y2-y1 / x2-x1 is how to get slop3 for 2 points (x1,y1) and (x2, y2). So 4-1 / 2-0 and the slope is 3/2. If this is right could you possibly give me brainliest? Hope this helped.

Kenya is solving the equation 5 3/4 - 1/6x = 4 1/2. She gets to 1 1/4 = 1/6x. Is this a valid way to solve the equation? answer

Alona [7]

Answer:

15/2

Step-by-step explanation:

5 3/4 - 1/6x = 4 1/2

move the variable to it's own side.

5 3/4 - 4 1/2 = 1/6x

change the subtracting side to have common denominators

5 3/4 - 4 2/4 = 1/6x

1 1/4 = 1/6 x

divide both sides by 1/6, same thing as multiplying both sides by 6 (reciprocal)

30/4 = x

reduce: 15/2 = x

3. If 3, x, y, 18, are in arithmetic progression, (A, P) find the value of x and y

Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

Below in bold

Step-by-step explanation:

The sequence is:

3, x, y, 18

If this is an A P then

x - 3 = y - x

2x - y = 3 (A) and

y - x = 18 - y

2y - x = 18 (B)

Multiply (A) by 2:

4x - 2y = 6 (C)

Adding B and C:

3x = 24

x = 8.

and

2y - 8 = 18

2y = 26

y = 13.

So x = 8 and y = 13.

b) ar + ar^2 = 6ar^3 where a = first term and r = common ratio

Divide by a:

r + r^2 = 6r^3

6r^3 - r^2 - r = 0

r(6r^2 - r - 1) = 0

r(3r + 1)(2r - 1) = 0

So the 2 possible values of r

= -1/3 and 1/2.

i) The common ratio is positive so it must be 1/2.

Second term ar = 8

1/2 a = 8

a = 16.

So the first 6 terms are:

16, 8, 4, 2, 1, 1/2.

Find the second partial derivatives of the following functions

artcher [175]

(a) z = 3x ² - 4xy + 15y ²

has first-order partial derivatives

∂z/∂x = 6x - 4y

∂z/∂y = -4x + 30y

and thus second-order partial derivatives

∂²z/∂x ² = 6

∂²z/∂x∂y = -4

∂²z/∂y∂x = -4

∂²z/∂y ² = 30

where ∂²z/∂x∂y = ∂/∂x [∂z/∂y] and ∂²z/∂y∂x = ∂/∂y [∂z/∂x].

(b) z = 4x eʸ

∂z/∂x = 4eʸ

∂z/∂y = 4x eʸ

∂²z/∂x ² = 0

∂²z/∂x∂y = 4eʸ

∂²z/∂y∂x = 4eʸ

∂²z/∂y ² = 4x eʸ

(c) z = 6x ln(y)

∂z/∂x = 6 ln(y)

∂z/∂y = 6x/y

∂²z/∂x ² = 0

∂²z/∂x∂y = 6/y

∂²z/∂y∂x = 6/y

∂²z/∂y ² = -6x/y ²

A bag contains blue marbles and red marbles, 107 in total. The number of blue marbles is 7 more than 4 times the number of red m

Alecsey [184]

Answer: blue= 93.625

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the red ball be y

Four times of red is 4y

And blue is seven times of red which means 7(4y)

4y+7(4y)=107

Open the bracket

4y+28y=107

32y=107

y=107/32

Make y the subject of formula

y=3.34

Therefore,blue is

7(4(3.34))

Blue= 93.625
