The lengths of the pieces are 37 ft and 98 ft.

-

Steps I took:

I assumed that the 136 ft is cut into two pieces.

The two pieces would represent x & y, which would then be y = 3x - 16 and x + y = 136.

Then, x = 38 ft and y = 98 ft which would be your answer.

Hope this helped! :)

C) 22

86/4 = 21.5
*5 Or more, raise the score*
(rounds to 22)
you should have 2 lightbulbs left over but you would be 2 lightbulbs short if you were to get 21 packages as opposed to 22

Find the first partial derivatives of the function f(x,y,z)=4xsin(y−z)
Amanda [17]

Answer:

f_x(x,y,z)=4\sin (y-z)

f_x(x,y,z)=4x\cos (y-z)

f_z(x,y,z)=-4x\cos (y-z)

Step-by-step explanation:

The given function is

f(x,y,z)=4x\sin (y-z)

We need to find first partial derivatives of the function.

Differentiate partially w.r.t. x and y, z are constants.

f_x(x,y,z)=4(1)\sin (y-z)

f_x(x,y,z)=4\sin (y-z)

Differentiate partially w.r.t. y and x, z are constants.

f_y(x,y,z)=4x\cos (y-z)\dfrac{\partial}{\partial y}(y-z)

f_y(x,y,z)=4x\cos (y-z)

Differentiate partially w.r.t. z and x, y are constants.

f_z(x,y,z)=4x\cos (y-z)\dfrac{\partial}{\partial z}(y-z)

f_z(x,y,z)=4x\cos (y-z)(-1)

f_z(x,y,z)=-4x\cos (y-z)

Therefore, the first partial derivatives of the function are f_x(x,y,z)=4\sin (y-z), f_x(x,y,z)=4x\cos (y-z)\text{ and }f_z(x,y,z)=-4x\cos (y-z).

An electrician needs to run a cable from the top of a 40​-foot tower to a transmitter box located 30 feet away from the base of
grin007 [14]
The cable should be 50 feet.

If you draw the picture, you will see that you have a right triangle.

Let's just use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the hypotenuse (or cable).

30^2 + 40^2 = c^2
2500 = c^2
50 = c
