$2\frac{1}{2}=\frac{2\times2+1}{2}=\frac{5}{2}\\\\1\frac{1}{7}=\frac{1\times7+1}{7}=\frac{8}{7}\\\\2\frac{1}{2}:1\frac{1}{7}=\frac{5}{2}:\frac{8}{7}=\frac{5}{2}\times\frac{7}{8}=\frac{35}{16}=\frac{32+3}{16}=\frac{32}{16}+\frac{3}{16}=\boxed{2\frac{3}{16}}$

I'm going to change those to 5/2 and 8/7
Dividing is the same multiplying by the reciprocal (reciprocal of x is 1/x, reciprocal of x/y is y/x)
So (5/2)/(8/7)=(5/2)*(7/8)=(5*7)/(2*8)=35/16
Final answer: 35/16

Explain how to estimate the quotient using compatible numbers. 27 and two-thirds divided by 3 and StartFraction 9 over 10 EndFra

sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

The first fraction is between 27 and 28, closer to 28. The second fraction is between 3 and 4, closer to 4. Compatible numbers in division are numbers that can be divided mentally. 28 divided by 4 is 7. The quotient will be around 7.

Find the partial derivatives indicated Assume the variables are restricted to a domain on which the function is defined. z=x8+3y

ahrayia [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is incomplete. Here is the complete question.

Find the partial derivatives indicated Assume the variables are restricted to a domain on which the function is defined. z= $x^{8}$ + $3^{y}$ + $x^{y}$

a) Zx b) Zy

In differentiation, if y = axⁿ, y' = $nax^{n-1} \ where \ n\ is\ a\ constant$ . Applying this in question;

Given the function z = x⁸+ $3^{y}$ + $x^{y}$

$Z_x = \frac{\delta z}{\delta x} = 8x^{7} + 0 + yx^{y-1} \\\frac{\delta z}{\delta x} = 8x^{7} + yx^{y-1} \\$

Note that y is treated as a constant since we are to differentiate only with respect to x.

For Zy;

$Z_y = \frac{\delta z}{\delta y} =0+ 3^{y} ln3 + x^{y}lnx \\\frac{\delta z}{\delta y} = 3^{y} ln3 + x^{y}lnx } \\$

Here x is treated as a constant and differential of a constant is zero.

What is the midpoint of this segment??

Tatiana [17]

Answer:

A) 6,3

Why?

The midpoint, which is somewhat self-explanatory thanks to its name, is a point in the center of a line.

To answer this question properly, you need to analyze the line and assess the situation.

How did it go from x = 2 to x = 10? Let's see, if we count by two's across the line, you'll notice it makes more sense. So now we know that every square goes up by two. x = 6 is the exact center of the line.

I hope this wasn't confusing, it's tough to explain it!

Select the appropriate values of x that are solutions to f (x)=0, where f (x) = -7x^2 +4x+9

Ghella [55]

$-7x^2 +4x+9=0\\
\Delta=4^2-4\cdot(-7)\cdot9=16+252=268\\
\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{268}=2\sqrt{67}\\
x_1=\frac{-4-2\sqrt{67}}{2\cdot(-7)}=\frac{-4-2\sqrt{67}}{-14}=\frac{2+\sqrt{67}}{7}\approx1.46\\
x_2=\frac{-4+2\sqrt{67}}{2\cdot(-7)}=\frac{-4+2\sqrt{67}}{-14}=\frac{2-\sqrt{67}}{7}\approx-0.88\\$
