Answer:

The rate at which the temperature is changing at 4 p.m. is T'(16)=-\frac{5\pi }{12}\approx-1.309 \:\frac{\ºF}{h}

Step-by-step explanation:

The derivative,  f'(a) is the instantaneous rate of change of y = f(x) with respect to x when x = a.

We know that the daily temperature in degrees Fahrenheit of Phoenix in the summer can be modeled by the function

T(x)=94-10\cos[\frac{\pi }{12}(x-2 )],

where x is hours after midnight.

To find the rate at which the temperature is changing at 4 p.m. First, we must find the derivative of this function.

T'(x)=\frac{d}{dx}\left(94-10\cos \left[\frac{\pi \:\:}{12}\left(x-2\:\right)\right]\right)\\\\\mathrm{Apply\:the\:Sum/Difference\:Rule}:\quad \left(f\pm g\right)'=f\:'\pm g\\\\T'(x)=\frac{d}{dx}\left(94\right)-\frac{d}{dx}\left(10\cos \left(\frac{\pi }{12}\left(x-2\right)\right)\right)

\mathrm{Derivative\:of\:a\:constant}:\quad \frac{d}{dx}\left(a\right)=0\\\\\frac{d}{dx}\left(94\right)=0

\mathrm{Apply\:the\:chain\:rule}:\quad \frac{df\left(u\right)}{dx}=\frac{df}{du}\cdot \frac{du}{dx}\\f=\cos \left(u\right),\:\:u=\frac{\pi }{12}\left(x-2\right)\\\\

10\frac{d}{du}\left(\cos \left(u\right)\right)\frac{d}{dx}\left(\frac{\pi }{12}\left(x-2\right)\right)\\\\10\left(-\sin \left(u\right)\right)\frac{\pi }{12}\\\\\mathrm{Substitute\:back}\:u=\frac{\pi }{12}\left(x-2\right)\\\\10\left(-\sin \left(\frac{\pi }{12}\left(x-2\right)\right)\right)\frac{\pi }{12}\\\\\frac{d}{dx}\left(10\cos \left(\frac{\pi }{12}\left(x-2\right)\right)\right)=-\frac{5\pi }{6}\sin \left(\frac{\pi }{12}\left(x-2\right)\right)

So,

T'(x)=\frac{5\pi }{6}\sin \left(\frac{\pi }{12}\left(x-2\right)\right)

Then, at 4 p.m means x=16 because x is hours after midnight.

Thus,

T'(16)=\frac{5\pi }{6}\sin \left(\frac{\pi }{12}\left(16-2\right)\right)\\\\T'(16)=-\frac{5\pi }{12}\approx-1.309

The rate at which the temperature is changing at 4 p.m. is T'(16)=-\frac{5\pi }{12}\approx-1.309 \:\frac{\ºF}{h}

aleksklad [387]
This suggests that he buys products with higher prices than other similar products. But this type of market(monopolistic competition) is great though, because there are lesser suppliers than in the pure competition where products are almost within the same price ranges. In a monopolistic competition, suppliers sell their products with a justifiable high price. This is also an advantage for the buyers, they would be able to consume and be satisfied with products of high quality.

What is the value of x in the proportion (x - 1)/5 = (4x + 2)/35?
nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

x=3

Step-by-step explanation:

1. cross multiply to get

5(4x+2)= 35(x-1)

2. distribute

20x+10=35x-35

3. combine like terms

45=15x

4. divide :)

3=x
