You can determine what variable your function depends upon. In the example of y = 2x + 6, the function changes as the value of x changes, so the function is dependent upon x. The left side of your function is the name of your function followed by the dependent variable in parentheses, f(x) for the example.
Philip and Barbara are 8 meters apart because 5+3=8 so it will make 8 meters
Answer:
ok so this problem you are basically just rearranging it. you're going to want y by itself.
Step-by-step explanation:
let's start with the original equation: 5-y=1/3x +12
so first you have to move the five over, so you subtract 5 from both sides. -y=1/3x+12-5
then you subtract the 5 from the twelve since they're like terms: -y=1/3x+7
and finally you have to move the negative over. when you move the negative think of it like dividing negative one from both sides, everything on the other side has to get the negative.
so we're left with y=-1/3x-7
I hope this helps!
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
solving for dy/dx
multiply the equation out to remove parentheses
now differentiating in terms of x (
)
isolating dy/dx to one side
