Compute the derivative of <em>y</em> = (<em>x</em>² + <em>x</em> - 2)² using the chain rule:
d<em>y</em>/d<em>x</em> = 2 (<em>x</em>² + <em>x</em> - 2) d/d<em>x</em> [<em>x</em>² + <em>x</em> - 2]
d<em>y</em>/d<em>x</em> = 2 (<em>x</em>² + <em>x</em> - 2) (2<em>x</em> + 1)
Evaluate the derivative at <em>x</em> = -1 :
d<em>y</em>/d<em>x</em> (-1) = 2 ((-1)² + (-1) - 2) (2 (-1) + 1) = 4
This is the slope of the tangent line to the function at (-1, 4).
Use the point-slope formula to get the equation for the tangent line:
<em>y</em> - 4 = 4 (<em>x</em> - (-1)) → <em>y</em> = 4<em>x</em> + 8
Answer:
100 yards of fabric
Step-by-step explanation:
12 divided by 3 = 4 yards of fabric per costume
4 x 25 = 100 yards of fabric
The ratio of the radii is 2:1, so the ratio of their surface areas is 4:1. <span>The area of a sphere is defined by 4 * pi * r^2 </span>
<span>So if the radius of the first sphere is 2r, then it would be (2r)^2 = 4r^2 </span>
<span>The rest is the same. So the ratio of their surface areas would be </span>
<span>4 * pi * 4r^2 divided by </span>
<span>4 * pi * r^2 </span>
<span>or 4.</span>
Answer:
5
Step-by-step explanation:
She could've cut the cake into 6 pieces so everyone could have an equal slice of cake or she could've cut it into 12 pieces and everyone could have 2 pieces each equally
hope this helps :)
