the 90 members of a service Club had the opportunity to vote for a club officers on Tuesday or Wednesday 3/5 of the members vote

oee [108]

For this problem, it is really important to find who voted on Tuesday first.
90×(3/5)= 54
54 people voted on Tuesday. Since the people who voted on Wednesday was 1/4 of the members who did not vote on Tuesday.
90-54=36×(1/4)=9
9 people voted on Wednesday. Now add Tuesday and Wednesday together to find the ones that didn't vote.
54+9=63;90-63=27
27 people did not vote at all.

The point P(1,1/2) lies on the curve y=x/(1+x). (a) If Q is the point (x,x/(1+x)), find the slope of the secant line PQ correct

lukranit [14]

Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

You are given the equation of the curve

$y=\dfrac{x}{1+x}$

Point $P\left(1,\dfrac{1}{2}\right)$ lies on the curve.

Point $Q\left(x,\dfrac{x}{1+x}\right)$ is an arbitrary point on the curve.

The slope of the secant line PQ is

$\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}=\dfrac{\frac{x}{1+x}-\frac{1}{2}}{x-1}=\dfrac{\frac{2x-(1+x)}{2(x+1)}}{x-1}=\dfrac{\frac{2x-1-x}{2(x+1)}}{x-1}=\\ \\=\dfrac{\frac{x-1}{2(x+1)}}{x-1}=\dfrac{x-1}{2(x+1)}\cdot \dfrac{1}{x-1}=\dfrac{1}{2(x+1)}\ [\text{When}\ x\neq 1]$
