Answer:

he will use 2 posts.

Step-by-step explanation:

the two posts together will make 1 foot, so with one post on each endof the 7 foot deck, that leaves 6 feet between them.

Answer:

2 posts

Step-by-step explanation:

Bob is going to build a deck that is 7 feet long and he is going to use posts that are 6 inches wide = 0.5 feet wide.

He is going to put the posts 6 feet apart and one on each end.

So the first thing will be a post 0.5 feet, and after 6 feet another post of another 0.5 feet, so if we add all of this will be:

0.5 feet + 6 feet + 0.5 feet = 7 feet

So he will only use 2 posts.

HELP MEeeeeeeeee g: R² → R a differentiable function at (0, 0), with g (x, y) = 0 only at the point (x, y) = (0, 0). Consider<im

GrogVix [38]

(a) This follows from the definition for the partial derivative, with the help of some limit properties and a well-known limit.

• Recall that for $f:\mathbb R^2\to\mathbb R$ , we have the partial derivative with respect to $x$ defined as

$\displaystyle \frac{\partial f}{\partial x} = \lim_{h\to0}\frac{f(x+h,y) - f(x,y)}h$

The derivative at (0, 0) is then

$\displaystyle \frac{\partial f}{\partial x}(0,0) = \lim_{h\to0}\frac{f(0+h,0) - f(0,0)}h$

• By definition of $f$ , $f(0,0)=0$ , so

$\displaystyle \frac{\partial f}{\partial x}(0,0) = \lim_{h\to0}\frac{f(h,0)}h = \lim_{h\to0}\frac{\tan^2(g(h,0))}{h\cdot g(h,0)}$

• Expanding the tangent in terms of sine and cosine gives

$\displaystyle \frac{\partial f}{\partial x}(0,0) = \lim_{h\to0}\frac{\sin^2(g(h,0))}{h\cdot g(h,0) \cdot \cos^2(g(h,0))}$

• Introduce a factor of $g(h,0)$ in the numerator, then distribute the limit over the resulting product as

$\displaystyle \frac{\partial f}{\partial x}(0,0) = \lim_{h\to0}\frac{\sin^2(g(h,0))}{g(h,0)^2} \cdot \lim_{h\to0}\frac1{\cos^2(g(h,0))} \cdot \lim_{h\to0}\frac{g(h,0)}h$

• The first limit is 1; recall that for $a\neq0$ , we have

$\displaystyle\lim_{x\to0}\frac{\sin(ax)}{ax}=1$

The second limit is also 1, which should be obvious.

• In the remaining limit, we end up with

$\displaystyle \frac{\partial f}{\partial x}(0,0) = \lim_{h\to0}\frac{g(h,0)}h = \lim_{h\to0}\frac{g(h,0)-g(0,0)}h$

and this is exactly the partial derivative of $g$ with respect to $x$ .

$\displaystyle \frac{\partial f}{\partial x}(0,0) = \lim_{h\to0}\frac{g(h,0)-g(0,0)}h = \frac{\partial g}{\partial x}(0,0)$

For the same reasons shown above,

$\displaystyle \frac{\partial f}{\partial y}(0,0) = \frac{\partial g}{\partial y}(0,0)$

(b) To show that $f$ is differentiable at (0, 0), we first need to show that $f$ is continuous.

• By definition of continuity, we need to show that

$\left|f(x,y)-f(0,0)\right|$

is very small, and that as we move the point $(x,y)$ closer to the origin, $f(x,y)$ converges to $f(0,0)$ .

We have

$\left|f(x,y)-f(0,0)\right| = \left|\dfrac{\tan^2(g(x,y))}{g(x,y)}\right| \\\\ = \left|\dfrac{\sin^2(g(x,y))}{g(x,y)^2}\cdot\dfrac{g(x,y)}{\cos^2(g(x,y))}\right| \\\\ = \left|\dfrac{\sin(g(x,y))}{g(x,y)}\right|^2 \cdot \dfrac{|g(x,y)|}{\cos^2(x,y)}$

The first expression in the product is bounded above by 1, since $|\sin(x)|\le|x|$ for all $x$ . Then as $(x,y)$ approaches the origin,

$\displaystyle\lim_{(x,y)\to(0,0)}\frac{|g(x,y)|}{\cos^2(x,y)} = 0$

So, $f$ is continuous at the origin.

• Now that we have continuity established, we need to show that the derivative exists at (0, 0), which amounts to showing that the rate at which $f(x,y)$ changes as we move the point $(x,y)$ closer to the origin, given by

$\left|\dfrac{f(x,y)-f(0,0)}{\sqrt{x^2+y^2}}\right|,$

approaches 0.

Just like before,

$\left|\dfrac{\tan^2(g(x,y))}{g(x,y)\sqrt{x^2+y^2}}\right| = \left|\dfrac{\sin^2(g(x,y))}{g(x,y)}\right|^2 \cdot \left|\dfrac{g(x,y)}{\cos^2(g(x,y))\sqrt{x^2+y^2}}\right| \\\\ \le \dfrac{|g(x,y)|}{\cos^2(g(x,y))\sqrt{x^2+y^2}}$

and this converges to $g(0,0)=0$ , since differentiability of $g$ means

$\displaystyle \lim_{(x,y)\to(0,0)}\frac{g(x,y)-g(0,0)}{\sqrt{x^2+y^2}}=0$

So, $f$ is differentiable at (0, 0).

Plz help meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

iren2701 [21]

Answer:

88 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The given bicycle has a tyre that is 28 inches in diameter.

How far the bicycle moves forward each time the wheel goes around is the circumference of the bicycle tyre.

This is calculated using the formula:

C =\pi \: d

We substitute the diameter and

\pi = \frac{22}{7}

C = \frac{22}{7} \times 28

This simplifies to

C =22 \times 4

88 \: inches

Linda bought a cube jewelry box. The volume of the jewelry box is 64 cubic inches. What is the edge length of Linda’s jewelry bo

yawa3891 [41]

Answer:

The edge length will be equal to 4 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a cube = s * s * s (in which s represent side of the cube)

V = s * s * s

V = s³

64 = s³

64 = 4³

So edge length of the cube will be 4 inches.
