Answer:

y =0

Step-by-step explanation:

From the equation;

8³ × 8⁻⁵×8^y = 8⁻²= 1/8²

From the laws of indices;

aⁿ×aⁿ = a^2n

Therefore;

8³ × 8⁻⁵×8^y = 8^(3+-5+y)

8^(-2+y) = 8^-2 ; but the bases are the same and thus the exponents are the same;

-2 + y = -2

      y = 0

Answer:

The value of y is 0

Step-by-step explanation:

8³ * 8^-5*8^y = 8^-2 or 1/8²

Taking indices of both sides

From first law of indices;

Multiplication sign change to addition; i.e. x^a * x^b = x^(a + b).

So,

8³ * 8^-5*8^y = 8^-2

Becomes

8^(3 + (-5) + y) = 8^-2

Same base of 8 can cancel one another. So, we're left with

3 + (-5) + y = -2

Open the bracket

3 - 5 + y = -2

-2 + y = -2

Make y the subject of formula

y = 2 - 2

y = 0

Hence, the value of y in the equation is 0

Pump 1 can empty a pool in 9 hours while Pump 2 can empty the same pool in 12 hours. If the two pumps worked together, how long
ruslelena [56]

Answer:

About 5 hr 10 min  

Step-by-step explanation:

rate 1   = 1  pool / 9 hrs          rate 2 = 1 pool / 12 hours

now find the time with both rates combined

1 pool / ( 1/9 + 1/12)  =   1/ (7/36)  =   36/7 hr  = 5 1/7 hr = 5 hr 8.6 min

Calculus help with the graph of a integral and finding the following components.
lys-0071 [83]
A)

\bf \displaystyle F(x)=\int\limits_{4}^{\sqrt{x}}\cfrac{2t-1}{t+2}\cdot dt\qquad x=16\implies \displaystyle F(x)=\int\limits_{4}^{\sqrt{16}}\cfrac{2t-1}{t+2}\cdot dt
\\\\\\
\displaystyle F(x)=\int\limits_{4}^{4}\cfrac{2t-1}{t+2}\cdot dt\implies 0


why is 0?  well, the bounds are the same.


b)

let's use the second fundamental theorem of calculus, where F'(x) = dF/du * du/dx

\bf \displaystyle F(x)=\int\limits_{4}^{\sqrt{x}}\cfrac{2t-1}{t+2}\cdot dt\implies F(x)=\int\limits_{4}^{x^{\frac{1}{2}}}\cfrac{2t-1}{t+2}\cdot dt\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
u=x^{\frac{1}{2}}\implies \cfrac{du}{dx}=\cfrac{1}{2}\cdot x^{-\frac{1}{2}}\implies \cfrac{du}{dx}=\cfrac{1}{2\sqrt{x}}\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\

\bf \displaystyle F(x)=\int\limits_{4}^{u}\cfrac{2t-1}{t+2}\cdot dt\qquad F'(x)=\cfrac{dF}{du}\cdot \cfrac{du}{dx}
\\\\\\
\displaystyle\cfrac{d}{du}\left[ \int\limits_{4}^{u}\cfrac{2t-1}{t+2}\cdot dt \right]\cdot \cfrac{du}{dx}\implies \cfrac{2u-1}{u+2}\cdot \cfrac{1}{2\sqrt{x}}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{2\sqrt{x}}{\sqrt{x}+2}\cdot \cfrac{1}{2\sqrt{x}}\implies \cfrac{2\sqrt{x}-1}{2x+4\sqrt{x}}


c)

we know x = 16, we also know from section a) that at that point f(x) = y = 0, so the point is at (16, 0), using section b) let's get the slope,

\bf \left. \cfrac{2\sqrt{x}-1}{2x+4\sqrt{x}} \right|_{x=16}\implies \cfrac{2\sqrt{16}-1}{2(16)+4\sqrt{16}} \implies \cfrac{7}{48}\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
\begin{cases}
x=16\\
y=0\\
m=\frac{7}{48}
\end{cases}\implies \stackrel{\textit{point-slope form}}{y- y_1= m(x- x_1)}\implies y-0=\cfrac{7}{48}(x-16)
\\\\\\
y=\cfrac{7}{48}x-\cfrac{7}{3}\implies y=\cfrac{7}{48}x-2\frac{1}{3}


d)

\bf 0=\cfrac{2\sqrt{x}-1}{2x+4\sqrt{x}}\implies 0=\cfrac{2\sqrt{x}-1}{(\sqrt{x}+2)(2\sqrt{x})}

now, we can get critical points from zeroing out the derivative, we also get critical points from zeroing out the denominator, however, the ones from the denominator are points where the function is not differentiable, namely, is not a smooth curve, is a sharp jump, a cusp, or a spike, and therefore those points are usually asymptotic, however, they're valid critical points, let's check both,

\bf 0=\cfrac{2\sqrt{x}-1}{2x+4\sqrt{x}}\implies 0=\cfrac{2\sqrt{x}-1}{(\sqrt{x}+2)(2\sqrt{x})}\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
0=2\sqrt{x}-1\implies 1=2\sqrt{x}\implies \cfrac{1}{2}=\sqrt{x}\implies \left(\cfrac{1}{2}  \right)^2=x
\\\\\\
\boxed{\cfrac{1}{4}=x}\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
0=(\sqrt{x}+2)(2\sqrt{x})\implies 0=2\sqrt{x}\implies \boxed{0=x}
\\\\\\
0=\sqrt{x}+2\implies -2=\sqrt{x}\implies (-2)^2=x\implies \boxed{4=x}

now, doing a first-derivative test on those regions, we get the values as in the picture below.

so, you can see where is increasing and decreasing.
