X PLEASE ANSWERRRRR AS SOON AS POSSIBLE

Y = (x)^(1/9)*Find f(x) when x=(1/2)Round your answer to the nearest thousandth.

Verizon [17]

We are given a function f ( x ) defined as follows:

$y=f(x)=x^{\frac{1}{9}}$

We are to determine the value of f ( x ) when,

$\times\text{ = }\frac{1}{2}$

In such cases, we plug in/substitue the given value of x into the expressed function f ( x ) as follows:

$y\text{ = f ( }\frac{1}{2}\text{ ) = (}\frac{1}{2})^{\frac{1}{9}}$

We will apply the power on both numerator and denominator as follows:

$f(\frac{1}{2})=\frac{1^{\frac{1}{9}}}{2^{\frac{1}{9}}}\text{ = }\frac{1}{2^{\frac{1}{9}}}$

Now we evaluate ( 2 ) raised to the power of ( 1 / 9 ).

$f\text{ ( }\frac{1}{2}\text{ ) = }\frac{1}{1.08005}$

Next apply the division operation as follows:

$f\text{ ( }\frac{1}{2})\text{ = }0.92587$

Once, we have evaluated the answer in decimal form ( 5 decimal places ). We will round off the answer to nearest thousandths.

Rounding off to nearest thousandth means we consider the thousandth decimal place ( 3rd ). Then we have the choice of either truncating the decimal places ( 4th and onwards ). The truncation only occurs when (4th decimal place) is < 5.

However, since the (4th decimal place) = 8 > 5. Then we add ( 1 ) to the 3rd decimal place and truncate the rest of the decimal places i.e ( 4th and onwards ).

The answer to f ( 1 / 2 ) to the nearest thousandth would be:

$\textcolor{#FF7968}{f}\text{\textcolor{#FF7968}{ ( }}\textcolor{#FF7968}{\frac{1}{2})}\text{\textcolor{#FF7968}{ = 0.926}}$

Ln(1/e^2) without calculator

castortr0y [4]

Once you remember the definition of a log, the answer to this question will literally fall out of your pencil.

First, ' Ln ' means 'natural log' ... logs to the base of ' e '.

Definition of the natural log of a number:
In order to get the number, what power do I have to raise ' e ' to ?

OK. What power do you have to raise ' e ' to in order to get 1/e² ?

Isn't 1/e² the same thing as e⁻² ?

So, in order to get 1/e² , you have to raise ' e ' to the -2 power .

In math-speak: Ln(1/e²) = -2 .

A hot air balloon rising vertically is tracked by an observer located 5 miles from the lift-off point. At a certain moment, the

Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

aThe person and the hot air balloon form a right triangle, with the lift-off point as the vertex that form the right angle. If you were to try to solve for the height of the balloon, you would need to use tangent to do so:

tanθ = opp/adj = y/x

y = xtanθ

What this problem ultimately wants to know, is how the distance of the balloon is changing with respect to time: dy/dt. So we need to take the derivative of the above equation (you need to product rule to do so):

dy/dt = (dx/dt)tanθ + xsec2θ(dθ/dt)

We need to find out values for all of the variables:

The observer is not moving, therefore dx/dt = 0.

The observer is standing 4 miles away from the lift-off point, so x = 4.

The angle between the horizontal and the observer's line of sight is π/3, therefore θ = π/3.

The rate of change for the angle, dθ/dt, is 0.1.

Just plug all the numbers in:

dy/dt = (0)tan(π/3) + (4)sec2(π/3)(0.1)

dy/dt = 0 + 1.6

dy/dt = 1.6 mi/min

Jordan lives 6 kilometers due south of his parents' house and 4 kilometers west of his grandparents' house. On his birthday, Jor

rusak2 [61]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The direction of movement of Jordan on his birthday forms a right angle triangle. His movement from his house to his parents due south represents the opposite side of the right angle triangle. His movement due west represents the adjacent side and the movement back home along the straight line, d represents the hypotenuse. To determine d, we would apply the Pythagorean theorem. Thus

d² = 6² + 4² = 52

d = √52 = 7.2 km

The total distance that he drove on his birthday is

6 + 4 + 7.2 = 17.2 km

what is the solution to this system of equations (Use the elimination method by multiplying the first equation by 3.) 2x+y=20 6x

user100 [1]

Answer:

(7, 6)

Step-by-step explanation:

multiply first eq. by 3 to get 6x - 3y = 60

now do

6x + 3y = 60

- 6x - 5y = 12

--------------------

8y = 48

solve for y: y = 6

with this y value, plug it in to the first equation (easier to solve) and get 2x + 6 = 20

solve for x and get x = 7

so ans is (7, 6)
