WARRIOR [948]3 years ago

Margie would take 1 hour and 30 minutes to write 1 page of her research paper. Think of it like a proportion:

2.25/ 1.5 = x/1

2.25 is the 2 1/4 converted which is the amount of hours she took.

1.5 is the 1 1/2 converted which are the amount of pages she wrote total.

1 on the right side of the proportion represents  1 page.

And x are the amount of hours used  to write 1 page.

And in solving that proportion  it would result in 1.5 or 1hr. and 30 min.

What is 3=7(4 - 2u)-6u
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

u = 5/4

Step-by-step explanation:

to evaluate for the value of u we would simply open the bracket and then evaluate for the value of u by collecting the like terms together.

solution

3=7(4 - 2u)-6u

3 = 28- 14u - 6u

collect the like terms

3 + 14u + 6u = 28

20u = 28 - 3

20u = 25

divide both sides by the coefficient of u which is 20

20u/20 = 25/20

u = 5/4

Suppose u and v are functions of x that are differentiable at x=0 and that u(0)= 7,u'(0)=-5,v(0)= -1, v'(0)= -4.
andriy [413]

This question is incomplete, the complete question is;

Suppose u and v are functions of x that are differentiable at x=0

and that { u(0) = 7, u'(0) = -5 }  { v(0)= -1, v'(0) = -4 }

Find the values of the following derivatives at x = 0.

a) \frac{d}{dx}( uv )

b)  \frac{d}{dx}( \frac{u}{v} )

c)  \frac{d}{dx}( \frac{v}{u} )

Answer:

a) \frac{d}{dx}( uv ) = -23  

b) \frac{d}{dx}( \frac{u}{v} )  = 33

c) \frac{d}{dx}( \frac{v}{u} ) = -32/49 or - 0.6531

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that;

{ u(0) = 7, u'(0) = -5 }  { v(0)= -1, v'(0) = -4 }

a)

\frac{d}{dx}( uv )

we differentiate

\frac{d}{dx}( uv )  = uv' + vu'

at x = (0), we substitute our values

\frac{d}{dx}( uv ) = ( 7 × -4 ) + ( -1 × -5)

\frac{d}{dx}( uv )  = -28 + 5

\frac{d}{dx}( uv ) = -23  

b)

\frac{d}{dx}( \frac{u}{v} )

we differentiate

\frac{d}{dx}( \frac{u}{v} ) = ( vu' - uv' ) / v²

at x=0, we substitute our values

\frac{d}{dx}( \frac{u}{v} ) = ( (-1 × -5) - (7 × -4 ) ) / (-1)²

\frac{d}{dx}( \frac{u}{v} ) = (( 5 - ( -28 )) / 1

\frac{d}{dx}( \frac{u}{v} )  = 33 / 1

\frac{d}{dx}( \frac{u}{v} )  = 33

c) \frac{d}{dx}( \frac{v}{u} )

we differentiate

\frac{d}{dx}( \frac{v}{u} )  = ( uv' - vu' ) / u²

at x=0, we substitute our values

\frac{d}{dx}( \frac{v}{u} )  = ( (7 × -4) - (-1 × -4) ) / (7)²

\frac{d}{dx}( \frac{v}{u} ) = ( -28 - ( 4 ) ) / 49

\frac{d}{dx}( \frac{v}{u} )  = ( -28 - 4 ) /49

\frac{d}{dx}( \frac{v}{u} )  = -32 / 49

\frac{d}{dx}( \frac{v}{u} ) = -32/49 or - 0.6531
