Solution

1. The algebraic expression =  -0.5n - 3.8, where n is the number of minutes.


2. Here the variable "n" represents the number of minutes.


Thank you.

For this case we have the following data:

  • 3.8 is the distance below the surface of the water
  • 0.5 is the rate of descent, given in meters per minute

In this way, the depth of the diver for a certain number of minutes is given by:

3.8 + 0.5x, where x represents the number of minutes

Answer:

Question 1: 3.8 + 0.5x\\

Question 2: x represents the number of minutes

The sales tax in one towns 8%. So, the total cost of an item can be written as c + 0.08c. What is the total cost of an item that
Artemon [7]
Short answer:
TotalCost = 12.96


Long answer:

It gives you the equation of

total cost = C + 0.08C

You just need to plug-in the $12 to the equation.
In other words, the equation is:
TotalCost = 12 + 0.08*12
TotalCost = 12 + 0.96
TotalCost = 12.96

Find expressions for the partial derivatives of the following functions:
nlexa [21]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation: partial derivative is the differentiation of one variable e.g. X while leaving the values of the other variable e.g. Y

These four questions A, B, C and D have different functions separated by commas. I will not assume the commas to be something else like a plus sign.

A. f(x) = g'(x).k(y) , g'(x) + h(y)

f(y) = k'(y).g(x) , g(x) + h'(y)

B. f(x) = g'x (x+y)

f(y) = g'y (x+y) , h'y (y+z)

f(z) = h'z (y+z)

C. f(x) = f'x (xy) , f'x (zx)

f(y) = f'y (xy) , f'y (yz)

f(z) = f'z (yz) , f'z (zx)

D. f(x) = f'x (x) , g'(x) , h'x (x,y)

f(y) = h'x (x,y)

These are the partial derivative expressions for each variable in each function. You will need to pay a lot of attention to understand:

* while differentiating X alone, functions in Y which are separated by commas from the functions in X, are ignored totally because they are different questions

* In functions where X added to Y is in a bracket e.g. (x+y), to find the derivative of X, Y isn't thrown away because they are joined (by a plus sign) the derivative of X alone in this case would be f'x (x+y)

* f(x), just like g(x), simply means/represents a function in X hence f'(x) means the differentiation of all X-terms in that function
