Assign x as the number of females.

Since makes are six times more: 6x is the male variable.

In total there are 7x students.

So the fraction for males is : 6/7

There's no way to simplify further because there's no term common to both the denominator/numerator.


Answer: 6/7

Implicit Differentiation

The derivative of a constant is equal to 0

Basic Power Rule:

  • f(x) = cxⁿ
  • f’(x) = c·nxⁿ⁻¹

Product Rule: \frac{d}{dx} [f(x)g(x)]=f'(x)g(x) + g'(x)f(x)

Chain Rule: \frac{d}{dx}[f(g(x))] =f'(g(x)) \cdot g'(x)

Quotient Rule: \frac{d}{dx} [\frac{f(x)}{g(x)} ]=\frac{g(x)f'(x)-g'(x)f(x)}{g^2(x)}

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

-xy - 2y = -4

Rate of change of the tangent line at point (-1, 4)

<u>Step 2: Differentiate Pt. 1</u>

<em>Find 1st Derivative</em>

  1. Implicit Differentiation [Product Rule/Basic Power Rule]:                            -y - xy' - 2y' = 0
  2. [Algebra] Isolate <em>y'</em> terms:                                                                               -xy' - 2y' = y
  3. [Algebra] Factor <em>y'</em>:                                                                                       y'(-x - 2) = y
  4. [Algebra] Isolate <em>y'</em>:                                                                                         y' = \frac{y}{-x-2}
  5. [Algebra] Rewrite:                                                                                           y' = \frac{-y}{x+2}

<u>Step 3: Find </u><em><u>y</u></em>

  1. Define equation:                    -xy - 2y = -4
  2. Factor <em>y</em>:                                 y(-x - 2) = -4
  3. Isolate <em>y</em>:                                 y = \frac{-4}{-x-2}
  4. Simplify:                                 y = \frac{4}{x+2}

<u>Step 4: Rewrite 1st Derivative</u>

  1. [Algebra] Substitute in <em>y</em>:                                                                               y' = \frac{-\frac{4}{x+2} }{x+2}
  2. [Algebra] Simplify:                                                                                         y' = \frac{-4}{(x+2)^2}

<u>Step 5: Differentiate Pt. 2</u>

<em>Find 2nd Derivative</em>

  1. Differentiate [Quotient Rule/Basic Power Rule]:                                          y'' = \frac{0(x+2)^2 - 8 \cdot 2(x + 2) \cdot 1}{[(x + 2)^2]^2}
  2. [Derivative] Simplify:                                                                                      y'' = \frac{8}{(x+2)^3}

<u>Step 6: Find Slope at Given Point</u>

  1. [Algebra] Substitute in <em>x</em>:                                                                               y''(-1) = \frac{8}{(-1+2)^3}
  2. [Algebra] Evaluate:                                                                                       y''(-1) =8

A construction worker fills a mold with concrete. This solid figure represents the mold.
allochka39001 [22]

Answer:

6580cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer is 6580cm because....

  • Step one First let's figure out what the smaller shape's volume is. To do so we need to multiply ( LxWxH ) so 6x5x? it does not list what the height is so we know it has the same height as the larger shape and it's height is 14cm so we will use 14cm. 6x5x14=420cm
  • Step two Now lets find the Volume of the larger shape. So lets do LxWxH so Lx?x14 it does not give us the length so we need to add up all of the numbers along the line. We got 7cm then 5 from the bottom of the smaller shape and 10cm. all ads up to 22cm so 20x22x14=6160
  • Finally we add up the following shapes Volume which are 6160+420=6580cm

Which of the following statements accurately describes the result of a decreasing worker-per-beneficiary ratio in the Social Sec
Marysya12 [62]

The correct answer would be,

<em><u>c. </u></em>

<em><u>Fewer taxed workers than beneficiaries means that more money is being drawn from the system for the money put in.  This leaves a shortage of money in the system making benefits for future beneficiaries unsure.</u></em>
