Answer:

Sheldon have left $2\frac{7}{12}\ kg$ of food.

Step-by-step explanation:

Quantity of food = $4\frac{1}{2}=\frac{9}{2}$ kg

Quantity used on strawberry plant = $1\frac{2}{3} = \frac{5}{3}\ kg$

Quantity used on tomato plant = $\frac{1}{4}\ kg$

Food left = Total - used on strawberry - used on tomato

Food left = $\frac{9}{2}-\frac{5}{3}-\frac{1}{4}$

Food left = $\frac{54-20-3}{12} = \frac{31}{12}$

Food left = $2\frac{7}{12}\ kg$

Therefore,

Sheldon have left $2\frac{7}{12}\ kg$ of food.

What's the slope of the graph

kotykmax [81]

Answer:

1/-2

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope:

rise/run

From point to point

So....

From (-1,0)

you go up 2(2)

then left 4(-4)

to get to (-5,2)

so 2/-4 reduced is 1/-2

Apply the method of undetermined coefficients to find a particular solution to the following system.wing system.

jarptica [38.1K]

$y''-y'+y=\sin x$

The corresponding homogeneous ODE has characteristic equation $r^2-r+1=0$ with roots at $r=\dfrac{1\pm\sqrt3}2$ , thus admitting the characteristic solution

$y_c=C_1e^x\cos\dfrac{\sqrt3}2x+C_2e^x\sin\dfrac{\sqrt3}2x$

For the particular solution, assume one of the form

$y_p=a\sin x+b\cos x$

${y_p}'=a\cos x-b\sin x$

${y_p}''=-a\sin x-b\cos x$

Substituting into the ODE gives

$(-a\sin x-b\cos x)-(a\cos x-b\sin x)+(a\sin x+b\cos x)=\sin x$

$-b\cos x+a\sin x=\sin x$

$\implies a=1,b=0$

Then the general solution to this ODE is

$\boxed{y(x)=C_1e^x\cos\dfrac{\sqrt3}2x+C_2e^x\sin\dfrac{\sqrt3}2x+\sin x}$

$y''-3y'+2y=e^x\sin x$

$\implies r^2-3r+2=(r-1)(r-2)=0\implies r=1,r=2$

$\implies y_c=C_1e^x+C_2e^{2x}$

Assume a solution of the form

$y_p=e^x(a\sin x+b\cos x)$

${y_p}'=e^x((a+b)\cos x+(a-b)\sin x)$

${y_p}''=2e^x(a\cos x-b\sin x)$

Substituting into the ODE gives

$2e^x(a\cos x-b\sin x)-3e^x((a+b)\cos x+(a-b)\sin x)+2e^x(a\sin x+b\cos x)=e^x\sin x$

$-e^x((a+b)\cos x+(a-b)\sin x)=e^x\sin x$

$\implies\begin{cases}-a-b=0\\-a+b=1\end{cases}\implies a=-\dfrac12,b=\dfrac12$

so the solution is

$\boxed{y(x)=C_1e^x+C_2e^{2x}-\dfrac{e^x}2(\sin x-\cos x)}$

$y''+y=x\cos(2x)$

$r^2+1=0\implies r=\pm i$

$\implies y_c=C_1\cos x+C_2\sin x$

Assume a solution of the form

$y_p=(ax+b)\cos(2x)+(cx+d)\sin(2x)$

${y_p}''=-4(ax+b-c)\cos(2x)-4(cx+a+d)\sin(2x)$

Substituting into the ODE gives

$(-4(ax+b-c)\cos(2x)-4(cx+a+d)\sin(2x))+((ax+b)\cos(2x)+(cx+d)\sin(2x))=x\cos(2x)$

$-(3ax+3b-4c)\cos(2x)-(3cx+3d+4a)\sin(2x)=x\cos(2x)$

$\implies\begin{cases}-3a=1\\-3b+4c=0\\-3c=0\\-4a-3d=0\end{cases}\implies a=-\dfrac13,b=c=0,d=\dfrac49$

so the solution is

$\boxed{y(x)=C_1\cos x+C_2\sin x-\dfrac13x\cos(2x)+\dfrac49\sin(2x)}$

Need help pls answer asap. Sorry the photo quality is bad.

castortr0y [4]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1 + 3 = 4

so find the point 1/4 of the way from (-1, 2) to (7, 8)

x coordinate

Δx = ¼(7 - (-1)) = 2

x = x₀ + Δx

x = -1 + 2 = 1

y coordinate

Δy = ¼(8 - 2) = 1½

y = y₀ + Δy

y = 2 + 1½ = 3½

(1, 3½)
