Answer:

4 bags

Step-by-step explanation:

3 bags would only cover 15 people so the next lowest amount is 4 bags.

Answer:

4 bags of chips

Step-by-step explanation:

1 bag                     x bags

-----------------= -------------------------

5 people            18 people

using cross products

1 * 18 = 5 * x

18 = 5x

divide by 5

18/5 = x

3 3/5 =x

but we can't buy 3/5 of a bag of chips so we round up

4 bags of chips

Which expression represents the distance between point (0, a) and point (a, 0) on a coordinate grid?
o-na [289]

Answer:

\sqrt{2} a

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance between point (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) on a coordinate plane is given by expression \sqrt{(x1-x2)^2+(y1-y2)^2}

In the problem given coordinate points are

(0, a) and (a, 0).

Thus, distance between these points are given by

distance = \sqrt{(x1-x2)^2+(y1-y2)^2}\\=>distance = \sqrt{(0-a)^2+(a-0)^2}\\=>distance = \sqrt{(a)^2+(a)^2}\\\\=>distance = \sqrt{2a^2}\\=>distance = \sqrt{2} a

Thus , expression \sqrt{2} a gives the distance between point (0, a) and point (a, 0) on a coordinate grid.

Would you need to use the chain rule to find the derivative of this function?
Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

TRUE. We need to use the chain rule to find the derivative of the given function.

Step-by-step explanation:

Chain rule to find the derivative,

We have to find the derivative of F(x)

If F(x) = f[g(x)]

Then F'(x) = f'[g(x)].g'(x)

Given function is,

y = \sqrt{2x+3}

Here g(x) = (2x + 3)

and f[g(x)] = \sqrt{2x+3}

\frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{d}{dx}(\sqrt{2x+3}).\frac{d}{dx} (2x+3)

y' = \frac{1}{2}(2x+3)^{(1-\frac{1}{2})}.(2)

   = (2x+3)^{-\frac{1}{2}}

y' = \frac{1}{\sqrt{2x+3}}

Therefore, it's true that we need to use the chain rule to find the derivative of the given function.

✧・゚: *✧・゚:*    *:・゚✧*:・゚✧

                  Hello!

✧・゚: *✧・゚:*    *:・゚✧*:・゚✧

❖ 8.5 in = 425 miles

If 1 mi = 50 inches, multiply by 8.5:

50 x 8.5 = 425
