Dean had already read 1 book this year before joining a book club, and he plans to read 1 book every month now that he has joine

d. If Dean has read 9 books so far, how many months has he been with his book club? Write and solve an equation to find the answer.

<em>b</em><em> </em>for <em>books</em><em> </em>read. b=1x + 1. the amount of months he's been in the club goes for x and +1 because he already read a book before he joined. if you do easy math, he's been there for 8 months because he read 9 books. i probably got the equation backwards but this works both ways imo.

What is the difference between a triangular number and a cube number?
pav-90 [236]
A cube number is an integer which is a third power of another integer.

A triangular number is a number that counts the objects that can form equilateral triangle (sorry, I cribbed it a little from Wikipedia; it's difficult to explain). Just look at the picture.

Find the point on the parabola y^2 = 4x that is closest to the point (2, 8).
guapka [62]

Answer:

(4, 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

There are a couple of ways to go at this:

  1. Write an expression for the distance from a point on the parabola to the given point, then differentiate that and set the derivative to zero.
  2. Find the equation of a normal line to the parabola that goes through the given point.

1. The distance formula tells us for some point (x, y) on the parabola, the distance d satisfies ...

... d² = (x -2)² +(y -8)² . . . . . . . the y in this equation is a function of x

Differentiating with respect to x and setting dd/dx=0, we have ...

... 2d(dd/dx) = 0 = 2(x -2) +2(y -8)(dy/dx)

We can factor 2 from this to get

... 0 = x -2 +(y -8)(dy/dx)

Differentiating the parabola's equation, we find ...

... 2y(dy/dx) = 4

... dy/dx = 2/y

Substituting for x (=y²/4) and dy/dx into our derivative equation above, we get

... 0 = y²/4 -2 +(y -8)(2/y) = y²/4 -16/y

... 64 = y³ . . . . . . multiply by 4y, add 64

... 4 = y . . . . . . . . cube root

... y²/4 = 16/4 = x = 4

_____

2. The derivative above tells us the slope at point (x, y) on the parabola is ...

... dy/dx = 2/y

Then the slope of the normal line at that point is ...

... -1/(dy/dx) = -y/2

The normal line through the point (2, 8) will have equation (in point-slope form) ...

... y - 8 = (-y/2)(x -2)

Substituting for x using the equation of the parabola, we get

... y - 8 = (-y/2)(y²/4 -2)

Multiplying by 8 gives ...

... 8y -64 = -y³ +8y

... y³ = 64 . . . . subtract 8y, multiply by -1

... y = 4 . . . . . . cube root

... x = y²/4 = 4

The point on the parabola that is closest to the point (2, 8) is (4, 4).
