We need 75 quarts of 3% butterfat milk. How much of 2% and 5% do we need to mix? (t = 2% and f = 5%)

A) t + f = 75

B) .02 t + .05 f = (.03 * 75)

B) .02 t + .05 f = 2.25


Solving for t and f:

t = 50 quarts of 2 % and

f = 25 quarts of 5%


Double-Check

50 * .02 = 1 quart of buttermilk

25 * .05 = 1.25 quarts of buttermilk


2.25 quarts divided by 75 quarts = 3 % buttermilk

The graphs of the function f (given in blue) and g (given in red) are plotted above. Suppose that u(x)=f(x)g(x) and v(x)=f(x)/g(
Rus_ich [418]
U(x) = f(x).(gx)
v(x) = f(x) /  g(x)

Use chain rule to find u(x) and v(x).

u '(x) = f '(x) g(x) + f(x) g'(x)

v ' (x) = [f '(x) g(x) - f(x) g(x)] / [g(x)]^2

The functions given are piecewise.

You need to use the pieces that include the point x = 1.

You can calculate f '(x) and g '(x) at x =1, as the slopes of the lines that define each function.

And the slopes can be calculated graphycally as run / rise of each graph, around the given point.

f '(x) = slope of f (x); at x = 1, f '(1) = run / rise = 1/1 = 1

g '(x) = slope of g(x); at x = 1, g '(1) = run / rise = 1.5/ 1 = 1.5

You also need f (1) = 1 and g(1) = 2

Then:

u '(1) =  f '(1) g(1) + f(1) g'(1) = 1*2 + 1*1.5 = 2 + 1.5 = 3.5

v ' (x) = [f '(1) g(1) - f(1) g(1)] / [g(1)]^2 = [1*2 -  1*1.5] / (2)^2 = [2-1.5]/4 =

= 0.5/4 = 0.125

Answers:
u '(1) = 3.5
v '(1) = 0.125

If (x + 2) is a factor of x3 − 6x2 + kx + 10, k =
ch4aika [34]

Answer:

The value of k is -11

Step-by-step explanation:

If (x+2) is a factor of x3 − 6x2 + kx + 10:

Then,

f(x)=x3 − 6x2 + kx + 10

f(-2)=0

f(-2)=(-2)³-6(-2)²+k(-2)+10=0

f(-2)= -8-6(4)-2k+10=0

f(-2)= -8-24-2k+10=0

Solve the like terms:

f(-2)=-2k-22=0

f(-2)=-2k=0+22

-2k=22

k=22/-2

k=-11

Hence the value of k is -11....
