3 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(x₁ , y₁) = (3,-1) &(x₂,y₂) = (-8, 0)

$Slope = \frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}\\\\=\frac{0-[-1]}{-8-3}\\\\=\frac{0+1}{-11}\\\\=\frac{1}{-11}\\\\=\frac{-1}{11}$

Solve the inequality. 4m – 3(m + 1) – 4 < 0 A) m < 7 B) m > 7 C) m < -1 D) m < -7

agasfer [191]

Answer:

A) m < 7

Step-by-step explanation:

4m – 3(m + 1) – 4 < 0

Distribute the 3

4m -3m -3-4<0

m-7 <0

Add 7 to each side

m-7+7 <0+7

m<7

For the given functions, (a) express dw/dt as a function of t, both by using the chain rule and by expressing w in terms of t an

ch4aika [34]

By the chain rule,

$\dfrac{\mathrm dw}{\mathrm dt}=\dfrac{\partial w}{\partial x}\dfrac{\mathrm dx}{\mathrm dt}+\dfrac{\partial w}{\partial y}\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dt}+\dfrac{\partial w}{\partial z}\dfrac{\mathrm dz}{\mathrm dt}$

We have

$w=7ye^x-\ln z\implies\begin{cases}\dfrac{\partial w}{\partial x}=7ye^x\\\\\dfrac{\partial w}{\partial y}=7e^x\\\\\dfrac{\partial w}{\partial z}=-\dfrac1z\end{cases}$

and

$\begin{cases}x=\ln(t^2+1)\\y=\tan^{-1}t\\z=e^t\end{cases}\implies\begin{cases}\dfrac{\mathrm dx}{\mathrm dt}=\dfrac{2t}{t^2+1}\\\\\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dt}=\dfrac1{t^2+1}\\\\\dfrac{\mathrm dz}{\mathrm dt}=e^t\end{cases}$
