Step-by-step explanation:

Here, f(x) is the given polynomial.

By remainder Theorem,

When divided by (3x-1),

f(1/3) = -3........(1)

When divided by (x+1),

f(-1) = -7.........(2)

Another polynomial is 3x²+2x-1

Solving,

3x²+2x-1

= 3x²+3x-x-1

=3x(x+1)-(x+1)

=(3x-1)(x+1)

f(x) = (3x-1)(x+1)Qx + (ax+b)

For f(-1),

-7 = -a+b

b= a-7

For f(1/3),

-3 = a/3+b

or, -3 = a/3+a-7

or, 4×3 = 4a

or a = 3

Also, b = 3-7 =-4

Hence, remainder is (3x-4)

Use chain rule to find dw/dt w=ln(x^2 + y^2 + z^2)^(1/2) , x=sint, y=cost, z=tant

son4ous [18]

The chain rule states that

$\dfrac{\mathrm dw}{\mathrm dt}=\dfrac{\partial w}{\partial x}\dfrac{\mathrm dx}{\mathrm dt}+\dfrac{\partial w}{\partial y}\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dt}+\dfrac{\partial w}{\partial z}\dfrac{\mathrm dz}{\mathrm dt}$

Since $\ln(x^2+y^2+z^2)^{1/2}=\dfrac12\ln(x^2+y^2+z^2)$ , you have

$\dfrac{\partial w}{\partial x}=\dfrac x{x^2+y^2+z^2}$
$\dfrac{\partial w}{\partial x}=\dfrac y{x^2+y^2+z^2}$
$\dfrac{\partial w}{\partial z}=\dfrac z{x^2+y^2+z^2}$

and

$\dfrac{\mathrm dx}{\mathrm dt}=\cos t$
$\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dt}=-\sin t$
$\dfrac{\mathrm dz}{\mathrm dt}=\sec^2t$

Also, since $x^2+y^2+z^2=\sin^2t+\cos^2t+\tan^2t=1+\tan^2t=\sec^2t$ , the derivative is

$\dfrac{\mathrm dw}{\mathrm dt}=\dfrac{\sin t\cos t}{\sec^2t}-\dfrac{\sin t\cos t}{\sec^2t}+\dfrac{\tan t\sec^2t}{\sec^2t}$
$\dfrac{\mathrm dw}{\mathrm dt}=\tan t$

B. same side interior angles are supplementary when two parallel lines are crossed by a transversal (PV and QM are two parallel lines crossed by TL)
c. definition of supplementary angles the definition of supplementary means that they add up to 180 degrees and you concluded in b that <1 and <2 are supplementary
e. definition of congruent angles two angles that are congruent have the same measure
g. definition of supplementary angles two angles that add up to 180 are supplementary
h. if the same side interior angles are supplementary when two lines are intersected by a transversal then the lines are parallel ( TL and VM are intersected by QM and <2 and <3 are supplementary)
