Lisa reads an equal number of pages of a book every week. The graph below shows the number of pages of the book left to read, y,

after x weeks:
A graph titled Lisas Book Reading shows Number of Weeks on the x-axis and Number of Pages Left on the y-axis. The scale on the x-axis shows numbers from 0 to 6 at increments of 1, and the scale on the y-axis shows numbers from 0 to 350 at increments of 50. A straight line joins the ordered pairs 0, 250 and 1, 200 and 2, 150 and 3, 100 and 4, 50 and 5, 0.

Which equation best models the relationship between x and y?

y = −50x + 250
y = −5x + 50
y = −50x + 350
y = −5x + 250

Answer:

  (a)  y = −50x + 250

Step-by-step explanation:

In case you don't realize that the graph starts at 250 and decreases by 50 for each increase of 1 in x, you can see if any of the equations match the given points. The only one that does is the first one:

  y = -50x +250

The derivative of y with respect to x, when y = 3e^5x - 2 is:
Ede4ka [16]
Answer: 15e^5x

Step - by - step

y=3e^5x - 2

By the sum rule, the derivative of 3e^5x - 2 with respect to x is d/dx [ 3e^5x ] + d/dx [-2].

d/dx [ 3e^5x ] + d/dx [ -2 ]

Evalute d/dx [ 3e^5x ]

Since 3 is constant with respect to x , the derivative of 3e^5x with respect to x is
3 d/dx [ e^5x ].

3 d/dx [ e^5x ] + d/dx [ -2 ]

Differentiate using the chain rule, which states that d/dx [ f(g(x))] is f' (g(x)) g' (x) where f(x) = e^x and g(x) = 5x.

To apply the Chain Rule, set u as 5x.
3 ( d/du [ e^u] d/dx [5x] ) + d/dx [ -2]

Differentiate using the Exponential rule which states that d/du [ a^u ] is a^u ln(a) where a=e.

3( e^u d/dx[5x] ) + d/dx [ -2 ]
Replace
3(e^5x d/dx [5x] ) + d/dx [ -2 ]
3(e^5x( 5 d/dx [x] )) + d/dx [ -2 ]

Diffentiate using the Power Rule which states that d/dx [x^n] is nx^n-1 where n=1.
3(e^5x(5*1)) + d/dx [-2]
3 ( e^5x * 5 ) + d/dx [-2]

Multiply 5 by 3
15e^5x + d/dx [-2]

Since -2 is constant with respect to x, the derivative of -2 with respect to x is 0.
15e^5x + 0
15e^5x

?simplified the expression
larisa [96]
The first two negatives cancel out and you're left with positive 4. Now go inside the square root and do the exponent. -4*-4 = 16. Then do the -4*3*1 = -12. Do 16-12 = 4. now the square root of 4 = 2. at the dominator is 2*3 = 6. right now they problem should look like 4+- 2/ 6. from there you split the problem in two. so you have 4+2/6   &     4-2/6     then you solve both problems.
           6/6               2/6
             1                  1/3
1 & 1/3 are your answers. I hope this helped!
