Let f(x,y,z)=z-\ln(x+y). The gradient of f at the point (1, 0, 0) is the normal vector to the surface, which is also orthogonal to the tangent plane at this point.

So the tangent plane has equation

\nabla f(1,0,0)\cdot(x-1,y,z)=0

Compute the gradient:

\nabla f(x,y,z)=\left(\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial x},\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial y},\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial z}\right)=\left(-\dfrac1{x+y},-\dfrac1{x+y},1\right)

Evaluate the gradient at the given point:

\nabla f(1,0,0)=(-1,-1,1)

Then the equation of the tangent plane is

(-1,-1,1)\cdot(x-1,y,z)=0\implies-(x-1)-y+z=0\implies\boxed{z=x+y-1}

How many whole numbers are less than 600 but are multiples for both 8 and 11
shutvik [7]

Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

11 = 11*1

8 = 2*4

They have no common factors, so the LCM (least common multiple) is

2*4*11 = 88

The multiples of 8 and 11 below 600 are multiples of 88

88*1 =88

88*2 =176

88*3 =264

88*4 =352

88*5 =440

88*6 =528

This is the last multiple because if we add 88 if would be over 600

Can someone please help me solve for x? i already have y
Scrat [10]

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{3}{9}  =  \frac{5}{y}   = \frac{x}{12}  \\  \frac{3}{9}  =  \frac{5}{y}  \\ 3y = 45 \\ y = 15 \\  \\  \frac{3}{9}  =  \frac{x}{12}  \\ 9x = 36 \\ x = 4

Find the area of the region that lies under the parabola y=5x - x^2, where 1≤x≤4. I would definitely like to see some work :)
Elena L [17]

Answer:

  16.5 square units

Step-by-step explanation:

You are expected to integrate the function between x=1 and x=4:

  \displaystyle\text{area}=\int_1^4{(5x-x^2)}\,dx=\left.\left(\dfrac{5}{2}x^2-\dfrac{1}{3}x^3\right)\right|_{x=1}^{x=4}\\\\=\dfrac{5(4^2-1^2)}{2}-\dfrac{4^3-1^3}{3}=37.5-21=\boxed{16.5}

<em>Additional comment</em>

If you're aware that the area inside a (symmetrical) parabola is 2/3 of the area of the enclosing rectangle, you can compute the desired area as follows.

The parabolic curve is 4-1 = 3 units wide between x=1 and x=4. It extends upward 2.25 units from y=4 to y=6.25, so the enclosing rectangle is 3×2.25 = 6.75 square units. 2/3 of that area is (2/3)(6.75) = 4.5 square units.

This region sits on top of a rectangle 3 units wide and 4 units high, so the total area under the parabolic curve is ...

  area = 4.5 +3×4 = 16.5 . . . square units

how many different combinations of six people can sit in four chairs? assume one person sits in each chair
Tems11 [23]

We want to choose 4 people and we have 6 people to choose from. This is a combination of 6, 4 by 4. Also called <em>six choose four</em>.

The following formula:

_rC_n=\frac{n!}{r!(n-r)!}

Is the combination of r objects choosen from a total of n. It's n choose r.

For our problem, we just need to compute the following:

_4C_6=\frac{6!}{4!(6-4)!}=\frac{6\times5\times4!}{4!2!} =\frac{6\times5}{2\times1} =15

Thus

\boxed{_4C_6=15}

Therefore the answer is 15 different combinations
