3 -2

... y = (4 -8 -6)/3 = -10/3

... y = -3 1/3

_____

<em>Confirmation</em>

You can also use a graphing calculator to show you the minimum.
