Hello, and thank you for posting your question here on brainly.

We have a trick in my school named "the cupid rule", where if you're subtracting a negative that's in parenthesis, we put a ♥ over the two negatives, and turn it into a positive, so now it's 7 + 15.

(it's 22)

Hope this helps! ☺♥

Answer:

1 * 10^12

Step-by-step explanation:

Scientific notation is a representation of a large number in a short form. The answer, 1*10^12 (read as ten to the twelfth power) essentially says that the number when expanded is 1 with 12 zeros appended to it. If you did a number like 7 trillion you would have 7 * 10^12.

Same thing can be applied for 1,000,000 (one million).

1 * 10^6 because one million has 6 zeros appended to it.

Answer:

It would roll in this direction.

\nu  =  (-a/\sqrt{a^2+b^2},-b/\sqrt{a^2+b^2})

Step-by-step explanation:

It would roll to the direction of maximum decrease, which is the -1 times the direction of maximum increase, which is given by the gradient of the function.  

Since  

z =  ax^2  + by^2

For this case, the gradient of your function would be

\nabla z  = (2ax , 2by)

And  -1  times the gradient of your function would be

-\nabla z  = (-2ax , -2by)\\

Then, at

 (1,1,a+b),\\x = 1 \\y = 1

So it would go towards

v = (-2a,-2b)

The magnitud of that vector is

|v| =  2\sqrt{a^2+b^2}

and to conclude it would roll in this direction.

\nu  =  (-a/\sqrt{a^2+b^2},-b/\sqrt{a^2+b^2})
