A particle is moving along the parabola x^2=4(y+6). As the particle passes through the point (8,10), the rate of change of its y

-coordinate is 5 units per second. How fast, in units per second, is the x-coordinate changing at this instant?

You'll need to use differentiation (specifically, implicit differentiation) here.

If x^2 = 4(y+6), differentiating both sides with respect to time t produces the following:

2x (dx/dt) = 4([dy/dt])   (note that (d/dt) 6 = 0)

We need to solve for (dx/dt).  Substitute 8 for x (y does not appear in this latest equation, so we do nothing with y=10).  Substitute the given 5 units/sec for dy/dt:

2(8)(dx/dt) = 4(5)(units/sec)

Solving for dx/dt, dx/dt = [20 units/sec]/16, or 5/4 units/sec, or 1.25 units/sec.

1500 families were surveyed and following data was recorded about their maids at homes.
nika2105 [10]

<u>Explanation</u><u>:</u><u>-</u>

Total number of families are surveyed = 1500

Total number of possible outcomes = 1500

Number of part time maids = 860

Number of favourable outcomes to part time maids = 860

Number of only full time maids = 370

Number of favourable outcomes to only full time maids = 370

Number of both type of maids = 250

Number of favourable outcomes to both type of maids = 250

From all families selecting a family randomly is an event then

We know that

Probability of an event =

Number of favourable outcomes/Total number of possible outcomes

1⟩ Probability of getting both type of maids

⇛250/1500

⇛25/150

⇛1/6

Probability of a family has both type of maids= 1/6.

2⟩ Probability of getting Part time maids

= 860/1500

⇛86/150

⇛43/125

Probability of getting Part time maids = 43/125.

3⟩. Number of part time maids =n(P only )=860

Number of only full time maids =n(F only) = 370

Number of both type of maids = n(PnF)= 250

Total number of families are surveyed= n(PUF)

= 1500

number of no maids =

n(PUF)= n(only P)+n(only F)+n(PnF)

= 1500-(860+370+250)

⇛1500-(1480)

⇛20

Number of no maids = 20

Probability of getting no maid = 20/1500

⇛2/150

⇛1/125

Probability of getting no maid = 1/125.

A side of a square is A = 8^(3/2) inches. Using the area formula A = s2, determine the area of the square.?A = 24 square inches
VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

512 square inches

Step-by-step explanation:

If A = s², and s=8^{\frac{3}{2}}, then

A=s^2=(8^{\frac{3}{2}})^2 and

A=s^2=8^{\frac{6}{2}} which simplifies to

A=s^2=8^3 which simplifies to

A=s^2=512

Therefore, if A=s^2 and s^2=512, then

A = 512 square inches

Graph y=6x−7<br> Identify the x-intercept.
valina [46]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  x-intercept: 7/6

Step-by-step explanation:

The x-intercept is found by solving for x when y=0.

  0 = 6x -7

  7 = 6x . . . . . add 7 to both sides of the equation

  7/6 = x . . . . divide both sides by 6

The x-intercept is 7/6 = 1 1/6 ≈ 1.167.

__

The y-intercept is the constant in the given equation: -7. The slope of 6 tells you the line rises 6 units for 1 unit to the right. So, the point (1, -1) is another point on the graph. The line through those two points, (0, -7) and (1, -1), will intersect the x-axis at x=7/6.
