Find dy/dt at x = -2 if y = -2x^2 - 5 and dx/dt = -5 dy/dt = ???

$\frac{dy}{dt}=-40

Solution:

Given data:

y=-2 x^{2}-5 and \frac{dx}{dt}=-5

To find \frac{dy}{dt}:

y=-2 x^{2}-5

Differentiate y with respect to t.

$\frac{dy}{dt}=\frac{d}{dt}(-2x^2-5)

$\frac{dy}{dt}=\frac{d}{dt}(-2x^2)-\frac{d}{dt}(5)

Apply the differentiation rule: \frac{d}{d x}\left(x^{n}\right)=n \cdot x^{n-1}

$\frac{dy}{dt}=2(-2x^{2-1})\cdot \frac{dx}{dt} -\frac{d}{dt}(5)

$\frac{dy}{dt}=-4x\cdot \frac{dx}{dt} -\frac{d}{dt}(5)

Apply the differentiation rule: \frac{d}{dt}a=0

$\frac{dy}{dt}=-4x\cdot \frac{dx}{dt} -0

$\frac{dy}{dt}=-4x\cdot \frac{dx}{dt}

At x = –2 and \frac{dx}{dt}=-5

$\frac{dy}{dt}=-4(-2)\cdot (-5)

$\frac{dy}{dt}=-40

Therefore, \frac{dy}{dt}=-40.

A 20 foot ladder leaning against a wall is used to reach a window that is 17 feet above the ground. How far from the wall is the
GarryVolchara [31]

The bottom of the ladder is 10.5 feet away from the wall

Step-by-step explanation:

The given scenario forms a right triangle.

Where

The length of ladder will be the hypotenuse

The wall on which the window is situated will ebt he perpendicular and

The distance between the foot of ladder and the wall will be the base

So,

Hypotenuse = H = 20 foot

Perpendicular = P = 17 feet

Base = B = ?

Using the Pythagoras theorem

H^2=P^2+B^2\\(20)^2=(17)^2+B^2\\400=289+B^2\\400-289=B^2\\B^2=111\\Taking\ square\ root\ on\ both\ sides\\\sqrt{B^2}=\sqrt{111}\\B=10.53\\Rounding\ off\ to\ the\ nearest\ tenth\\B=10.5

The bottom of the ladder is 10.5 feet away from the wall

The base fare per ride on the MTA bus or subway is $2.75, but you get a 5% discount with a purchase. A weekly unlimited MetroCar
Nikolay [14]

"13" or "more than 13" rides will make the weekly unlimited pass more cost effective. A further solution is provided below.

The given values are:

  • Base fare per ride = $2.75
  • Discount = 5%
  • Weekly unlimited Metro Card costs = $32

The Fare after discount will be:

= 2.75\times \frac{100-5}{100}

= 2.75\times \frac{95}{100}

= 2.75\times 0.95

= 2.6125 ($)

hence,

In $32, the minimum number of rides will be:

= \frac{32}{2.6125}

= 12.24

or,

= 13
