Answer:

  -5

Step-by-step explanation:

The power rule can be used.

  f(x) = 5x^-1

  f'(x) = 5(-1)x^(-1-1)

  f'(x) = -5x^-2

Then ...

  f'(-1) = -5(-1)^-2

  f'(-1) = -5

_____

The attached graph shows the value of the derivative at x=-1, along with a tangent line having that slope at the point (-1, f(-1)).

The regular price of a dvd is $24?. During a sale, the price of a dvd is marked down 30%. What will the sale price of the dvd?
Tatiana [17]

If a $24 dvd is marked down by 30% then the cost of the dvd would be 70% of the original cost. 100% - 30% = 70%

70% of 24 can be expressed as 0.7 x 24.

The answer is $16.80.

Hope this helps :)

Frankie is practicing for a 5 km race is normal time is 31 minutes 17 seconds yesterday it's a king only 29 minutes 49 seconds h
Rzqust [24]

Answer: He was 1 minute 28 seconds faster.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we simply have to subtract Frankie's time yesterday (29 minutes 49 seconds) to his normal time (31 minutes 17 seconds)  

Mathematically speaking:  

31m 17s - 29m 49s =

(31m-29 m) (17s-49s)=

2m -32s=

1m 60s -32s=

1m 28s

He was 1 minute 28 seconds faster.
