Hey I’m having trouble finding out how to divide fractions

1 answer:

5 0

The first step to dividing fractions is to find the reciprocal (reverse the numerator and denominator) of the second fraction. Next, multiply the two numerators. Then, multiply the two denominators. Finally, simplify the fractions if needed.

Step-by-step explanation:

This seems to be calculus 1.

Question a

We have $-2x^3 + 5x^2 + 9$

m = slope = derivative

Find the derivative / slope of $-2x^3 + 5x^2 + 9$

We do this by differentiating the polynomials. There are a few methods to do this but I am going to use the power rule, which we multiply the constant by the exponent on the variable and subtract one from the exponent.

$\frac{d}{dx}(-2x^3 + 5x^2 + 9)$

$-6x^2 + 10x$

$m = -6x^2 + 10x$ when x = a

Now that we have this information, we can answer question b

Question b

The tangent line for Point (1, 12)

First find the slope by using our derivative.

$m = -6x^2 + 10x$

$m = -6(1)^2 + 10(1)$

$m = -6 + 10x$

$m = 4$

Now that we have our slope, use point slope form to find our tangent line

$y - 12 = 4(x - 1)$

$y(x) = 4x + 8$

Now lets do the same for the Point (2, 13)

Find the slope at the point.

$m = -6x^2 + 10x$

$m = -6(2)^2 + 10(2)$

$m = -24 + 10$

$m = -4$

Now find the tangent line using point slope form of a line.

$y(x) - 13 = -4(x - 2)$

$y(x) = -4x + 21$

Now graph the lines, which I have done and you can see by viewing the image I have attached.

when a pen is sold at a discount of 15%, there is a gain of Rs 10. but if it is sold at 25% discount, there is a loss of Rs 2. f

LenaWriter [7]

Answer:

Rs 120.

Step-by-step explanation:

10=0.85SP-CP; CP+10=0.85SP; SP=[CP+10]/0.85 Eq 1. Let SP= Selling Price and CP= Cost Price

-2 =0.75SP-CP; 0.75SP=C-2; SP=[CP-2]/0.75 Eq 2

[CP+10]/0.85=[CP-2]/0.75 : SP of Eq 1=SP of Eq 2

0.75[CP+10]=0.85[CP-2]

0.75CP+7.5=0.85CP-1.7

0.85CP-0.75CP=-1.7–7.5=9.2

0.10CP=9.2; CP=9.2/0.10

CP=Rs 92 Cost Price of pen

10=0.85SP-92; 0.85SP=92+10=102; SP=102/0.85=Rs 120 Marked Price of pen (answer)

From Eq2: -2=0.75SP-CP; 0.75SP=CP-2=92–2=90; SP=90/0.75=Rs120; -2=0.75(120)-CP; CP-2=0.75(120); CP-2=90; CP=90+2=Rs 92

Set CP of Eq 1=CP of Eq 2:

CP=0.85SP-10 from Eq 1; CP=0.75SP+2 from Eq 2;

0.85SP-10=0.75SP+2; 0.85SP-0.75SP=10+2=12

0.10SP=12; SP=12/0.10=Rs120 is the Marked Price(answer)

Normally, the Selling Price is the marked price. The seller will not disclose the Cost Price because it is the price when the item was acquired or procured, otherwise the buyer will ask for more discounts and based his buying price from the Cost Price if it is known. The calculated SP and CP satisfy both Eq 1 and Eq 2. Both Eq 1 and Eq 2 satisfy the given conditions of the problem above.
