Answer:

Step 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$(5 - 2)^ 2 + 23 * 4$

Required:

Determine the first step where she made mistake

Her Step 1:

$(3)^ 2 + 23 * 4$ --- This is correct because she solved the bracket first

Her Step 2:

$9 + 23 * 4$ --- This is correct because she solved 3^2 as 9

Her Step 3:

$9 + 9 * 4$ --- This is incorrect because 23 * 4 is not equivalent to 9 * 4

Hence, her first mistake is in step 3.

The correct expression would have been

$9 + 92$

Then

$= 101$

Prove that root 7 is irrational by the method of contradiction

Alchen [17]

Let assume that $\sqrt7$ is a rational number. Therefore it can be expressed as a fraction $\dfrac{a}{b}$ where $a,b\in\mathbb{Z}$ and $\text{gcd}(a,b)=1$ .

$\sqrt7=\dfrac{a}{b}\\\\7=\dfrac{a^2}{b^2}\\\\a^2=7b^2$

This means that $a^2$ is divisible by 7, and therefore also $a$ is divisible by 7.

So, $a=7k$ where $k\in\mathbb{Z}$

$(7k)^2=7b^2\\\\49k^2=7b^2\\\\7k^2=b^2$

Analogically to $a^2=7b^2$ ------- $b^2$ is divisible by 7 and therefore so is $b$ .

But if both numbers $a$ and $b$ are divisible by 7, then $\text{gcd}(a,b)=7$ which contradicts our earlier assumption that $\text{gcd}(a,b)=1$ .

Therefore $\sqrt7$ is an irrational number.

Find the second derivative of 2x^3-3y^2=8

Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

$\frac{d^2y}{dx^2}=\frac{x(2y-x^3)}{y^3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Find the first implicit derivative using implicit differentiation</u>

<u /> $2x^3-3y^2=8\\\\6x^2-6y\frac{dy}{dx}=0\\ \\-6y\frac{dy}{dx}=-6x^2\\ \\\frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{x^2}{y}$

<u>Use the substitution of dy/dx to find the second derivative (d²y/dx²)</u>

<u /> $\frac{d^2y}{dx^2}=\frac{(y)(2x)-(x^2)(\frac{dy}{dx})}{y^2}\\ \\\frac{d^2y}{dx^2}=\frac{2xy-(x^2)(\frac{x^2}{y})}{y^2}\\\\\frac{d^2y}{dx^2}=\frac{2xy-\frac{x^4}{y}}{y^2}\\\\\frac{d^2y}{dx^2}=\frac{x(2y-x^3)}{y^3}$
