Find the point (,) on the curve =8 that is closest to the point (3,0). [To do this, first find the distance function between (,)

ELEN [110]

Question:

Find the point (,) on the curve $y = \sqrt x$ that is closest to the point (3,0).

[To do this, first find the distance function between (,) and (3,0) and minimize it.]

Answer:

$(x,y) = (\frac{5}{2},\frac{\sqrt{10}}{2}})$

Step-by-step explanation:

$y = \sqrt x$ can be represented as: $(x,y)$

Substitute $\sqrt x$ for $y$

$(x,y) = (x,\sqrt x)$

So, next:

Calculate the distance between $(x,\sqrt x)$ and $(3,0)$

Distance is calculated as:

$d = \sqrt{(x_1-x_2)^2 + (y_1 - y_2)^2}$

So:

$d = \sqrt{(x-3)^2 + (\sqrt x - 0)^2}$

$d = \sqrt{(x-3)^2 + (\sqrt x)^2}$

Evaluate all exponents

$d = \sqrt{x^2 - 6x +9 + x}$

Rewrite as:

$d = \sqrt{x^2 + x- 6x +9 }$

$d = \sqrt{x^2 - 5x +9 }$

Differentiate using chain rule:

Let

$u = x^2 - 5x +9$

$\frac{du}{dx} = 2x - 5$

So:

$d = \sqrt u$

$d = u^\frac{1}{2}$

$\frac{dd}{du} = \frac{1}{2}u^{-\frac{1}{2}}$

Chain Rule:

$d' = \frac{du}{dx} * \frac{dd}{du}$

$d' = (2x-5) * \frac{1}{2}u^{-\frac{1}{2}}$

$d' = (2x - 5) * \frac{1}{2u^{\frac{1}{2}}}$

$d' = \frac{2x - 5}{2\sqrt u}$

Substitute: $u = x^2 - 5x +9$

$d' = \frac{2x - 5}{2\sqrt{x^2 - 5x + 9}}$

Next, is to minimize (by equating d' to 0)

$\frac{2x - 5}{2\sqrt{x^2 - 5x + 9}} = 0$

Cross Multiply

$2x - 5 = 0$

Solve for x

$2x =5$

$x = \frac{5}{2}$

Substitute $x = \frac{5}{2}$ in $y = \sqrt x$

$y = \sqrt{\frac{5}{2}}$

Split

$y = \frac{\sqrt 5}{\sqrt 2}$

Rationalize

$y = \frac{\sqrt 5}{\sqrt 2} * \frac{\sqrt 2}{\sqrt 2}$

$y = \frac{\sqrt {10}}{\sqrt 4}$

$y = \frac{\sqrt {10}}{2}$

Hence:

$(x,y) = (\frac{5}{2},\frac{\sqrt{10}}{2}})$

Two cars are traveling down the highway with the same speed. If the first car increases its speed by 1km/hr, and the other car d

Olegator [25]

Answer:

The speed of the cars is $32 \frac{km}{h}$

Step-by-step explanation:

First we must first have the clear concept that $speed=\frac{distance}{time}$ or $s=\frac{d}{t}$

Our question is the speed of the cars then the variable to clear will be s.

Let's raise the equation for each car taking into account that we have the following data:

Car 1: $s_{1}=s+1$ , $t_{1}=2$ and $d_{1}= d_{2}$

Car 1: $s_{2}=s-10$ , $t_{2}=3$ and $d_{1}= d_{2}$

The two cars travel the same distance so we will raise the distance formula for each car and then match them.

<em>Car 1</em>

$d_{1}=s_{1}*t_{1}$

$d_{1}=(s+1)*2$

$d_{1}=2s+2$

<em>Car 2</em>

$d_{2}=s_{2}*t_{2}$

$d_{2}=(s-10)*3$

$d_{2}=3s.30$

$d_{1}=d_{2}$

$2s+2=3s-30$

$2+30=3s-2s$

$32=s$

The speed of the cars is 32 km/hr

You will be brainliest please list correct answer and the mistake he made

anzhelika [568]

<em>Hey There!!</em>

<em>The answer is below!!</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

We move all terms to the left:

$-6n+22-(-4n+14-10n+22)=0$

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

$-6n-(-14n+36)+22=0$

We get rid of parentheses

$-6n+14n-36+22=0$

After that, We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

$8n-14=0$

Then, We move all terms containing n to the left, all other terms to the right

$8n=14$

$n=14/8$

$n=1+3/4$

<em>I don't know this is </em> $100$ % right....

$So.....GoodLuck!!$

# $Be$ $Bold$

# $Always$ $Brainly!$
