Answer:
B. 3
Step-by-step explanation:
If all you want is a numerical result, sometimes a graphing calculator can provide that easily. The attachment shows it calculates the slope at x=4 to be 3.
dy/dx = 3 at x = 4
__
The derivative of the expression can be found from the quotient formula:
d(u/v) = (du·v -u·dv)/v²
y' = ((x -2)(2x -7) -(x^2 -7x +2)(1))/(x -2)^2
= (2x^2 -11x +14 -x^2 +7x -2)/(x -2)^2
= (x^2 -4x +12)/(x -2)^2
= ((x -4)x +12)/(x -2)^2
Then for x=4, we have ...
y' = 12/4 = 3
dy/dx = 3 at x = 4
Answer:
0.025
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that the arrival time of a professor to her office is uniformly distributed in the interval between 8 and 9 A.M.
If the professor did not arrive till 8.20 he will arrive between 8.21 and 8.40
Hence probability for arriving after 8.20 is 1/40
Prob he arrives at exactly 8.21 is 1/60
To find the probability that professor will arrive in the next minute given that she has not arrived by 8: 20.
= Prob that the professor arrives at 8.21/Prob he has not arrived by 8.20
This is conditional probability and hence
=
