Answer:

11/20

Step-by-step explanation:

At the beginning, the number of marbles in the box are:

10 green marbles

11 white marbles

The first marble chosen is green, and then it is not replaced in the box. Therefore, the number of green marbles left in the box is 9.

Therefore, the total number of marbles left in the box is:

n=9+11=20

Now we want to find the probability to choose a white marble. The number of white marble is

w=11

Therefore, the probability of choosing a white marble is:

p(w)=\frac{w}{n}=\frac{11}{20}

Verify that the given point is on the curve and find the lines that are (a) tangent and (b) normal to the curve at the given poi
lara [203]

For each curve, plug in the given point (x,y) and check if the equality holds. For example:

(I) (2, 3) does lie on x^2+xy-y^2=1 since 2^2 + 2*3 - 3^2 = 4 + 6 - 9 = 1.

For part (a), compute the derivative \frac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}, and evaluate it for the given point (x,y). This is the slope of the tangent line at the point. For example:

(I) The derivative is

x^2+xy-y^2=1\overset{\frac{\mathrm d}{\mathrm dx}}{\implies}2x+x\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}+y-2y\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}=0\implies\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}=\dfrac{2x+y}{2y-x}

so the slope of the tangent at (2, 3) is

\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}(2,3)=\dfrac74

and its equation is then

y-3=\dfrac74(x-2)\implies y=\dfrac74x-\dfrac12

For part (b), recall that normal lines are perpendicular to tangent lines, so their slopes are negative reciprocals of the slopes of the tangents, -\frac1{\frac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}}. For example:

(I) The tangent has slope 7/4, so the normal has slope -4/7. Then the normal line has equation

y-3=-\dfrac47(x-2)\implies y=-\dfrac47x+\dfrac{29}7

Answer:

x=-2500

Step-by-step explanation:

\sqrt{-4x} =100\\\\(\sqrt{-4x})^2=100^2\\\\-4x=10,000\\\\x=-\frac{10000}{4}\\\\x=-2500
