Answer:

x^2 + x = 42

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = the number

Is means equals and sum means add

The sum of a number and its square is 42

x + x^2 = 42

pshichka [43]

Answer:

$\frac{dh}{dt}=\frac{30r}{\sqrt{d^{2}+900}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

A road is perpendicular to a highway leading to a farmhouse d miles away.

An automobile passes through the point of intersection with a constant speed $\frac{dx}{dt}$ = r mph

Let x be the distance of automobile from the point of intersection and distance between the automobile and farmhouse is 'h' miles.

Then by Pythagoras theorem,

h² = d² + x²

By taking derivative on both the sides of the equation,

$(2h)\frac{dh}{dt}=(2x)\frac{dx}{dt}$

$(h)\frac{dh}{dt}=(x)\frac{dx}{dt}$

$(h)\frac{dh}{dt}=rx$

$\frac{dh}{dt}=\frac{rx}{h}$

When automobile is 30 miles past the intersection,

For x = 30

$\frac{dh}{dt}=\frac{30r}{h}$

Since $h=\sqrt{d^{2}+(30)^{2}}$

Therefore,

$\frac{dh}{dt}=\frac{30r}{\sqrt{d^{2}+(30)^{2}}}$

$\frac{dh}{dt}=\frac{30r}{\sqrt{d^{2}+900}}$

If f'(0) = 5 and F(x) = f(3x), what is F'(0)?

Llana [10]

Answer:

$\displaystyle F'(0) = 15$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that:

$f'(0) = 5 \text{ and } F(x) = f(3x)$

And we want to find F'(0).

First, find F(x):

$\displaystyle F'(x) = \frac{d}{dx}\left[ f(3x)]$

From the chain rule:

$\displaystyle \begin{aligned} F'(x) &= f'(3x) \cdot \frac{d}{dx} \left[ 3x\right] \\ \\ &= 3f'(3x)\end{aligned}$

Then:

$\displaystyle \begin{aligned} F'(0) & = 3f'(3(0)) \\ \\ & = 3f'(0) \\ \\ & = 3(5) \\ \\ & = 15\end{aligned}$

In conclusion, F'(0) = 15.
