Consider the circle of radius 5 centered at (0, 0). Find an equation of the line tangent to the circle at the point (3, 4) in sl

Wittaler [7]

Answer:

$\displaystyle y= -\frac{3}{4} x + \frac{25}{4}$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a circle of radius $5$ centered at $(0,0)$ is:

$x^{2} + y^{2} = 5^{2}$ .

$x^{2} + y^{2} = 25$ .

Differentiate implicitly with respect to $x$ to find the slope of tangents to this circle.

$\displaystyle \frac{d}{dx}[x^{2} + y^{2}] = \frac{d}{dx}[25]$

$\displaystyle \frac{d}{dx}(x^{2}) + \frac{d}{dx}(y^{2}) = 0$ .

Apply the power rule and the chain rule. Treat $y$ as a function of $x$ , $f(x)$ .

$\displaystyle \frac{d}{dx}(x^{2}) + \frac{d}{dx}(f(x))^{2} = 0$ .

$\displaystyle \frac{d}{dx}(2x) + \frac{d}{dx}(2f(x)\cdot f^{\prime}(x)) = 0$ .

That is:

$\displaystyle \frac{d}{dx}(2x) + \frac{d}{dx}\left(2y \cdot \frac{dy}{dx}\right) = 0$ .

Solve this equation for $\displaystyle \frac{dy}{dx}$ :

$\displaystyle \frac{dy}{dx} = -\frac{x}{y}$ .

The slope of the tangent to this circle at point $(3, 4)$ will thus equal

$\displaystyle \frac{dy}{dx} = -\frac{3}{4}$ .

Apply the slope-point of a line in a cartesian plane:

$y - y_0 = m(x - x_0)$ , where

$m$ is the gradient of this line, and
$(x_0, y_0)$ are the coordinates of a point on that line.

For the tangent line in this question:

$\displaystyle m = -\frac{3}{4}$ ,
$(x_0, y_0) = (3, 4)$ .

The equation of this tangent line will thus be:

$\displaystyle y - 4 = -\frac{3}{4} (x - 3)$ .

That simplifies to

$\displaystyle y= -\frac{3}{4} x + \frac{25}{4}$ .

Help :rewrite 2.267 repeating 67 as a simplifed answer

Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

449/198 or 2 53/198

Step-by-step explanation:

2. 2676767 = x

10x= 22. 67676767

1000x= 2267. 676767

1000x-10x= 2267.676767- 22.67676767

990x= 2245
x= 2245/990
x= 449*5/5*198
x= 449/198
x= 2 53/198

A househusband is cooking beef stew for his family in a pan that is (a) uncovered, (b) covered with a light lid, and (c) covered

raketka [301]

Answer:

Cooking will be shortest when the househusband covers the beef stew with the heavy lid.

Step-by-step explanation:

The explanation for this is that water boils at 100°C at normal atmospheric pressure & it remains at that temperature until all the water evaporates as steam; the temperature can then go higher in steam form.

So, if he leaves the pan uncovered the pressure above the beef stew will be the atmospheric pressure and the temperature of the stew will not pass the 100°C mark and the food cooks at 100°C.

If he places a light lid on top, the pressure will build up & the temperature at which water remains liquid is a bit higher, but eventually the steam will push the lid to escape thereby releasing pressure & reducing the temperature.

If he puts a heavy lid on the pan the pressure can build up the highest and the temperature of the water in the stew will stay the highest ensuring the fastest cooking.

Basically, the heavier the lid, greater the pressure in the pan. As the pressure gets greater, the saturation temperature at which water starts boiling will be higher. And higher boiling temperatures mean shorter cooking times.
