What is the area of the object above?

valina [46]

Your answer is 104 square inches because you have to find the area of the top rectangle by multiplying 12 x 7, then find the area of the bottom square by multiplying 5 x 4, and then add both answers together which equals 104 square centimeters ;)

A bacteria sample can be modeled by the function f(x) - 350(1.20) which gives the number of bacteria in the sample at the end of

marissa [1.9K]

Answer: A) The initial number of bacteria is 350.

Step-by-step explanation:

Exponential growth equation: $f(x)=A(1+r)^x$ , where A=Initial value, r= growth rate. (i)

Given: A bacteria sample can be modeled by the function $f(x) = 350(1.20)$ which gives the number of bacteria in the sample at the end of x days.

Here, $f(x)=350(1+0.20)$

Compare this equation to (i) , we get A = 350 and r= 0.20 = 20% (growth rate)

So, the best interpretation of one of the values in this function are:

A) The initial number of bacteria is 350.

The number of salmon swimming upstream to spawn is approximated by the following function:

umka2103 [35]

Answer:

The water temperature that produces the maximum number of salmon swimming upstream is approximately 12.305 degrees Celsius.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let $S(x) = -x^{3}+2\cdot x^{2}+405\cdot x +4965$ , for $6 \leq x \leq 20$ . $x$ represents the temperature of the water, measured in degrees Celsius, and $S$ is the number of salmon swimming upstream to spawn, dimensionless.

We compute the first and second derivatives of the function:

$S'(x) = -3\cdot x^{2}+4\cdot x +405$ (Eq. 1)

$S''(x) = -6\cdot x +4$ (Eq. 2)

Then we equalize (Eq. 1) to zero and solve for $x$ :

$-3\cdot x^{2}+4\cdot x +405 = 0$

And all roots are found by Quadratic Formula:

$x_{1} \approx 12.305\,^{\circ}C$ , $x_{2}\approx -10.971\,^{\circ}C$

Only the first root is inside the given interval of the function. Hence, the correct answer is:

$x \approx 12.305\,^{\circ}C$

Now we evaluate the second derivative at given result. That is:

$S''(12.305) = -6\cdot (12.305)+4$

$S''(12.305) = -69.83$

According to the Second Derivative Test, a negative value means that critical value leads to a maximum. In consequence, the water temperature that produces the maximum number of salmon swimming upstream is approximately 12.305 degrees Celsius.

If xy + y² = 6, then the value of dy/dx at x= -1 is<br>

mylen [45]

Hi there!

$\large\boxed{\text{At (-1, -2), }\frac{dy}{dx} = -\frac{2}{5}}}$

$\large\boxed{\text{At (-1, 3), }\frac{dy}{dx} = -\frac{3}{5}}}$

We can calculate dy/dx using implicit differentiation:

xy + y² = 6

Differentiate both sides. Remember to use the Product Rule for the "xy" term:

(1)y + x(dy/dx) + 2y(dy/dx) = 0

Move y to the opposite side:

x(dy/dx) + 2y(dy/dx) = -y

Factor out dy/dx:

dy/dx(x + 2y) = -y

Divide both sides by x + 2y:

dy/dx = -y/x + 2y

We need both x and y to find dy/dx, so plug in the given value of x into the original equation:

-1(y) + y² = 6

-y + y² = 6

y² - y - 6 = 0

(y - 3)(y + 2) = 0

Thus, y = -2 and 3.

We can calculate dy/dx at each point:

At y = -2: dy/dx = -(-2) / -1+ 2(-2) = -2/5.

At y = 3: dy/dx = -(3) / -1 + 2(3) = -3/5.
