Okay so we know difference means to subtract, and we know by saying "a number" they mean the value is unknown. Since idk if you have to use a specific variable for this problem, I'll use n as an example. So it's basically saying we're subtracting 12 from an unknown number and that it'll equal 20. So the equation would be n-12=20.

Find an equation for a tangent plane z=e-x2-y2 at the point (0,0,1).
Nadya [2.5K]

Answer: equation of the tangent plane is z = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation

z = e^(-x²-y²) at point (0,0,1)

now let z = f(x,y)

Δf(x,y) = [ fx, fy ]

= (-2xe^(-x²-y²)), (-2ye^(-x²-y²))

now

Δf (0,0) = [ 0, 0 ] = [ a, b ]

equation of the tangent plane therefore will be

z - z₀ = a(x-x₀) + b(y-y₀)

z - 1 = 0(x-0) + 0(y-0)

z - 1 = 0 + 0

z = 1

Therefore equation of the tangent plane is z = 1

Tickets for the school concert were 3$ and 2$. If 245 tickets were sold for a total of $630, how much of each kind were sold?
Hatshy [7]
2x + 3y = 630
x + y = 245 then you want to get rid of x so in the second equation × by -2 and get -2x -2y =-490 subtract this equation from the first to get y=$140 substitute 140 in for y and get x= $105 and 2x=210 and 3y=420 210 +420=630

stiks02 [169]

Answer:

hello,

Step-by-step explanation:

u_1=2=2*3^0\\u_2=6=2*3^1\\u_3=18=2*3^2\\u_4=54=2*3^3\\\\....\\u_n=2*3^{n-1}\geq 100000\\\\3^{n-1}\geq 50000\\\\(n-1)*ln(3)\geq ln(50000)\\\\n-1\geq 9,848586...\\\\n\geq 10.848586....\\\\\boxed{n=11}\\
