Answer:

The first option, y - 5 = 1/2 (x -3)

Step-by-step explanation:

If the lines are parallel, that means that the slope is the same and in this case the slope is 1/2. The format of the equations are point-slope form: y-y1=m(x-x1). m stands for the slope so we can eliminate the 2nd and 4th option. x1 and y1 stand for a point (x1, y1). and we can replace that with the given information (3,5). Then we can rewrite the whole equation using the given info. y - 5 = 1/2 (x -3).

Show that (2xy3 + cos x)dx + (3x2 y2 − sin y)dy = 0 is exact, and find the solution. Find c if y(0) = π

Licemer1 [7]

We're looking for a solution of the form $F(x,y)=C$ . By the chain rule, this solution should have total differential

$\mathrm dF=\dfrac{\partial F}{\partial x}\,\mathrm dx+\dfrac{\partial F}{\partial y}\,\mathrm dy=0$

and the equation is exact if the mixed second-order partial derivatives of $F$ are equal, i.e. $\frac{\partial^2F}{\partial x\partial y}=\dfrac{\partial^2F}{\partial y\partial x}$ .

The given ODE is exact, since

$\dfrac{\partial(2xy^3+\cos x)}{\partial y}=6xy^2$

$\dfrac{\partial(3x^2y^2-\sin y)}{\partial x}=6xy^2$

Then

$\dfrac{\partial F}{\partial x}=2xy^3+\cos x\implies F(x,y)=x^2y^3+\sin x+f(y)$

$\dfrac{\partial F}{\partial y}=3x^2y^2-\sin y=3x^2y^2+\dfrac{\mathrm df}{\mathrm dy}$

$\dfrac{\mathrm df}{\mathrm dy}=-\sin y\implies f(y)=\cos y+C$

$\implies x^2y^3+\sin x+\cos y=C$

With $y(0)=\pi$ , we get

$\cos\pi=C\implies C=-1$

$\implies\boxed{x^2y^3+\sin x+\cos y=-1}$

Tina wants to save money for school. Tina invests $1,100 in an account that pays an interest rate of 7.25%. How many years will

svlad2 [7]

The amount of Tina money can be expressed in an exponent function like this:
an= $1100(1.0725)^n
The variable an represent the total money and variable n is the years needed to achieve that amount.

Then, the time needed for the money to reach $6,600 would be:

an= $1100(1.0725)^n
$6,600= $1100(1.0725)^n
$1,100(6)= $1100(1.0725)^n
6= (1.0725)^n
n= log1.075 6
n= 24.78
