Let x represent Holly's score on 7th math quiz.

We have been given that the mean of Holly's first six math quiz scores was 75%. This means that the average on 1st 6 math quizzes is 75.

To find the total scores on 1st 6 math quizzes, we will multiply 75 by 6 that is 75\times 6 =450.

We will use average formula to find test scores on 7th math quiz.

\text{Average of 7 math quizzes}=\frac{\text{Sum of scores on 7 math quizzes}}{\text{7 quizzes}}

77=\frac{x+450}{7}

Let us solve for x.

77\cdot 7=\frac{x+450}{7}\cdot 7

539=x+450

x+450=539

x+450-450=539-450

x=89

Therefore, Molly's score on the 7th math quiz was 89.

Consider the surface z = x 2+4y 2+1. Suppose you are walking on this surface directly above a curve C in the xy-plane, where the
Bess [88]

With x(t)=\cos t and y(t)=\sin t, we have

z(t)=x(t)^2+4y(t)^2+1

z(t)=\cos^2t+4\sin^2t+1

z(t)=3\sin^2t+2

Then z(t) has critical points where

\dfrac{\mathrm dz}{\mathrm dt}=6\sin t\cos t=3\sin2t=0

\implies\sin2t=0\implies2t=n\pi\implies t=\dfrac{n\pi}2

where n is any integer.

z(t) is increasing wherever \sin2t>0, which happens for

\dfrac{2n\pi}2

\boxed{n\pi
