An integer is close to zero if it is "small".
By small, we mean that it is small in absolute value. In fact, for any given distance 
, there are two integers that are units away from zero: 
and 
.
So, for example, -6 is close to zero than 8, because -6 is six units away from zero, while 8 is eight units away from zero.
So, the answer is B, -8, because it is 8 units away from zero. The other options A, C and D are, respectively, 12, 10 and 14 units away from zero.
You could do the question the way it is written, but it is far easier to bring the negative power up to the numerator.
y= x^2 - 3. The derivative of that is
dy/dx = 2x The three is a constant and is always dropped when a derivative is taken
d(-3)/dx = 0
If you are a purist and want to solve the question the way it is written, you could do it this way.
dy/dx = d(1)/dx x^-2 - d(x^-2)/dx * 1
======================
(x^-2)^2
dy/dx = - (-2 x^ - 3) / x^-4
dy/dx = 2 x^-3 * x^4
dy/dx = 2 x^(-3 + 4)
dy/dx = 2x ^ 1
dy/dx = 2x <<<<< answer
Answer:
Definitely Option A.
When you expand the bracket of Option A... You have your equation
Which is
-1/4x + 1/2.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
starting point: 140 feet below sea level.=-140
she then decends= 7(4.5)=31.5
-140-31.5=-171.5
finally she ascends 112.2 feet
-171.5+112.2=-59.3 feet or 59.3 feet below sea level
Answer:
E(29/4,3)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that,
Segment CD has point E located on it such that CE:ED = 3:5
The coordinates of C and D are (5, -6) and (11,18) respectively.
We need to find the coordinates of E. Let the coordinates are (x,y). Using section formula to find it as follows :
So, the coordinates of E are (29/4,3).
