7/48 is the bigger one

7 0

9/20 is bigger because if you put them in decimal form you get 7/48 = 0.145833333 and you would round that to the nearest hundredths place which would give you 0.15 and for 9/20 = 0.45.

Each calendar will sell for 5 each. Write an equation to model the total income, y, for selling x calendars

OleMash [197]

Answer:

y = 5x

Step-by-step explanation:

If each calendar, x, sells for $5 each, you would multiply 5·x because $5 is how much you earn per calender. Therefore, your total income would be 5 times the number of calendars you sell, or in equation "language", y = 5x

Find an equation for the plane that is tangent to the surface z equals ln (x plus y )at the point Upper P (1 comma 0 comma 0 ).

alexira [117]

Let $f(x,y,z)=z-\ln(x+y)$ . The gradient of $f$ at the point (1, 0, 0) is the normal vector to the surface, which is also orthogonal to the tangent plane at this point.

So the tangent plane has equation

$\nabla f(1,0,0)\cdot(x-1,y,z)=0$

Compute the gradient:

$\nabla f(x,y,z)=\left(\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial x},\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial y},\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial z}\right)=\left(-\dfrac1{x+y},-\dfrac1{x+y},1\right)$
