Answer:

59 patients

Step-by-step explanation:

Total patients Sam saw in a week = 236

Percentage of patients near-sighted = 25%

How many of the patients Sam saw were near-sighted?

Number of patients near-sighted = 25% of 236

= 25/100 × 236

= 0.25 × 236

= 59

Number of patients near-sighted = 59 patients

The number of patients Sam saw in a week that were near-sighted is 59 patients

Differentiating a Logarithmic Function in Exercise, find the derivative of the function. See Examples 1, 2, 3, and 4.
ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

\dfrac{dy}{dx}=- \dfrac{1}{\left(x - 1\right) \left(x + 1\right)}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

y = \ln{\left(\dfrac{x + 1}{x - 1}\right)^{\frac{1}{2}}

using the properties of log we can take the power 1/2 and multiply it.

y = \dfrac{1}{2}\ln{\left(\dfrac{x + 1}{x - 1}\right)

now we can differentiate:

\dfrac{dy}{dx} = \dfrac{1}{2}\dfrac{1}{\left(\dfrac{x + 1}{x - 1}\right)}\left(\dfrac{d}{dx}\left(\dfrac{x+1}{x-1}\right)\right)

\dfrac{dy}{dx} = \dfrac{1}{2}\left(\dfrac{x - 1}{x + 1}\right)\left(- \dfrac{2}{\left(x - 1\right)^{2}}\right)

\dfrac{dy}{dx}=- \dfrac{1}{\left(x - 1\right) \left(x + 1\right)}

this is our answer!

Nth sequence term question
SSSSS [86.1K]
One example is when n is 11. 11^2 + 4 = 125. 11 is odd but the 11th term of the sequence, 125, is not prime because 125 is divisible by 5 and 25.

X/2 is greater than or equal to -4
irga5000 [103]
\frac{x}{2}≥-4

Pretend the greater than or equal to sign is an equal sign, we will substitute it back in later.

x/2 = -4
Multiply both sides by 2 to get x alone
x = -8
Substitute the greater than or equal to sign back in and voila!
x≥-8
