To solve this, we divide the price by the kilograms of peanuts.

4.5/5= 0.9

So therefore, our answer is that it costs $0.9 per can of peanuts.

hope this help you out

Find an equation of the tangent to the curve x =5+lnt, y=t2+5 at the point (5,6) by both eliminating the parameter and without e

svet-max [94.6K]

ANSWER

$y = 2x -4$

EXPLANATION

Part a)

Eliminating the parameter:

The parametric equation is

$x = 5 + ln(t)$

$y = {t}^{2} + 5$

From the first equation we make t the subject to get;

$x - 5 = ln(t)$

$t = {e}^{x - 5}$

We put it into the second equation.

$y = { ({e}^{x - 5}) }^{2} + 5$

$y = { ({e}^{2(x - 5)}) } + 5$

We differentiate to get;

$\frac{dy}{dx} = 2 {e}^{2(x - 5)}$

At x=5,

$\frac{dy}{dx} = 2 {e}^{2(5 - 5)}$

$\frac{dy}{dx} = 2 {e}^{0} = 2$

The slope of the tangent is 2.

The equation of the tangent through

(5,6) is given by

$y-y_1=m(x-x_1)$

$y - 6 = 2(x - 5)$

$y = 2x - 10 + 6$

$y = 2x -4$

Without eliminating the parameter,

$\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{ \frac{dy}{dt} }{ \frac{dx}{dt} }$

$\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{ 2t}{ \frac{1}{t} }$

$\frac{dy}{dx} = 2 {t}^{2}$

At x=5,

$5 = 5 + ln(t)$

$ln(t) = 0$

$t = {e}^{0} = 1$

This implies that,

$\frac{dy}{dx} = 2 {(1)}^{2} = 2$

The slope of the tangent is 2.

The equation of the tangent through

(5,6) is given by

$y-y_1=m(x-x_1)$

$y - 6 = 2(x - 5) =$

$y = 2x -4$

458 students went on a school field trip. Ten buses were filled, and 8 students traveled in cars. How many students were on each

RoseWind [281]

8 students traveled in cars, which means that 450 students traveled by bus.
Since there were 10 buses, just divide the number of students by the number of buses.
450 / 10 = 45
There were B. 45 students on each bus.
