The straight line 2x + 3y = 7 meets the curve

Mathematics
1 answer:
NISA [10]3 years ago
5 0

Step-by-step explanation:

xy + 10 = 0. => y = -10/x.

2x + 3y = 7. => 3y = -2x + 7, y = -2/3 x + 7/3.

When -10/x = -2/3 x + 7/3,

-10 = -2/3 x² + 7/3 x, 2/3 x² - 7/3 x - 10 = 0.

=> 2x² - 7x - 30 = 0

=> (2x + 5)(x - 6) = 0

=> x = -2.5 or x = 6.

dy/dx = d/dx [-10/x] = 10/x².

When x = -2.5, dy/dx = 10 / (-2.5)² = 1.6.

When x = 6, dy/dx = 10 / (6)² = 5/18.

Hence the gradients at the points are 1.6 and 5/18.

riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

<em>3/8 of the box cereal</em>

Step-by-step explanation: First you must convert 3/4, 1/8, and 1/4 so they have to same denominator. Four can go into eight two times, so you must multiply the numerator by two. So your new fractions are 6/8, 1/8, and 2/8. Now you must subtract 1/8 and 2/8 from 6/8. When you subtract 1/8 from 6/8 you get 5/8. Now subtract 2/8 from 5/8 and you get <em>3/8. </em>That is how you get the answer, I hope this helps you.
