You could do the question the way it is  written, but it is far easier to bring the negative power up to the numerator.

y= x^2 - 3. The derivative of that is
dy/dx = 2x The three is a constant and is always dropped when a derivative is taken
d(-3)/dx = 0

If you are a purist and want to solve the question the way it is written, you could do it this way.

dy/dx = d(1)/dx x^-2 - d(x^-2)/dx * 1
             ======================                    
                          (x^-2)^2

dy/dx =  - (-2 x^ - 3) / x^-4

dy/dx = 2 x^-3 * x^4
dy/dx = 2 x^(-3 + 4)
dy/dx = 2x ^ 1
dy/dx = 2x <<<<< answer

There is 5/6 of an apple pie left from dinner. Tomorrow, Victor plans to eat 1/6 of the pie that was left. How much of the whole
Lady_Fox [76]
5/6 = 83% 
1/6= 16%

83% of the apple pie was left from dinner. 
Victor is gonna eat 16% of the pie tomorrow 
You have to subtract 16% from 83%
In other words 5/6-1/6


The denominators are same so you don't have to do anything to them  
5/6 - 1/6 

5-1=4

4/6 of the pie would be left 
In simplest form it would be 

4/6     <span> ÷2</span>
=2/3

2/3 is in simplest form

Answer:

x³-9x²+14x+24

Step-by-step explanation:

here given : 4, -1, 6

so put negative value of each digit in the equation

(x-4)(x+1)(x-6)

(x²-4x+x-4)(x-6)

(x²-3x-4)(x-6)

(x³-3x²-4x-6x²+18x+24)

x³-9x²+14x+24

A rectangular piece of metal is 25 in longer than it is wide. Squares with sides 5 in long are cut from the four corners and the
Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

The original length was 41 inches and the original width was 16 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> the original length of the piece of​ metal

y ----> the original width of the piece of​ metal

we know that

When squares with sides 5 in long are cut from the four corners and the flaps are folded upward to form an open box

The dimensions of the box are

L=(x-10)\ in\\W=(y-10)\ in\\H=5\ in

The volume of the box is equal to

V=(x-10)(y-10)5

V=930\ in^3

so

930=(x-10)(y-10)5

simplify

186=(x-10)(y-10) -----> equation A

Remember that

The piece of metal is 25 in longer than it is wide

so

x=y+25 ----> equation B

substitute equation B in equation A

186=(y+25-10)(y-10)

solve for y

186=(y+15)(y-10)\\186=y^2-10y+15y-150\\y^2+5y-336=0

Solve the quadratic equation by graphing

using a graphing tool

The solution is y=16

see the attached figure

Find the value of x

x=16+25=41

therefore

The original length was 41 inches and the original width was 16 inches
