The manager already hired 9 people. Let x be the number of people he still can hire. Since these people will add to the 9 he already hired, when the hiring campaign will be over he will have hired 9+x people. We know that he can't hire more than 14 people, so the number of people hired must be less than or equal to 14:

9+x \leq 14

If we subtract 9 from both sides, we have

x \leq 14-9=5

so, the manager can hire at most 5 other people

a circus charges $2.50 for kids tickets and $6 for adult tickets last week and twice as many kids attended the circus than adult
aliina [53]
Let
x-----------> the number of kids
y----------> the number of adults

we know that
2.5x+6y=$7150---------> equation 1
x=2y-------------> equation 2
substitute 2 in 1
2.5*[2y]+6y=7150-----> 5y+6y=7150----> 11y=7150-----> y=650
x=2y----> x=2*650----> 1300

the answer is
the number of kids is 1300

CALCULUS - Find the values of in the interval (0,2pi) where the tangent line to the graph of y = sinxcosx is
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

\{\frac{\pi}{4}, \frac{3\pi}{4},\frac{5\pi}{4},\frac{7\pi}{4}\}

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to find the values between the interval (0, 2π) where the tangent line to the graph of y=sin(x)cos(x) is horizontal.

Since the tangent line is horizontal, this means that our derivative at those points are 0.

So, first, let's find the derivative of our function.

y=\sin(x)\cos(x)

Take the derivative of both sides with respect to x:

\frac{d}{dx}[y]=\frac{d}{dx}[\sin(x)\cos(x)]

We need to use the product rule:

(uv)'=u'v+uv'

So, differentiate:

y'=\frac{d}{dx}[\sin(x)]\cos(x)+\sin(x)\frac{d}{dx}[\cos(x)]

Evaluate:

y'=(\cos(x))(\cos(x))+\sin(x)(-\sin(x))

Simplify:

y'=\cos^2(x)-\sin^2(x)

Since our tangent line is horizontal, the slope is 0. So, substitute 0 for y':

0=\cos^2(x)-\sin^2(x)

Now, let's solve for x. First, we can use the difference of two squares to obtain:

0=(\cos(x)-\sin(x))(\cos(x)+\sin(x))

Zero Product Property:

0=\cos(x)-\sin(x)\text{ or } 0=\cos(x)+\sin(x)

Solve for each case.

Case 1:

0=\cos(x)-\sin(x)

Add sin(x) to both sides:

\cos(x)=\sin(x)

To solve this, we can use the unit circle.

Recall at what points cosine equals sine.

This only happens twice: at π/4 (45°) and at 5π/4 (225°).

At both of these points, both cosine and sine equals √2/2 and -√2/2.

And between the intervals 0 and 2π, these are the only two times that happens.

Case II:

We have:

0=\cos(x)+\sin(x)

Subtract sine from both sides:

\cos(x)=-\sin(x)

Again, we can use the unit circle. Recall when cosine is the opposite of sine.

Like the previous one, this also happens at the 45°. However, this times, it happens at 3π/4 and 7π/4.

At 3π/4, cosine is -√2/2, and sine is √2/2. If we divide by a negative, we will see that cos(x)=-sin(x).

At 7π/4, cosine is √2/2, and sine is -√2/2, thus making our equation true.

Therefore, our solution set is:

\{\frac{\pi}{4}, \frac{3\pi}{4},\frac{5\pi}{4},\frac{7\pi}{4}\}

And we're done!

Edit: Small Mistake :)
