Two numbers that multiply to -2 could be

-1 and 2

Or

-2 and 1.

Since -1+2=1, -1 and 2 are the numbers you are looking for.

Hope this helps!

2 and -1 because 2*(-1) = -2 and 2-1 = 1

The graphs of the function f (given in blue) and g (given in red) are plotted above. Suppose that u(x)=f(x)g(x) and v(x)=f(x)/g(

Rus_ich [418]

U(x) = f(x).(gx)
v(x) = f(x) / g(x)

Use chain rule to find u(x) and v(x).

u '(x) = f '(x) g(x) + f(x) g'(x)

v ' (x) = [f '(x) g(x) - f(x) g(x)] / [g(x)]^2

The functions given are piecewise.

You need to use the pieces that include the point x = 1.

You can calculate f '(x) and g '(x) at x =1, as the slopes of the lines that define each function.

And the slopes can be calculated graphycally as run / rise of each graph, around the given point.

f '(x) = slope of f (x); at x = 1, f '(1) = run / rise = 1/1 = 1

g '(x) = slope of g(x); at x = 1, g '(1) = run / rise = 1.5/ 1 = 1.5

You also need f (1) = 1 and g(1) = 2

Then:

u '(1) = f '(1) g(1) + f(1) g'(1) = 1*2 + 1*1.5 = 2 + 1.5 = 3.5

v ' (x) = [f '(1) g(1) - f(1) g(1)] / [g(1)]^2 = [1*2 - 1*1.5] / (2)^2 = [2-1.5]/4 =

= 0.5/4 = 0.125

Answers:
u '(1) = 3.5
v '(1) = 0.125

john read the first 114 pages of a novel which is 3 pages less than 1/3 of the novel. write the equation

tatyana61 [14]

The equation is:

$114=\frac{p}{3}-3$

And

Total number of pages are 351

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation has to be formed by using the given information.

Let p be the total number of pages in the novel

Then

1/3rd of the p will pe:

$\frac{p}{3}$

Total pages read by John = 114

Then according to the statement

$114=\frac{p}{3}-3$

We can solve the equation to get the total pages of the novel

$114=\frac{p}{3}-3\\Adding\ 3\ on\ both\ sides\\114+3=\frac{p}{3}-3+3\\117=\frac{p}{3}\\Multiplying\ both\ sides\ by\ 3\\3*117 = \frac{p}{3}*3\\p=351$
