Answer:

A. -4

Step-by-step explanation:

J= Jake's Number

A= Amy's Number

2j = 3j+2

-j = 2

j = -2

check: 2(-2) = 3(-2)+2

-4 = -6+2

-4 = -4 (correct)

Jake's number is -2. Amy's is -4

A driveway has an area of 96 square feet. The width of the driveway is 8 feet.

Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

12 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

A driveway is rectangular in shape.

Therefore we can calculate the area using the formula;

$A = L \times W$

From the question;

The area,A=96 feet square

The width, W=8 feet

We substitute this values into the formula to find the length, L.

This implies that

$96 =L \times 8$

Dividing through by 8.

$\implies \frac{96}{8}= \frac{L \times 8}{8}$

$\implies L = 12$

Hence,the length of the driveway is 12 feet.

The temperature at a point (x, y) is T(x, y), measured in degrees Celsius. A bug crawls so that its position after t seconds is

anastassius [24]

Answer:

The rate of change of temperature is 1.29 degree Celsius per second.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

The temperature at a point (x, y) is T(x, y), measured in degrees Celsius where x and y are measured in centimeters.

$x = \sqrt{2+t}\\\\y = 5 + \displaystyle\frac{1}{14}t$

$T_x(4,6) = 8, T_y(4,6) = 4$

We have to find the rate at which the temperature is rising on the bug's path after 14 seconds.

At t = 14 seconds, we have,

$x = \sqrt{2+14} = 4\\\\y = 5 + \displaystyle\frac{1}{14}(14) = 5+1 = 6$

To find rate of change of temperature, we differentiate,

$\displaystyle\frac{dT}{dt} = \frac{dT}{dx}\frac{dx}{dt} + \frac{dT}{dy}\frac{dy}{dt}\\\\\displaystyle\frac{dT}{dt} = T_x(x,y)(\frac{1}{2\sqrt{2+t}}) + T_y(x,y)\frac{1}{14}\\\\At~ t = 14, x = 4, y = 6\\\\\frac{dT}{dt} = T_x(4,6)(\frac{1}{2\sqrt{2+t}}) + T_y(4,6)\frac{1}{14}\\\\\frac{dT}{dt} = 8\times \frac{1}{8} +4\times \frac{1}{14} = 1 + 0.2857 = 1.2857$

Thus, the rate of change of temperature is 1.29 degree Celsius per second.
