Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

When you have an equation like that, all you have to do is draw a line at the y-value given. In our case, y = -4 is a horizontal line. Graph paper is made of many intersecting lines. From the x-axis (should be a big black line that moves left to right), move down four lines. Once you get to the fourth line, trace the line from left to right. Put some points at the y-value of -4 (for example (-1, -4)) if it helps you straighten the line.

Some lines may be vertical and move up and down. Those lines have an x instead of a y (x=3, x= -12, etc.). Fortunately, these lines, both vertical and horizontal, are a lot easier to draw than other equations.

An equilateral triangle has perimeter P. The length of one side is P/3. Which expression is equivalent to the length on one side

irina1246 [14]

Answer: $3\times \dfrac{P}{3}=P$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The perimeter of one equilateral triangle is P

The lengths of the equilateral triangle are equal

Suppose x is the length of each side

$\therefore 3\times x=P\\\\\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{P}{3}$

i.e.

$\Rightarrow 3\times \dfrac{P}{3}=P$

Consider the following differential equation. x^2y' + xy = 3 (a) Show that every member of the family of functions y = (3ln(x) +

Veronika [31]

Answer:

Verified

$y(x) = \frac{3Ln(x) + 3}{x}$

$y(x) = \frac{3Ln(x) + 3 - 3Ln(3)}{x}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Question:-

- We are given the following non-homogeneous ODE as follows:

$x^2y' +xy = 3$

- A general solution to the above ODE is also given as:

$y = \frac{3Ln(x) + C }{x}$

- We are to prove that every member of the family of curves defined by the above given function ( y ) is indeed a solution to the given ODE.

Solution:-

- To determine the validity of the solution we will first compute the first derivative of the given function ( y ) as follows. Apply the quotient rule.

$y' = \frac{\frac{d}{dx}( 3Ln(x) + C ) . x - ( 3Ln(x) + C ) . \frac{d}{dx} (x) }{x^2} \\\\y' = \frac{\frac{3}{x}.x - ( 3Ln(x) + C ).(1)}{x^2} \\\\y' = - \frac{3Ln(x) + C - 3}{x^2}$

- Now we will plug in the evaluated first derivative ( y' ) and function ( y ) into the given ODE and prove that right hand side is equal to the left hand side of the equality as follows:

$-\frac{3Ln(x) + C - 3}{x^2}.x^2 + \frac{3Ln(x) + C}{x}.x = 3\\\\-3Ln(x) - C + 3 + 3Ln(x) + C= 3\\\\3 = 3$

- The equality holds true for all values of " C "; hence, the function ( y ) is the general solution to the given ODE.

- To determine the complete solution subjected to the initial conditions y (1) = 3. We would need the evaluate the value of constant ( C ) such that the solution ( y ) is satisfied as follows:

$y( 1 ) = \frac{3Ln(1) + C }{1} = 3\\\\0 + C = 3, C = 3$

- Therefore, the complete solution to the given ODE can be expressed as:

$y ( x ) = \frac{3Ln(x) + 3 }{x}$

- To determine the complete solution subjected to the initial conditions y (3) = 1. We would need the evaluate the value of constant ( C ) such that the solution ( y ) is satisfied as follows:

$y(3) = \frac{3Ln(3) + C}{3} = 1\\\\y(3) = 3Ln(3) + C = 3\\\\C = 3 - 3Ln(3)$
