Answer:8tan(30)

Step-by-step explanation:

It is right angle triangle. The given data includes angle 30 and the side "b" infront i.e. perpendicular and the base 8ft.

So tan(30)=b/8

Answer:

$f'(x)=-\frac{2}{x^\frac{3}{2}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

So we have the function:

$f(x)=\frac{4}{\sqrt x}$

And we want to find the derivative using the limit process.

The definition of a derivative as a limit is:

$\lim_{h \to 0} \frac{f(x+h)-f(x)}{h}$

Therefore, our derivative would be:

$\lim_{h \to 0}\frac{\frac{4}{\sqrt{x+h}}-\frac{4}{\sqrt x}}{h}$

First of all, let's factor out a 4 from the numerator and place it in front of our limit:

$=\lim_{h \to 0}\frac{4(\frac{1}{\sqrt{x+h}}-\frac{1}{\sqrt x})}{h}$

Place the 4 in front:

$=4\lim_{h \to 0}\frac{\frac{1}{\sqrt{x+h}}-\frac{1}{\sqrt x}}{h}$

Now, let's multiply everything by (√(x+h)(√(x))) to get rid of the fractions in the denominator. Therefore:

$=4\lim_{h \to 0}\frac{\frac{1}{\sqrt{x+h}}-\frac{1}{\sqrt x}}{h}(\frac{\sqrt{x+h}\sqrt x}{\sqrt{x+h}\sqrt x})$

Distribute:

$=4\lim_{h \to 0}\frac{({\sqrt{x+h}\sqrt x})\frac{1}{\sqrt{x+h}}-(\sqrt{x+h}\sqrt x)\frac{1}{\sqrt x}}{h({\sqrt{x+h}\sqrt x})}$

Simplify: For the first term on the left, the √(x+h) cancels. For the term on the right, the (√(x)) cancel. Thus:

$=4 \lim_{h\to 0}\frac{\sqrt x-(\sqrt{x+h})}{h(\sqrt{x+h}\sqrt{x}) }$

Now, multiply both sides by the conjugate of the numerator. In other words, multiply by (√x + √(x+h)). Thus:

$= 4\lim_{h\to 0}\frac{\sqrt x-(\sqrt{x+h})}{h(\sqrt{x+h}\sqrt{x}) }(\frac{\sqrt x +\sqrt{x+h})}{\sqrt x +\sqrt{x+h})}$

The numerator will use the difference of two squares. Thus:

$=4 \lim_{h \to 0} \frac{x-(x+h)}{h(\sqrt{x+h}\sqrt x)(\sqrt x+\sqrt{x+h})}$

Simplify the numerator:

$=4 \lim_{h \to 0} \frac{x-x-h}{h(\sqrt{x+h}\sqrt x)(\sqrt x+\sqrt{x+h})}\\=4 \lim_{h \to 0} \frac{-h}{h(\sqrt{x+h}\sqrt x)(\sqrt x+\sqrt{x+h})}$

Both the numerator and denominator have a h. Cancel them:

$=4 \lim_{h \to 0} \frac{-1}{(\sqrt{x+h}\sqrt x)(\sqrt x+\sqrt{x+h})}$

Now, substitute 0 for h. So:

$=4 ( \frac{-1}{(\sqrt{x+0}\sqrt x)(\sqrt x+\sqrt{x+0})})$

Simplify:

$=4( \frac{-1}{(\sqrt{x}\sqrt x)(\sqrt x+\sqrt{x})})$

(√x)(√x) is just x. (√x)+(√x) is just 2(√x). Therefore:

$=4( \frac{-1}{(x)(2\sqrt{x})})$

Multiply across:

$= \frac{-4}{(2x\sqrt{x})}$

Reduce. Change √x to x^(1/2). So:

$=-\frac{2}{x(x^{\frac{1}{2}})}$

Add the exponents:

$=-\frac{2}{x^\frac{3}{2}}$

And we're done!

$f(x)=\frac{4}{\sqrt x}\\f'(x)=-\frac{2}{x^\frac{3}{2}}$

I need help filling the boxes<br><br>please i need it asap

Answer:

m = 3/2

b = 0

y = 3/2x

Step-by-step explanation:

M is the slope, which is the rise/run of a line.

Using this, we know m is 3/2.

B is the y-intercept, which is where the line crosses the y-axis. In this case, B equals 0.

We use this information to put together our final equation of y= 3/2x (since B equals 0, there is no + or - after the slope)

What is the measure of angle C, to the nearest degree? (Image Attached)

worty [1.4K]

Answer: (B) - 43°
Explanation: Using the sine rule, we can say that sinA/BC = sinC/AB
sin(61)/45 = sin(C)/35
sin(C) = 35sin(61)/45

sin(C) ≈ 0.680259772....
C = arcsin(0.680259772...)

C = 42.8639459...
C ≈ 43°
