This is quite a complex problem. I wrote out a really nice solution but I can't work out how to put it on the website as the app is very poorly made. Still, I'll just have to type it all in...
Okay so you need to use a technique called logarithmic differentiation. It seems quite unnatural to start with but the result is very impressive.
Let y = (x+8)^(3x)
Take the natural log of both sides:
ln(y) = ln((x+8)^(3x))
By laws of logarithms, this can be rearranged:
ln(y) = 3xln(x+8)
Next, differentiate both sides. By implicit differentiation:
d/dx(ln(y)) = 1/y dy/dx
The right hand side is harder to differentiate. Using the substitution u = 3x and v = ln(x+8):
d/dx(3xln(x+8)) = d/dx(uv)
du/dx = 3
Finding dv/dx is harder, and involves the chain rule. Let a = x+ 8:
v = ln(a)
da/dx = 1
dv/da = 1/a
By chain rule:
dv/dx = dv/da * da/dx = 1/a = 1/(x+8)
Finally, use the product rule:
d/dx(uv) = u * dv/dx + v * du/dx = 3x/(x+8) + 3ln(x+8)
This overall produces the equation:
1/y * dy/dx = 3x/(x+8) + 3ln(x+8)
We want to solve for dy/dx, achievable by multiplying both sides by y:
dy/dx = y(3x/(x+8) + 3ln(x+8))
Since we know y = (x+8)^(3x):
dy/dx = ((x+8)^(3x))(3x/(x+8) + 3ln(x+8))
Neatening this up a bit, we factorise out 3/(x+8):
dy/dx = (3(x+8)^(3x-1))(x + (x+8)ln(x+8))
Well wasn't that a marathon? It's a nightmare typing that in, I hope you can follow all the steps.
I hope this helped you :)
Answer:
y = -5x - 21
Step-by-step explanation:
Given in the question,
equation of a parallel line
y = -5x + 6
point through which it passes
(-4,-1)
Step1
Find the gradient of the equation given, as it is parallel so it will have same gradient
equation of straight line
y = mx + c
where m is gradient
c is y intercept
y = -5x + 6
m =-5
Step2
Find y-intercept
-1 = -5(-4) + c
-1 = 20 + c
c = -20 - 1
c = -21
Step3
form the equation
y = -5x - 21

Answer:
484.84
Step-by-step explanation:
(80/16.5)x100=484.84
I know
as a decimal is 0.7777778 and I know
as a decimal is 0.88889. Which one is bigger? 0.7778 or 0.8889. 0.8889 is bigger so your answer is 7/9<8/9
