Answer:

No, the equation does not represent a direct variation.

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer is immediately evident: NO. The reason for this is that no direct variation equation includes a vertical intercept.

Here 2y = 5x + 1 becoems y = (5/2)x + 1/2; the y-intercept 1/2 is problematic.

If we were to drop the constant 1, then 2y = 5x, or y = (5/2)x; this represents direct variation with the constant of proportionality 5/2.

15. If x=a Sin2t (I+Cos2t) and y=b Cos 2t (1-Cos2t) then find dy/dx at =22/7*4

Sav [38]

By the chain rule,

$\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}=\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dt}\dfrac{\mathrm dt}{\mathrm dx}\implies\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}=\dfrac{\frac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dt}}{\frac{\mathrm dx}{\mathrm dt}}$

It looks like we're given

$\begin{cases}x=a\sin(2t)(1+\cos(2t))\\y=b\cos(2t)(1-\cos(2t))\end{cases}$

where a and b are presumably constant.

Recall that

$\cos^2t=\dfrac{1+\cos(2t)}2$

$\sin^2t=\dfrac{1-\cos(2t)}2$

so that

$\begin{cases}x=2a\sin(2t)\cos^2t\\y=2b\cos(2t)\sin^2t\end{cases}$

Then we have

$\dfrac{\mathrm dx}{\mathrm dt}=4a\cos(2t)\cos^2t-4a\sin(2t)\cos t\sin t$

$\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dt}=-4b\sin(2t)\sin^2t+4b\cos(2t)\sin t\cos t$

$\implies\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}=\dfrac{4b\cos(2t)\sin t\cos t-4b\sin(2t)\sin^2}{4a\cos(2t)\cos^2t-4a\sin(2t)\cos t\sin t}$

$\implies\boxed{\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}=\dfrac ba\tan t}$

where the last reduction follows from dividing through everything by $\cos(2t)\cos^2t$ and simplifying.

I'm not sure at which point you're supposed to evaluate the derivative (22/7*4, as in 88/7? or something else?), so I'll leave that to you.

How will the metric system be used in your furture career

Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

i feel as if in the United States, both the metric system and the English system of measurement are used, although the English system predominates. This discussion question has three parts:

Look around you to find something in the U.S. that is measured in metrics. Describe it to the class.

Give an example of how you think the metric system will be used in your future career.

Do you think the U.S. should switch to metric system exclusively? Why or why not?

This week we learned about the metric and U.S. customary measurement systems. Please upload and submit your responses to the following questions in at least 150 words:

In reflecting on both measurement systems, what did you find most important?

Explain how both measurement systems could relate to your life, community, or current/future career.

Given the following system of equations: 2x + 6y = 12 4x + 3y = 15 Which action creates an equivalent system that will eliminate

Charra [1.4K]

Option A and B are correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following systems of equation:

$2x + 6y = 12 \\4x + 3y = 15$

We need to identify the action creates an equivalent system that will eliminate one variable when they are combined.

Checking the options:

a) Multiply the second equation by −2 to get −8x − 6y = −30

If we add equation(1) and the new equation(2) the variable y will be eliminated. So, this is the correct option.

b) Multiply the first equation by 2 to get 4x + 12y = 24.

If we subtract new equation(1) and equation(2), the variable x will be eliminated. So, this is the correct option.

c) Multiply the second equation by −4 to get −16x − 12y = −60

By adding or subtracting, none of the variable is eliminated. So, it is not the correct option.

d) Multiply the first equation by −4 to get −8x − 24y = −48.

By adding or subtracting, none of the variable is eliminated. So, it is not the correct option.

So, Option A and B are correct.
