Given:-   r(t)=< at^2+1,t>  ; -\infty < t< \infty , where a is any positive real number.

Consider the helix parabolic equation :  

                                              r(t)=< at^2+1,t>

now, take the derivatives we get;

                                            r{}'(t)=

As, we know that two vectors are orthogonal if their dot product is zero.

Here,  r(t) and r{}'(t)  are orthogonal i.e,   r\cdot r{}'=0

Therefore, we have ,

                                  < at^2+1,t>\cdot < 2at,1>=0

< at^2+1,t>\cdot < 2at,1>=

                                              =2a^2t^3+2at+t

2a^2t^3+2at+t=0

take t common in above equation we get,

t\cdot \left (2a^2t^2+2a+1\right )=0

⇒t=0 or 2a^2t^2+2a+1=0

To find the solution for t;

take 2a^2t^2+2a+1=0

The numberD = b^2 -4ac determined from the coefficients of the equation ax^2 + bx + c = 0.

The determinant D=0-4(2a^2)(2a+1)=-8a^2\cdot(2a+1)

Since, for any positive value of a determinant is negative.

Therefore, there is no solution.

The only solution, we have t=0.

Hence, we have only one points on the parabola  r(t)=< at^2+1,t> i.e <1,0>

Answer:

4x^{3} y^{2} (\sqrt[3]{4 x y})

Step-by-step explanation:

Another complex expression, let's simplify it step by step...

We'll start by re-writing 256 as 4^4

\sqrt[3]{256 x^{10} y^{7} } = \sqrt[3]{4^{4} x^{10} y^{7} }

Then we'll extract the 4 from the cubic root.  We will then subtract 3 from the exponent (4) to get to a simple 4 inside, and a 4 outside.

\sqrt[3]{4^{4} x^{10} y^{7} } = 4 \sqrt[3]{4 x^{10} y^{7} }

Now, we have x^10, so if we divide the exponent by the root factor, we get 10/3 = 3 1/3, which means we will extract x^9 that will become x^3 outside and x will remain inside.

4 \sqrt[3]{4 x^{10} y^{7} } = 4x^{3} \sqrt[3]{4 x y^{7} }

For the y's we have y^7 inside the cubic root, that means the true exponent is y^(7/3)... so we can extract y^2 and 1 y will remain inside.

4x^{3} \sqrt[3]{4 x y^{7} } = 4x^{3} y^{2} \sqrt[3]{4 x y}

The answer is then:

4x^{3} y^{2} \sqrt[3]{4 x y} = 4x^{3} y^{2} (\sqrt[3]{4 x y})

A rectangle has an area of 36 square units. As the length and the width change, what do you know about their product? Is this le
m_a_m_a [10]
Area = 36 = length*width

Then, while the area is constant the product length*width is constant.

Length and area are inversely related.

That means that to keep the same product (area), length vary in inverse proportion to width.

If you increase length, widht has to decrease to satisfy this relation:

width = 36/length

Of course, you can also say: length = 36 / width.

aev [14]

Answer: d.3,500 + 0.06x > 4,000 + 0.04x

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to write each inequality:

Jose earns a monthly salary of $3,500 plus a 6% commission on his sales, x.

So, his monthly earnings must be equal to the sum of the fixed monthly salary ($3500) plus the product of the number of sales (x) and the commission percentage in decimal form (divided by 100):

So:

Jose’s earnings: 3,500 + x (6/100)

Jose’s earnings: 3,500 + 0.06x

Maris earns a monthly salary of $4,000 plus a 4% commission on her sales.

So, her monthly earnings must be equal to the sum of the fixed monthly salary ($4000) plus the product of the number of sales (x) and the commission percentage in decimal form (divided by 100):

Maris’ earnings: 4000+ x (4/100)

Maris’ earnings: 4000+ 0.04 x

Since Jose's earnings must be greater than Maris' earnings

3,500 + 0.06x >4000+ 0.04 x
