Simply put 12 batteries for 14.76 because 4.80x4=19.2 so if you buy more 3 packs it’s gonna cost you more

Answer: Option B is the cheaper deal (the 12 batteries for $14.76)

===========================================================

Explanation:

For the first deal we can say

3 batteries = 4.80 dollars

3/3 batteries = 4.80/3 dollars .... divide both sides by 3

1 battery = 1.60 dollars

The unit price for the first deal is $1.60 per battery.

----------------------------------

For the second deal we could say

12 batteries = 14.76 dollars

12/12 batteries = 14.76/12 dollars .... divide both sides by 12

1 battery = 1.23 dollars

The unit price for the first deal is $1.23 per battery.

This is the cheaper deal.

----------------------------------

So in short, you're dividing the total cost over the number of items to get the unit price.

Find derivative problem<br> Find B’(6)

dalvyx [7]

Answer:

$B^\prime(6) \approx -28.17$

Step-by-step explanation:

We have:

$\displaystyle B(t)=24.6\sin(\frac{\pi t}{10})(8-t)$

And we want to find B’(6).

So, we will need to find B(t) first. To do so, we will take the derivative of both sides with respect to x. Hence:

$\displaystyle B^\prime(t)=\frac{d}{dt}[24.6\sin(\frac{\pi t}{10})(8-t)]$

We can move the constant outside:

$\displaystyle B^\prime(t)=24.6\frac{d}{dt}[\sin(\frac{\pi t}{10})(8-t)]$

Now, we will utilize the product rule. The product rule is:

$(uv)^\prime=u^\prime v+u v^\prime$

We will let:

$\displaystyle u=\sin(\frac{\pi t}{10})\text{ and } \\ \\ v=8-t$

Then:

$\displaystyle u^\prime=\frac{\pi}{10}\cos(\frac{\pi t}{10})\text{ and } \\ \\ v^\prime= -1$

(The derivative of u was determined using the chain rule.)

Then it follows that:

$\displaystyle \begin{aligned} B^\prime(t)&=24.6\frac{d}{dt}[\sin(\frac{\pi t}{10})(8-t)] \\ \\ &=24.6[(\frac{\pi}{10}\cos(\frac{\pi t}{10}))(8-t) - \sin(\frac{\pi t}{10})] \end{aligned}$

Therefore:

$\displaystyle B^\prime(6) =24.6[(\frac{\pi}{10}\cos(\frac{\pi (6)}{10}))(8-(6))- \sin(\frac{\pi (6)}{10})]$

By simplification:

$\displaystyle B^\prime(6)=24.6 [\frac{\pi}{10}\cos(\frac{3\pi}{5})(2)-\sin(\frac{3\pi}{5})] \approx -28.17$

So, the slope of the tangent line to the point (6, B(6)) is -28.17.

The area of the rectangle below is<br> sq. units.<br> Help me pls :(

Lisa [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hey There!

To find the area of a rectangle we do length times width

17 is the width and 4 is the length

so area is equal to 17x4

17x4=68 so your answer would be D
