1.75 + 0.25x ≤ 15
where x is equal the number of miles.
The key to solving an inequality is just temporarily making the ≤ symbol a =. Then solve for x like any other algebraic equation. Once you find the value of x, you will have solved the inequality. Make sure to add back the ≤ when you are done.
15 - 1.75 = 13.25
13.25/0.25 = x
x = 53
add back the ≤
x ≤ 53
This means Eddies can travel up to 53 miles with his $15.
If the drawing of your octagon (or whatever) has been separated into triangles, and one triangle's area<span> is labeled, then you do not need to know the apothem. Just take the </span>area<span> of that one triangle, and multiply by the number of sides in the original </span>polygon<span>.</span>
The given equation of the ellipse is x^2
+ y^2 = 2 x + 2 y
At tangent line, the point is horizontal with the x-axis
therefore slope = dy / dx = 0
<span>So we have to take the 1st derivative of the equation
then equate dy / dx to zero.</span>
x^2 + y^2 = 2 x + 2 y
x^2 – 2 x = 2 y – y^2
(2x – 2) dx = (2 – 2y) dy
(2x – 2) / (2 – 2y) = 0
2x – 2 = 0
x = 1
To find for y, we go back to the original equation then substitute
the value of x.
x^2 + y^2 = 2 x + 2 y
1^2 + y^2 = 2 * 1 + 2 y
y^2 – 2y + 1 – 2 = 0
y^2 – 2y – 1 = 0
Finding the roots using the quadratic formula:
y = [-(- 2) ± sqrt ( (-2)^2 – 4*1*-1)] / 2*1
y = 1 ± 2.828
y = -1.828 , 3.828
<span>Therefore the tangents are parallel to the x-axis at points (1, -1.828)
and (1, 3.828).</span>
