Answer: x= -10

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

4.5(8−x)+36=102−2.5(3x+24)

(4.5)(8)+(4.5)(−x)+36=102+(−2.5)(3x)+(−2.5)(24)(Distribute)

36+−4.5x+36=102+−7.5x+−60

(−4.5x)+(36+36)=(−7.5x)+(102+−60)(Combine Like Terms)

−4.5x+72=−7.5x+42

−4.5x+72=−7.5x+42

Step 2: Add 7.5x to both sides.

−4.5x+72+7.5x=−7.5x+42+7.5x

3x+72=42

Step 3: Subtract 72 from both sides.

3x+72−72=42−72

3x=−30

In the Present Value of an Ordinary Annuity formula, what does the n represent?
Ierofanga [76]
N represents the number of payment periods.  Supposing you arranged for a mortgage to buy a house; you'd have to make n payments of so many dollars per month to pay off the mortgage (the total amount due,with interest).  

If the annual interest rate were r, and payments were due monthly (12 payments per year), then the monthly interest rate would be r/n = r/12.  The typical 30-year mortgage involves monthly payments over a 30 year time span.  This comes to 360 monthly mortgage payments.

Consider the following equation. f(x, y) = y3/x, P(1, 2), u = 1 3 2i + 5 j (a) Find the gradient of f. ∇f(x, y) = Correct: Your
BaLLatris [955]

f(x,y)=\dfrac{y^3}x

a. The gradient is

\nabla f(x,y)=\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial x}\,\vec\imath+\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial y}\,\vec\jmath

\boxed{\nabla f(x,y)=-\dfrac{y^3}{x^2}\,\vec\imath+\dfrac{3y^2}x\,\vec\jmath}

b. The gradient at point P(1, 2) is

\boxed{\nabla f(1,2)=-8\,\vec\imath+12\,\vec\jmath}

c. The derivative of f at P in the direction of \vec u is

D_{\vec u}f(1,2)=\nabla f(1,2)\cdot\dfrac{\vec u}{\|\vec u\|}

It looks like

\vec u=\dfrac{13}2\,\vec\imath+5\,\vec\jmath

so that

\|\vec u\|=\sqrt{\left(\dfrac{13}2\right)^2+5^2}=\dfrac{\sqrt{269}}2

Then

D_{\vec u}f(1,2)=\dfrac{\left(-8\,\vec\imath+12\,\vec\jmath\right)\cdot\left(\frac{13}2\,\vec\imath+5\,\vec\jmath\right)}{\frac{\sqrt{269}}2}

\boxed{D_{\vec u}f(1,2)=\dfrac{16}{\sqrt{269}}}
