You can substitute a number in for x and compare the answer choices (not the most efficient way but it's how I would do it). Let's just say x = 5. Then the expression would equal 0.25819889. Substitute 5 in for x is the answer choices and see which one is the same.

A) simplified is 0.004 repeating

B) simplified is 0.25819889

C) simplified is 0.12

D) simplified is 1.341640786

We can see that B is the right answer

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

in similar figures the side lengths must be proportional:

4/8 = x/10 cross multiply fractions

40 = 8x divide both sides by 8

Find derivative problem<br> Find B’(6)

dalvyx [7]

Answer:

$B^\prime(6) \approx -28.17$

Step-by-step explanation:

We have:

$\displaystyle B(t)=24.6\sin(\frac{\pi t}{10})(8-t)$

And we want to find B’(6).

So, we will need to find B(t) first. To do so, we will take the derivative of both sides with respect to x. Hence:

$\displaystyle B^\prime(t)=\frac{d}{dt}[24.6\sin(\frac{\pi t}{10})(8-t)]$

We can move the constant outside:

$\displaystyle B^\prime(t)=24.6\frac{d}{dt}[\sin(\frac{\pi t}{10})(8-t)]$

Now, we will utilize the product rule. The product rule is:

$(uv)^\prime=u^\prime v+u v^\prime$

We will let:

$\displaystyle u=\sin(\frac{\pi t}{10})\text{ and } \\ \\ v=8-t$

Then:

$\displaystyle u^\prime=\frac{\pi}{10}\cos(\frac{\pi t}{10})\text{ and } \\ \\ v^\prime= -1$

(The derivative of u was determined using the chain rule.)

Then it follows that:

$\displaystyle \begin{aligned} B^\prime(t)&=24.6\frac{d}{dt}[\sin(\frac{\pi t}{10})(8-t)] \\ \\ &=24.6[(\frac{\pi}{10}\cos(\frac{\pi t}{10}))(8-t) - \sin(\frac{\pi t}{10})] \end{aligned}$
