25 feet above sea level means she travelled 25 feet to the surface of the sea. She would have to descend (37-25=12) 12 more feet to achieve 37 total feet of travel, so she descended 12 feet below sea level.
By "y = −9x2 − 2x" I assume you meant <span>y = −9x^2 − 2x (the "^" symbol represents exponentiation).
Let's find the first derivative of y with respect to x: dy/dx = -18x - 2. This is equivalent to the slope of the tangent line to the (parabolic) curve. Now let this derivative (slope) = 0 and solve for the critical value: -18x - 2 = 0, or
-18x = 2. Solving for x, x = -2/18, or x = -1/9.
When x = -1/9, y = -9(-1/9)^2 - 2(-1/9). This simplifies to y = -9/9 + 2/9, or
y = -7/9.
The only point at which the tangent to the curve is horiz. is (-1/9,-7/9).</span>
Answer:
5
Step-by-step explanation:
Hello There!
The mean is pretty much the average
So to find the mean we first add up all of the values
2+3+6+6+7+8+8=40
Then we count the amount of points
There are 8 points
our final step is to divide the total value by the total number of points
40/8=5
so the mean (average) would be 5
Your answer is 19 I think
Hi Jujub! To find the answer in lowest terms, first you have to find the lowest common denominator. To find this, find the lowest common multiple of 75 and 125, which is 375. Now, to make the common denominator, you have to make equivalent fractions. 375 ÷ 75 = 5, and 5 × 25 = 125. So the new fraction is 125/375. Now the same thing for 25/125. 375 ÷ 125 = 3, and 3 × 25 is 75. So the new fraction is 75/375. Now add the new fractions:
125/375 + 75/375 = 200/375
This answer can be simplified to 8/15.
