Answer: He would have traveled 248 miles

Explanation: This is a ratio

To find how many miles he would have traveled after 4 hours, we need to apply the information givin into a ration table

(We can put miles on the top and hours on the bottom)

217 ?
------- ------
3.5 4

Now, we can do two things:
1. cross multiply
we would take 217 times 4 (868) and divide that by 3.5 (248)

2. Divide the top and bottom by 3.5 (numerator= 62 denominator= 1)
multiply 62 by 4 to get 248

Hope this helps!

F(x) = lnx/x

My name is Ann [436]

$f(x) = \frac{lnx}{x}$

(a) $f'(x) = \frac{d}{dx}[\frac{lnx}{x}]$
Using the quotient rule:
$f'(x) = \frac{\frac{1}{x} \cdot x - lnx}{x^{2}}$
$f'(x) = \frac{1 - lnx}{x^{2}}$

For maximum, f'(x) = 0;
$\frac{1 - lnx}{x} = 0$
$lnx = 1, x = e$

(b) Deduce:
 $e^{x} \geq x^{e}, x > 0$

Soln: Since x = e is the greatest value, then f(e) ≥ f(x) > f(0)
$\frac{ln(e)}{e} \geq \frac{lnx}{x}$
$\frac{1}{e} \geq \frac{lnx}{x}$ , since ln(e) is simply equal to 1

Now, since x > 0, then we don't have to worry about flipping the signs when multiplying by x.
$\frac{x}{e} \geq lnx$
$x \geq elnx$
$x \geq ln(x^{e})$

Taking the exponential to both sides will cancel with the natural logarithmic function in the right hand side to produce:
$e^{x} \geq e^{ln(x^{e}})$
$e^{x} \geq x^{e}$ , as required.

Function A and Function B are linear functions. Compare the two functions and choose all that are correct.

Olegator [25]

Answer:

2 .The slope of Function A is less than the slope of Function B

Step-by-step explanation:

A graph of Function A shows it has a y-intercept of 4, the same as that of Function B. (Statements 3 and 4 are not correct.)

The slope of Function A is 2, which is less than the slope of 3 that Function B has. (Statement 2 is correct; statement 1 is not.)

_____

More detailed working

The slope of Function A can be figured easily between the points with x-values that differ by 1:

m = (y3 -y2)/(x3 -x2) = (24-22)/(10-9) = 2/1 = 2 . . . . . Fun A has slope of 2.

The slope of Function B is the coefficient of x in the equation: 3.

The y-intercept of Function A can be found starting with point-slope form:

y -22 = 2(x -9)

y = 2x -18 +22

y = 2x +4 . . . . . . . slope-intercept form

The intercept of +4 is the same as that of Function B.
