Two trains leave a city at 3 P.M. One train goes east at a constant rate of 70 mph. The other goes west at a rate of 62 mph. How
andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

4 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

The general formula for distance, rate and time is:

d = rt, where distance is the product of rate multiplied by time

Given that one train is moving at a rate of 70 mph and one is moving at a rate of 62 mph in the opposite direction, the combined distance over time is equal to 528 miles.  Using the variable 't' for time:

70t + 62t = 528

Combine like terms: 132t = 528

Divide both sides by 132: 132t/132 = 528/132  or t = 4 hours

Further mathematics: Find the derivative of the function x^2 y + (xy)^3 +3x=0 at (-1 , 3)​
vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Implicit differentiation:

x^2 y + (xy)^3 + 3x = 0

x^2 y + x^3y^3 + 3x = 0

Using the product rule:

2x* y + x^2*dy/dx + 3x^2 y^3 + x^3* (d(y^3)/dx) + 3 = 0

2xy + x^2 dy/dx + 3x^2 y^3 + x^3* 3y^2 dy/dx + 3 = 0

dy/dx(x^2 + 3y^2x^3) =  (-2xy - 3x^2y^3 - 3)

dy/dx=  (-2xy - 3x^2y^3 - 3) / (x^2 + 3y^2x^3)

At the point (-1, 3).

the derivative =  (6 - 81 - 3)/(1 -27)

= -78/-26

=  3.
