First we subtract x values of points A and B
|3-6| = 3

now because the ration is 2:3 we need to divide that distance with 5 (sum of ratio numbers)
3/5

The result we multiply by 2 and add to x value of point A because that is the order of our ration (AC/BC)

2*3/5+3 = 4.2

Answer is 4.2

Calculus help with the graph of a integral and finding the following components.
lys-0071 [83]
A)

\bf \displaystyle F(x)=\int\limits_{4}^{\sqrt{x}}\cfrac{2t-1}{t+2}\cdot dt\qquad x=16\implies \displaystyle F(x)=\int\limits_{4}^{\sqrt{16}}\cfrac{2t-1}{t+2}\cdot dt&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\displaystyle F(x)=\int\limits_{4}^{4}\cfrac{2t-1}{t+2}\cdot dt\implies 0&#10;

why is 0?  well, the bounds are the same.


b)

let's use the second fundamental theorem of calculus, where F'(x) = dF/du * du/dx

\bf \displaystyle F(x)=\int\limits_{4}^{\sqrt{x}}\cfrac{2t-1}{t+2}\cdot dt\implies F(x)=\int\limits_{4}^{x^{\frac{1}{2}}}\cfrac{2t-1}{t+2}\cdot dt\\\\&#10;-------------------------------\\\\&#10;u=x^{\frac{1}{2}}\implies \cfrac{du}{dx}=\cfrac{1}{2}\cdot x^{-\frac{1}{2}}\implies \cfrac{du}{dx}=\cfrac{1}{2\sqrt{x}}\\\\&#10;-------------------------------\\\\

\bf \displaystyle F(x)=\int\limits_{4}^{u}\cfrac{2t-1}{t+2}\cdot dt\qquad F'(x)=\cfrac{dF}{du}\cdot \cfrac{du}{dx}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\displaystyle\cfrac{d}{du}\left[ \int\limits_{4}^{u}\cfrac{2t-1}{t+2}\cdot dt \right]\cdot \cfrac{du}{dx}\implies \cfrac{2u-1}{u+2}\cdot \cfrac{1}{2\sqrt{x}}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\cfrac{2\sqrt{x}}{\sqrt{x}+2}\cdot \cfrac{1}{2\sqrt{x}}\implies \cfrac{2\sqrt{x}-1}{2x+4\sqrt{x}}


c)

we know x = 16, we also know from section a) that at that point f(x) = y = 0, so the point is at (16, 0), using section b) let's get the slope,

\bf \left. \cfrac{2\sqrt{x}-1}{2x+4\sqrt{x}} \right|_{x=16}\implies \cfrac{2\sqrt{16}-1}{2(16)+4\sqrt{16}} \implies \cfrac{7}{48}\\\\&#10;-------------------------------\\\\&#10;\begin{cases}&#10;x=16\\&#10;y=0\\&#10;m=\frac{7}{48}&#10;\end{cases}\implies \stackrel{\textit{point-slope form}}{y- y_1= m(x- x_1)}\implies y-0=\cfrac{7}{48}(x-16)&#10;\\\\\\&#10;y=\cfrac{7}{48}x-\cfrac{7}{3}\implies y=\cfrac{7}{48}x-2\frac{1}{3}


d)

\bf 0=\cfrac{2\sqrt{x}-1}{2x+4\sqrt{x}}\implies 0=\cfrac{2\sqrt{x}-1}{(\sqrt{x}+2)(2\sqrt{x})}

now, we can get critical points from zeroing out the derivative, we also get critical points from zeroing out the denominator, however, the ones from the denominator are points where the function is not differentiable, namely, is not a smooth curve, is a sharp jump, a cusp, or a spike, and therefore those points are usually asymptotic, however, they're valid critical points, let's check both,

\bf 0=\cfrac{2\sqrt{x}-1}{2x+4\sqrt{x}}\implies 0=\cfrac{2\sqrt{x}-1}{(\sqrt{x}+2)(2\sqrt{x})}\\\\&#10;-------------------------------\\\\&#10;0=2\sqrt{x}-1\implies 1=2\sqrt{x}\implies \cfrac{1}{2}=\sqrt{x}\implies \left(\cfrac{1}{2}  \right)^2=x&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\boxed{\cfrac{1}{4}=x}\\\\&#10;-------------------------------\\\\&#10;0=(\sqrt{x}+2)(2\sqrt{x})\implies 0=2\sqrt{x}\implies \boxed{0=x}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;0=\sqrt{x}+2\implies -2=\sqrt{x}\implies (-2)^2=x\implies \boxed{4=x}

now, doing a first-derivative test on those regions, we get the values as in the picture below.

so, you can see where is increasing and decreasing.

Which of the following tables can be represented by the equation y = 12x
murzikaleks [220]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

So from 36 to 60 is add 24 and for 3 to 5 is add 2 so that gave u 24/2 that is = 12 and u do ur Y=MX+B 36=(12)(3)+b = 36=36+b then u subtract 36 = to 0 so B=0 and that how u get Y=12x.
