Oi

Just calculating the differential. Step by step:

$y=12 \sqrt{x} -x \frac{3}{2}-10 \\ \\ y=12x^{ \frac{1}{2} } -x \frac{3}{2}-10 \ \ \ \boxed{transform \ \sqrt{x} =x^{ \frac{1}{2} }} \\ \\ Differentiating \\ \\ y'=12. \frac{1}{2}.x^{ \frac{1}{2}-1 } -1.x^{1-1}. \frac{3}{2}-0 \\ \\ y'=6.x^{ -\frac{1}{2} } -x^{0}. \frac{3}{2} \\ \\ y'=6. \frac{1}{x^{ \frac{1}{2} }} -1. \frac{3}{2} \\ \\ \boxed{y'=\frac{6}{ \sqrt{x} } -\frac{3}{2}}$

If you want to know where the tangent has no slope:

$\frac{6}{ \sqrt{x} } - \frac{3}{2} =0 \\ \\ \frac{6}{ \sqrt{x} } = \frac{3}{2} \\ \\ 3 \sqrt{x} =12 \\ \\ \sqrt{x} = \frac{12}{3} \\ \\ \sqrt{x} =4 \\ \\ (\sqrt{x})^2 =4^2 \\ \\ x=16$

The diagram shows a triangle.<br> 108°<br> 42°<br> 15c<br> What is the value of c?

Tom [10]

Assuming these are the angles for the inside of the triangle:

c=2

Step-by-step:

108+42+15c=180
150+15c=180
15c=30
c=2

In zoe's class, 4/5 of the students have pets. of the students who have pets, 1/8 have rodents. what fraction of the students in

olasank [31]

Let us assume the number of student's in Zoe's class = x
Then
Number of students that have pets = 4x/5
Number of students that have rodents as pets = (1/8) * (4x/5)
= x/10
Number of students in Zoe's class
that have pets that are not rodents = (4x/5) - (x/10)
= (8x - x)/10
= 7x/10
I hope that the procedure is clear enough for you to understand and this is the answer that you were looking for.
