This one is easy.
<span>–8.6 = –4.1 + x
</span>
So, what you have to do is add 4.1 on both sides.
You do this because you want to get X alone. when you do,
-8.6+4.1=-4.5
X=-4.5
The answer is B
Instead of using the quotient rule, you can first expand <em>y</em> :
<em>y</em> = (4<em>x</em> - 1)^2 / <em>x</em> ^2 = (16<em>x</em> ^2 - 8<em>x</em> + 1) / <em>x</em> ^2 = 16 - 8/<em>x</em> + 1/<em>x</em> ^2
Then the derivative is
d<em>y</em>/d<em>x</em> = -8/<em>x</em> ^2 - 2/<em>x</em> ^3
The tangent to the curve at (-1, 25) then has a slope or gradient of
d<em>y</em>/d<em>x</em> = -8/(-1)^2 - 2/(-1)^3 = -6
Answer:
Even if the numbers can be used more than once, this is still no solutions sice all answers will get you to 22 instead of 24.
This will be rolling a 1,2,3,4 or 5 which is 5/6
probability = 5/6
