How to determine the acute angle between the line 2x+3y=6 and the y axis?

1 answer:

6 0

$2x+3y=6\\3y=-2x+6\ \ \ /:3\\y=-\frac{2}{3}x+2\\\\the\ angle\ between\ the\ line\ and\ the\ x\ axis-\alpha\\\\tg\alpha=-\frac{2}{3}\approx-0.666...\to\alpha\approx124^o\\\\the\ acute\ angle\ between\ the\ line\ and\ the\ y\ axis\ is\ 124^o-90^o=34^o$

Find the maximum rate of change of f at the given point and the direction in which it occurs. f(x, y) = 9 sin(xy), (0, 8)

malfutka [58]

Answer:

The magnitude is $\Delta f(0,8) = 72$

The direction is $i$ i.e toward the x-axis

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

The function is $f(x, y) = 9sin(xy) \ \ \$

The point considered is $(0,8 )$

Generally the maximum rate of change of f at the given point and the direction is mathematically represented as

$\Delta f(x,y) = [\frac{\delta f(x,y)}{\delta x } i + \frac{\delta f(x,y)}{\delta y } j ]$

$\Delta f(x,y) = [\frac{\delta (9sin(xy))}{\delta x} i + \frac{\delta (9sin(xy))}{\delta y} i ]$

$\Delta f(x,y) = [9y cos (x,y) i + 9xcos (x,y) j]$

At $(0,8 )$

$\Delta f (0,8) = [9(8) cos(0* 8)i + 9(8) sin(0* 8)j ]$

$\Delta f (0,8) = 72 i$

Seventy-six percent of sunflower seeds will germinate into a flower, and a sample of 800 such sunflower seeds is randomly select

ollegr [7]

Answer:

12.08

Step-by-step explanation:

For each sunflower, there are only two possible outcomes. Either it germinates, or it does not. The probability of a sunflower germinating is independent of other sunflowers. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

Probability of exactly x sucesses on n repeated trials, with p probability.

The standard deviation of the binomial distribution is:

$\sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)}$
