Kevin's work for deriving the equation of a circle is shown below. x2 + 4x = −(y2 − 20) step 1 x2 + 4x = −y2 + 20 step 2 x2 + 4x

+ 4 = −y2 + 20 − 4 step 3 (x + 2)2 = −y2 + 20 − 4 step 4 (x + 2)2 + y2 = 16 in which step did he make an error in his work

We have the following equation:
 x2 + 4x = - (y2 - 20)
 Let's review step by step:
 step 1:
 
x2 + 4x = -y2 + 20
 Answer: OK
 step 2:
 
x2 + 4x + 4 = -y2 + 20 - 4
 Answer: Wrong
 The correct step is:
 x2 + 4x - 4 = -y2 + 20 - 4
 Or equivalently:
 x2 + 4x + 4 = -y2 + 20 + 4
 Answer:
 
he did make an error in his work in step 2

Find the dimensions of a rectangle with perimeter 76 m whose area is as large as possible. m (smaller value) m (larger value)
Sladkaya [172]

Answer:

19 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter = 2(length + width) ; P = 2(l+w) - - (1)

Area = Length * width ; A = l*w - - - (2)

76 = 2(l+w)

76/2 = l+w

l+w = 38

l = 38 - w

Put l = 38 - w in (1)

A = (38-w)*w

A = 38w - w²

At maximum point:

dA/dw = 0

dA/dw = 38 - 2w

38 - 2w = 0

38 = 2w

w = 38/2

w = 19

AURORKA [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

slope=(-2-2)/(-2-6)=-4/-8=1/2

eq. of line is

y-2=1/2(x-6)

2y-4=x-6

2y=x-6+4

2y=x-2

or y=1/2x-1

Rewrite the expression as an algebraic expression in x. <br> cos(tan−1 x)
zhenek [66]
It's hard to type and hard to read the "inverse tangent" function, as you've seen (above).

So, use "arctan x" instead.

Then the problem becomes:  "differentiate cos (arctan x)."

You must apply first the rule for differentiating the cosine function, and next apply the rule for differentiating the arctan function:

(d/dx) cos (arctan x) = - sin (arctan x) * [1/(1+x^2)]

Test for the commutative property of union and intersection of the sets P = { x : x is all real numbers between 2 and 7} and Q =
In-s [12.5K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

P = {x : x is a real number between 2 and 7}

{x: 3,4,5,6}

Q = {x : x is all rational number between 2 and 7}

{4 }

We know that P contains all the rational numbers between 2 and 7.

And P ∪ Q and Q ∪ P each of them contain all the real numbers which are between 2 and 7.

{3,4,5,6}

Here Q is the proper subset of P

P ∩ Q = Q ∩ P = Q= {4}
