Determine whether or not F is a conservative vector field. If it is, find a function f such that F = ∇f. (If the vector field is

not conservative, enter DNE.) F(x, y) = (y2 − 4x)i + 2xyj

Answer:

f = xy²-2x² satisfies that  F = ∇f.

Step-by-step explanation:

F(x,y) = (y² - 4x) i + 2xy j

We want f(x,y) such that

f_x(x,y) = y^2 -4x\\f_y(x,y) = 2xy

Lets find a primitive of y²-4x respect to the variable x. We need to think y (and y²) as constants here, so a primitive of y² would be xy² the same way that a primitive of k is xk (because we treat y² as constant). A primitive of x is x²/2, thus a primitive of 4x is 2x². Thus, a primitive of y²-4x is xy² - 2x². We can obtain any other primitive by summing a constant, however since we treated y as constant, then we have that

f(x,y) = xy^2 - 2x^2 + c(y)

where c(y) only depends on y (thus, it is constant repsect with x).

We will derivate the expression in terms of y to obtain information about c(y)

2xy = f_y(x,y) = \frac{d}{dy} (xy^2 - 2x^2 + c(y) ) = 2xy -0 + \frac{d}{dy} c(y) = 2xy + \frac{d}{dy} c(y)

Thus, \frac{d}{dy} is constant. We can take f(x,y) = xy²-2x². This function f satisfies that  F = ∇f.

Answer:

A. Subtraction Property of Equality

Step-by-step explanation:

3x + 4 = 10

Subtract 4 from both sides ---->Subtraction Property of Equality

3x + 4 - 4 = 10 - 4

3x = 6

So

If 3x + 4 = 10, then 3x = 6

Answer:

  1. b
  2. f
  3. e
  4. c
  5. h
  6. d
  7. g
  8. a

Step-by-step explanation:

< or > will give you an open dot which means it is not filled in.

≤ or ≥ will give you a closed dot which means it is filled in.

So for example number one:

x > 0 translated is x is greater than zero.

So look on the number line for an open dot on zero going toward the left (the side where the numbers get smaller). The rest are self explanatory.
