Answer:

So let's find out!

Step-by-step explanation:

20 percent= 20/100

Now, to make a proportion:

(Let x=Tip)

$\frac{20}{100} =\frac{x}{177} \\100x=3540\\x=35.4$

We know the amount of the tip, now we need to find how much each person has to contribute:

(let y=$ everyone has to contribute)

$9y=35.4+177\\9y=212.4\\y=23.6$

There we go!

Each Person has to contribute $23 and 60 cents!

Hope this helps!

P.S. Stay Safe!

Find the derivative of ln(cosx²).

RoseWind [281]

Answer:

$\displaystyle \frac{dy}{dx} = -2x \tan (x^2)$

General Formulas and Concepts:

Calculus

Differentiation

Derivatives
Derivative Notation

Basic Power Rule:

f(x) = cxⁿ
f’(x) = c·nxⁿ⁻¹

Derivative Rule [Chain Rule]: $\displaystyle \frac{d}{dx}[f(g(x))] =f'(g(x)) \cdot g'(x)$

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

Identify

$\displaystyle y = \ln (\cos x^2)$

Step 2: Differentiate

Logarithmic Differentiation [Derivative Rule - Chain Rule]: $\displaystyle y' = \frac{(\cos x^2)'}{\cos x^2}$
Trigonometric Differentiation [Derivative Rule - Chain Rule]: $\displaystyle y' = \frac{-\sin x^2 (x^2)'}{\cos x^2}$
Basic Power Rule: $\displaystyle y' = \frac{-2x \sin x^2}{\cos x^2}$
Rewrite [Trigonometric Identities]: $\displaystyle y' = -2x \tan (x^2)$
