2.43 + 1.62 + 124.77 = 178.82 Because all you have to do is add up all the numbers (Don't take the decimals out, leave them in) And then you get: 178.82.

Hope I helped!

What is the derivative of y with respect to x if y = 2/X4

zepelin [54]

You're correct, the answer is C.

Given any function of the form $y=x^n$ , then the derivative of y with respect to x ( $\frac{dy}{dx}$ ) is written as:
$\frac{dy}{dx}=nx^n^-^1$

In which $n$ is any constant, this is called the power rule for differentiation.

For this example we have $y= \frac{2}{x^4}$ , first lets get rid of the quotient and write the expression in the form $y=x^n$ :
$y= \frac{2}{x^4} =2x^-^4$

Now we can directly apply the rule stated at the beginning (in which $n=-4$ ):
$\frac{dy}{dx}=(2)(-4)x^{-4-1}=-8 x^{-5}= -\frac{8}{x^5}$

Note that whenever we differentiate a function, we simply "ignore" the constants (we take them out of the derivative).

Three married couples go to a movie theater. if they sit together in a row of 6 empty seats, find the probability that each woma

Ganezh [65]

Given are three married couples.

So, let us assume there are 3 men and 3 women

They are sitting in a row of 6 empty seats

There is a definite order constraint that each woman will sit left to her husband. The first woman gets 3 options to choose from 3 available seats. The second woman has two options left as already one seat is filled by the first woman. The last woman has one option left. So, it is $3*2*1$

So, number of ways is 3! = $3*2*1$ = 6 ways.
