\frac{1}{x} +\frac{1}{y} = 5\\\\x^{-1}+y^{-1}=5\\

Above, I changed the fraction form of x and y into exponential form so it is easier to see the differentiation. Now, we can differentiate:

-1x^{-2}+-1y^{-2}\frac{dy}{dx}=5\\\\\frac{-1}{x^2}-\frac{1}{y^2}\frac{dy}{dx}=5\\\\-\frac{1}{y^2}\frac{dy}{dx}=5+\frac{1}{x^2}\\\\\frac{dy}{dx}=-5y^2-\frac{y^2}{x^2}

Now that we have dy/dx, we can plug in the x, which is 4, and the y, which is 4/19. We know these values of x and y because your question stated y(4) = 4/19.

\frac{dy}{dx}=-5(\frac{4}{19})^2-\frac{(\frac{4}{19})^2}{(4)^2}\\\\\frac{dy}{dx}=-5(\frac{16}{361})-\frac{(\frac{16}{361})}{16}\\\\\frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{-80}{361}-\frac{1}{361}\\\\\frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{-81}{361}

C. 5 packs of pencils and 3 packs of erasers. it is c because no matter what 20(the pack of erasers) is multiplied by it will always end in a zero, therefore you would have to multiply 12 by a number that would make it a multiple of 20 as well which happens to be 5. 5×12=60 and 3×20=60

Answer:

  • The first mission

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>The depth readings are</u>

  • The first mission:  - 2 3/4 fathoms
  • The second mission: - 2 5/8 fathoms

<u>Comparing the readings</u>

  • - 2 3/4 = - 2 6/8  and  - 2 5/8

<u>Absolute values compared</u>

  • 2 6/8 > 2 5/8

Indicating the greater value on the first mission

As per above, the first mission was deeper
