Answer:

c(x,y)/(x²+y²)

Step-by-step explanation:

Since E​(x,y) = -∇V (x,y ) and V(x,y) =c ln (ro/√ x²+y²)

Let ro/√(x²+y²) = u and √(x²+y²) = v

dV/du = c/u = c√(x²+y²)/ro,

du/dv =  -ro/(x²+y²) = -ro/² and dv/dx = x/√(x²+y²)

Using the chain rule,

So dV/dx = dV/du × du/dv × dv/dx

= c√(x²+y²)/ro × -ro/(x²+y²) × x/√(x²+y²)

dV/dx = -cx/(x²+y²)

- dV/dx = -(-cx/(x²+y²)) = cx/(x²+y²)

Also, dv/dy = y/√(x²+y²)

Using the chain rule

dV/dy = dV/du × du/dv × dv/dy

= c√(x²+y²)/ro × -ro/(x²+y²) × y/√(x²+y²)

dV/dy = -cy/(x²+y²)

- dV/dy = -(-cy/(x²+y²)) = cy/(x²+y²)

E(x,y) = -∇V (x,y )

= -(dV/dx)i + [-(dV/dy)]j

= [cx/(x²+y²)]i +[ cy/(x²+y²)]j

= c(x,y)/(x²+y²)

Answer:

The answer is y=-x+9.

The first thing to do is find where the line intercepts the y-axis, which is at positive 9 so you'll add a +9 to the end of your equation. Next you find the slope and since it's going down left to right, you know it is a negative. Now slope is found by change in y divided by change in x. And since both change and y and change in x are both 1, 1/1 is 1. And since you know it's negative that means the slope is -x. Altogether you get y= -x+9

A farmhouse shelters 10 animals. Some are pigs and sone are ducks. Altogether there are 36 legs. How many of each animal are the
german
8 pigs x 4 legs each = 32. so you need 2 ducks to give you 10 animals total. So 32 + 2 ducks with 2 legs = 36.

There are 8 pigs and 2 ducks.

HHenry is going on a trip to Brazil. He is currently deciding which cities he will visit during his stay. The table below shows
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]
First, sum up the total expenses for the original plan

Duque de Caxias + Campinas + Rio de Janeiro + Guarulhos = 242+185+193+120 = R$740

It is clearly over the intended budget. The average cost per itinerary is around R$200 so we will consider making a swap on either Duque de Caxias and Rio de Janeiro.  Possible answers are (b) or (c)

for (b) Replace Duque de Caxias with Fortaleza, we will have

Fortaleza + Campinas + Rio de Janeiro + Guarulhos =
⇒ 201+185+193+120 = R$699  ⇒ This is exactly the budget intended for the trip

for (C) Replace Rio de Janeiro with Porto Alegre
Duque de Caxias + Campinas + Porto Alegre  + Guarulhos =
⇒ 242 + 185 + 153 +120 = R$ 700 ⇒ This is over R$1

The answer is (b)
