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})

Eleri has 97 cents credit on her phone it costs 6 cents to send a message. How many people can eleri send a message to? Explain
Leona [35]
16 people. Divide 97 by 6 and you get 16.16 but you can’t send a message to a .16 of a person so it’s just 16 people.
