Answer:

a) The gradient of a function is the vector of partial derivatives. Then

\nabla f=(\frac{\partial f}{\partial x}, \frac{\partial f}{\partial y})=(y,x)=y\hat{i} + x\hat{j}

b) It's enough evaluate P in the gradient.

\nabla f(P)=(-4,-4)=-4\hat{i} - 4 \hat{j}

c) The directional derivative of f at P in direction of V is the dot produtc of \nabla f(P) and v.

\nabla f(P) v=(-4,-4)\left[\begin{array}{ccc}2\\3\end{array}\right] =(-4)2+(-4)3=-20

d) The maximum rate of change of f at P is the magnitude of the gradient vector at P.

||\nabla f(P)||=\sqrt{(-4)^2+(-4)^2}=\sqrt{32}=4\sqrt{2}

e) The maximum rate of change occurs in the direction of the gradient. Then

v=\frac{1}{4\sqrt{2}}(-4,-4)=(\frac{-1}{\sqrt{2}},\frac{-1}{\sqrt{2}})= \frac{-1}{\sqrt{2}}\hat{i}-\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\hat{j}

is the direction vector in which the maximum rate of change occurs at P.

Solve each of the following equations. (2 answers)<br><br> |2x-3|=2
Roman55 [17]

Answer:

x= 5/2 or 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

absolute value always gives us positive

if |u| = 2, u can be -2 or 2

2x-3 = 2

2x = 5

x = 5/2

2x-3 = -2

2x = 1

x= 1/2

in general, set the stuff inside the absolute value to equal both positive and negative of the equivalent value

If you read can read 40 pages in 2 hours, how many pages can you read in 5 hours?
Pavlova-9 [17]
You can read 100 pages in 5 hours.

40 pages in 2 hours. We need to get the unit rate. In this case, we need to get the number of pages read in 1 hour.

40 pages ÷ 2 hours = 20 pages per hour.

20 pages per hours * 5 hours = 100 pages.

Use a number line to find the quotient <br> 3/5 divided by 3/10<br> (———————————)
frutty [35]

Answer:

2 ( plot the answer on 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

We do the reciprocal of 3/10 because we are dividing fraction. Which would be 10/3. Change the sign to multiplication because we are dividing fractions. And multiply regularly. SO it would be 3/5 times 10/3 = 2
