2y - 3/5 = 1/2

Add 3/5 to both sides.

2y = 1/2 + 3/5

Let's make the two fractions have common denominators.
Multiply 1/2 by 5/5 and 3/5 by 2/2.
1/2 * 5/5 = 5/10
3/5 * 2/2 = 6/10

2y = 5/10 + 6/10

Add the two fractions.

2y = 11/10

Divide both sides by 2.

11/10 ÷ 2
Use the Keep, Change, Flip method.
Keep 11/10, change ÷ to ×, and flip the 2 (reciprocal).
11/10 × 1/2 = 11/20

y = 11/20

How to differentiate y=x^n using the first principle. In this question, I cannot use the rule of differentiation. I have to do t

Zarrin [17]

By first principles, the derivative is

$\displaystyle\lim_{h\to0}\frac{(x+h)^n-x^n}h$

Use the binomial theorem to expand the numerator:

$(x+h)^n=\displaystyle\sum_{i=0}^n\binom nix^{n-i}h^i=\binom n0x^n+\binom n1x^{n-1}h+\cdots+\binom nnh^n$

$(x+h)^n=x^n+nx^{n-1}h+\dfrac{n(n-1)}2x^{n-2}h^2+\cdots+nxh^{n-1}+h^n$

where

$\dbinom nk=\dfrac{n!}{k!(n-k)!}$

The first term is eliminated, and the limit is

$\displaystyle\lim_{h\to0}\frac{nx^{n-1}h+\dfrac{n(n-1)}2x^{n-2}h^2+\cdots+nxh^{n-1}+h^n}h$

A power of $h$ in every term of the numerator cancels with $h$ in the denominator:

$\displaystyle\lim_{h\to0}\left(nx^{n-1}+\dfrac{n(n-1)}2x^{n-2}h+\cdots+nxh^{n-2}+h^{n-1}\right)$

Finally, each term containing $h$ approaches 0 as $h\to0$ , and the derivative is

$y=x^n\implies y'=nx^{n-1}$

Tom was driving 20.3 meters per second in a 45 mile per hour zone. Was Tom speeding? Explain using a unit conversion as well as

My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

Tom was speeding.

Step-by-step explanation:

The driving speed of Tom = 20.3 meters per second.

Speed allowed in the zone = 45 miles per hour zone.

Since the unit of speed allowed is given in miles per hour but the speed of tom is given in meters per second. So, first, we have to convert the meter per second into mile per hour then we can compare and find that Tom is speeding or not.

1 mile = 1609.34 meters

1 hour = 3600 second

Now convert 20.3 into mile per hour.

20.3 meters per second. = (20.3 / 1609.34)*3600 = 45.40981 mile per hour.

Since Tom’s speed is more than the allowed speed so he is speeding.
