F(X) = 6/X

F(X) = 6 • 1/X

F(X) = 6 • x^-1

F(X) = 6x^-1

F'(X) = 6 • d(x^-1)/dx

F'(X) = 6 • -1x^-1-1

F'(X) = 6 • -1x^-2

F'(X) = -6x^-2

F'(X) = -6/x^2
F'(-2) = -6/(-2)^2
F'(-2) = -6/4
F'(-2) = -3/2

The solution would be C. -3/2.

8/f = 56/105 what is f?

svetlana [45]

8/15 = 56/105

This may be solved using proportion.
a/b = c/d
ad = bc where cross products are equal.

a = 8
b = f
c = 56
d = 105

ad = bc
8*105 = f*56
840 = 56f
840/56 = 56f/56
f = 15

56 ÷ 7 = 8
105 ÷ 7 = 15

Help me i hate word problems

VMariaS [17]

Is that all? My Algebra is freackin hard compared to this. Anyways, The way I understand this, is that we will have 3 (liters of water) +0.5 (half a liter of lemonade) =3.5 liters of liquid

so the question would be: how many times does fit into 3.5?

if you want to divide by a fraction, you need to multiply by the reverse of it.

so the answer is: 10 servings of lemonade ( and a little bit will be left over for half a serving).
Hope this helps!
