Answer:

$2 \frac{9}{28}$ gallons of ice tea is left with Morris

Step-by-step explanation:

Morris has 2 3/4 gallons of ice tea. He gives 3/7 of it to her friend.

Morris has 2 3/4 gallons of ice tea

$2\frac{3}{4}= \frac{2*4+3}{4}=\frac{11}{4}$

He gives 3/7 of it to her friend.

To find how many gallons of ice tea does Morris have left , we subtract 3/7 from 11/4

$\frac{11}{4}- \frac{3}{7}$

Make the denominators same

$\frac{11*7}{4*7}- \frac{3*4}{7*4}$

$\frac{77}{28}- \frac{12}{28}$

$\frac{65}{28}$

$\frac{65}{28} = 2 \frac{9}{28}$

Use implicit differentiation to find the points where the parabola defined by x2−2xy+y2+4x−8y+20=0 has horizontal and vertical t

Komok [63]

Answer:

The parabola has a horizontal tangent line at the point (2,4)

The parabola has a vertical tangent line at the point (1,5)

Step-by-step explanation:

Ir order to perform the implicit differentiation, you have to differentiate with respect to x. Then, you have to use the conditions for horizontal and vertical tangent lines.

-To obtain horizontal tangent lines, the condition is:

$\frac{dy}{dx}=0$ (The slope is zero)

--To obtain vertical tangent lines, the condition is:

$\frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{1}{0}$ (The slope is undefined, therefore the denominator is set to zero)

Derivating respect to x:

$\frac{d(x^{2}-2xy+y^{2}+4x-8y+20)}{dx} = \frac{d(x^{2})}{dx}-2\frac{d(xy)}{dx}+\frac{d(y^{2})}{dx}+4\frac{dx}{dx}-8\frac{dy}{dx}+\frac{d(20)}{dx}$ = $2x -2(y+x\frac{dy}{dx})+2y\frac{dy}{dx}+4-8\frac{dy}{dx}= 0$
