Hello! There are a few ways to find the derivative. One famous formula is below:

Note, t = x = 8

\frac{f(x + h) - f(x)}{h}

To find the derivative of s(t) = -9 - 3t let insert it into our formula:

\frac{f(x + h) - f(x)}{h}

\frac{(-9 - 3(x + h)) - (-9 - 3x)}{h}

Insert x = 8

\frac{(-9 - 3(8 + h)) - (-9 - 3(8))}{h}

Do the Math

\frac{(-9 - 3(8 + h)) - (-9 - 3(8))}{h}

\frac{(-9 - 24 - 3h)) + 9 +24)}{h}

Group Like Terms

\frac{-9 + 9- 24 +24 - 3h )}{h}

Cancel Terms and Finish Doing The Math

\frac{-9 + 9- 24 +24 - 3h )}{h}

\frac{ -3h }{h}

\frac{ -3h }{h} = -3

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

So when t = 8 the instantaneous velocity = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

a)  

 C = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}-6&6\\-2&4\\\end{array}\right]

    = -24 + 12

   = -12

b)  -1   7          -4   -1                   -1  - 4        7 - 1               - 5      6

    -2 -6          -8    8      =          -2 - 8       -6 + 8              -10      2

     2 -3           2   -7                  2 + 2        -3 - 7               4       -10

   -1   10         -6     5                 -1 - 6         10 + 5              -7       15

7. The resistance of dry human skin is about 500,000 ohms in wet, sweaty
Alina [70]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1000 Ohms

R = 1000

V = 9

I = V / R

I = 9 / 1000

I = 0.009

500000 Ohms

V = 9

I = V/R

R = 500000

I = 9 / 500000

I = 0.000018
