Hello!

So 4/4 - 3/4 = 1/4 (a quarter). So we have to find a quarter of 3/8 and add it to 3/8. First of all, we have to convert 1/4 to a percentage. The answer is 25%. 3/8 as a decimal is 0.375. 25% of 0.375 = (0.25 x 0.375 =) 0.09375.
0.09375 + 0.375 = 0.46875.
Now, we have to convert 0.46875 back into a fraction.

So the answer is 5/64.

Have a great day! :)

Write an inequality that represents the graph.

Anika [276]

Answer:

$y - 2x - 1 = 0$

Step-by-step explanation:

the slope is :

$\tan( \alpha ) = 4 \div 2 = 2$

at a pt on graph , when

$x = 1 \\ y = 3 \\$

therefore, coordinates are (1,3)

The equation is :

$(y - 3) = slope \times (x - 1) \\ (y - 3) = 2 \times (x - 1) \\ y - 3 = 2x - 2 \\ y - 2x - 1 = 0$

Finding Derivatives Implicity In Exercise, find dy/dx implicity.<br> x2 - 3 ln y + y2 = 10

Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

$\frac{dy}{dx}=-\frac{2xy}{2y^2-3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

$x^2-3lny+y^2=0$

Differentiate w.r.t x

$2x-\frac{3}{y}\frac{dy}{dx}+2y\frac{dy}{dx}=0$

By using formula

$\frac{dx^n}{dx}=nx^{n-1}$

$\frac{d(lnx)}{dx}=\frac{1}{x}$

$\frac{dy^n}{dx}=ny^{n-1}\frac{dy}{dx}$

$\frac{dy}{dx}(-\frac{3}{y}+2y)+2x=0$

$\frac{dy}{dx}(-\frac{3}{y}+2y)=-2x$

$\frac{dy}{dx}=-\frac{2x}{-\frac{3}{y}+2y}$

$\frac{dy}{dx}=-\frac{2xy}{2y^2-3}$

Hence, the derivative of function

$\frac{dy}{dx}=-\frac{2xy}{2y^2-3}$

use the tangent ratio to find the missing leg of the right triangle estimate your answer to two decimal places

Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

y = 5.595090517 or approximately 5.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Tan47 = 6/y

y x Tan47/Tan47 = 6/Tan47

y = 5.595090517 or approximately 5.6

Find the value of x. If necessary, round your answer to the nearest tenth. The figure is not drawn to scale. (1 point) 9.7 9.2 9

Vilka [71]

X= 9.2

From the figure, the chord (12) is drawn with a line (from the center of the circle) perpendicular to it. It can be said that the chord 12 is bisected by the 7 long line from the center which gives us with 6 each of the two parts of the chord. Since they are forming (the 6 and 7) a right angled triangle, we can then use Pythagorean theorem to find X, which can be seen as the radius at the same time hypotenuse of the right angled triangle.
