Answer:

D_\overrightarrow{\rm v} h(r,s,t)=(\frac{2}{7}\overrightarrow{\rm i})*(\frac{1}{r+2s+3t})+(\frac{6}{7}\overrightarrow{\rm j})*(\frac{2}{r+2s+3t})+(\frac{3}{7}\overrightarrow{\rm k})*(\frac{3}{r+2s+3t})

Step-by-step explanation:

First,  let’s check to see if the direction vector is a unit vector:

||v||=\sqrt{(14)^{2} +(42)^{2} +(21)^{2}   } =\sqrt{2401} =49

It’s not a unit vector. therefore let's divide the vector by its magnitude in order to convert it into a unit vector:

\overrightarrow{\rm v}=(\frac{14}{49}\overrightarrow{\rm i})+(\frac{42}{49}\overrightarrow{\rm j})+(\frac{21}{49}\overrightarrow{\rm k})= (\frac{2}{7}\overrightarrow{\rm i})+(\frac{6}{7}\overrightarrow{\rm j})+(\frac{3}{7}\overrightarrow{\rm k})

Now, the directional derivative is given by:

D_\overrightarrow{\rm v} h(r,s,t)=\frac{\partial h(r,s,t)}{\partial r}\overrightarrow{\rm i} + \frac{\partial h(r,s,t)}{\partial s}\overrightarrow{\rm j} + \frac{\partial h(r,s,t)}{\partial t}\overrightarrow{\rm k}

So let's calculate the partial derivates:

\frac{\partial }{\partial r} ln(3r+6s+9t)=\frac{3}{3r+6s+9t}=\frac{1}{r+2s+3t}

\frac{\partial }{\partial s} ln(3r+6s+9t)=\frac{6}{3r+6s+9t}=\frac{2}{r+2s+3t}

\frac{\partial }{\partial t} ln(3r+6s+9t)=\frac{9}{3r+6s+9t}=\frac{3}{r+2s+3t}

Therefore:

D_\overrightarrow{\rm v} h(r,s,t)=(\frac{2}{7}\overrightarrow{\rm i})*(\frac{1}{r+2s+3t})+(\frac{6}{7}\overrightarrow{\rm j})*(\frac{2}{r+2s+3t})+(\frac{3}{7}\overrightarrow{\rm k})*(\frac{3}{r+2s+3t})

Juliette [100K]

Answer:

95% Confidence interval:  (31.32%,47.04%)

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Sample size, n = 148

Number of people who sleep for 8 hours or longer, x = 58

\hat{p} = \dfrac{x}{n} = \dfrac{58}{148} = 0.3918

95% Confidence interval:

\hat{p}\pm z_{stat}\sqrt{\dfrac{\hat{p}(1-\hat{p})}{n}}

z_{critical}\text{ at}~\alpha_{0.05} = 1.96

Putting the values, we get:

0.3918\pm 1.96(\sqrt{\dfrac{0.3918(1-0.3918)}{148}})\\\\ = 0.3918\pm 0.0786\\\\=(0.3132,0.4704)=(31.32\%,47.04\%)

(31.32%,47.04%)  is the required 95% confidence interval.

Write the equation in slope-intercept form of the line that has a slope of 2 and contains
mina [271]

Equation in slope-intercept form is y = 2x - 6

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Step 1: Given slope of the line, m = 2. Form an equation y = mx + b

⇒ y = 2x + b ---- (1)

  • Step 2: The line passes through the point (4,2). So it will satisfy the equation. Find b by substituting x = 4 and y = 2.

⇒ 2 = 2 × 4 + b = 8 + b

⇒ b = -6

  • Step 3: Form the slope-intercept equation.

⇒ y = 2x - 6
