Answer:

(1) 39 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Feris wheel moves in a circular pattern. But if you take imaginary horizontal and vertical lines from your location to the Ferris wheel's center, you can wee see this make a triangle. This question is about trigonometry. Horizontal distance is the adjacent side and vertical distance is the opposite side. Your straight line distance to the center is the hypotenuse(45 feet). Then we can solve the question using the sin formula.

sin x = opposite/hypotenuse

sin 120 = vertical distance/ 45 feet

vertical distance = 0.8660 * 45 feet

vertical distance =38.97 feet = 39 feet

Find the prime factorization of the number 12

Vsevolod [243]

First, you must use a factor tree to find the prime factors of the number.

12

/ \

6 (2)

/ \

(3) (2)

2 , 2 and 3 are the prime factors that make 12

2 x 2 x 3= 12

Or

2^2 x 3= 12

Derivative of<br><img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%20%5Cfrac%7B%20%7B3x%7D%5E%7B2%7D%20-%202x%20-%201%20%7D%7B%20%7Bx%7D%5E%7B2

Answer:

$\displaystyle \frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{2x + 2}{x^3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

we would like to figure out the derivative of the following:

$\displaystyle \frac{ { 3x }^{2} - 2x - 1 }{ {x}^{2} }$

to do so, let,

$\displaystyle y = \frac{ { 3x }^{2} - 2x - 1 }{ {x}^{2} }$

By simplifying we acquire:

$\displaystyle y = 3 - \frac{2}{x} - \frac{1}{ {x}^{2} }$

use law of exponent which yields:

$\displaystyle y = 3 - 2 {x}^{ - 1} - { {x}^{ - 2} }$

take derivative in both sides:

$\displaystyle \frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{d}{dx} (3 - 2 {x}^{ - 1} - { {x}^{ - 2} } )$

use sum derivation rule which yields:

$\rm\displaystyle \frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{d}{dx} 3 - \frac{d}{dx} 2 {x}^{ - 1} - \frac{d}{dx} {x}^{ - 2}$

By constant derivation we acquire:

$\rm\displaystyle \frac{dy}{dx} = 0 - \frac{d}{dx} 2 {x}^{ - 1} - \frac{d}{dx} {x}^{ - 2}$

use exponent rule of derivation which yields:

$\rm\displaystyle \frac{dy}{dx} = 0 - ( - 2 {x}^{ - 1 -1} ) - ( - 2 {x}^{ - 2 - 1} )$

simplify exponent:

$\rm\displaystyle \frac{dy}{dx} = 0 - ( - 2 {x}^{ -2} ) - ( - 2 {x}^{ - 3} )$

two negatives make positive so,

$\displaystyle \frac{dy}{dx} = 2 {x}^{ -2} + 2 {x}^{ - 3}$

<h3>further simplification if needed:</h3>

by law of exponent we acquire:

$\displaystyle \frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{2 }{x^2}+ \frac{2}{x^3}$

simplify addition:

$\displaystyle \frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{2x + 2}{x^3}$

and we are done!
