Answer:

$0.21

Step-by-step explanation:

So, first let's find the cost of a single cup.

16/13.60 = 1/0.85

Now, we know that each cup is approximately $0.85. Next, we must convert cups into quarts. 1 cup = 0.25 quarts.

1/0.85 = 0.25/0.21

natima [27]

Answer:

following are the solution to the given points:

Step-by-step explanation:

In point a:

$\vec{v} = -\vec{1 i} +\vec{1j}\\\\|\vec{v}| = \sqrt{-1^2+1^2}$

$=\sqrt{1+1}\\\\=\sqrt{2}$

calculating unit vector:

$\frac{\vec{v}}{|\vec{v}|} = \frac{-1i+1j}{\sqrt{2}}$

the point Q is at a distance h from P(6,6) Here, h=0.1

$a=-6+O.1 \times \frac{-1}{\sqrt{2}}\\\\= 5.92928 \\\\b= 6+O.1 \times \frac{-1}{\sqrt{2}} \\\\= 6.07071$

the value of Q= (5.92928 ,6.07071 )

In point b:

Calculating the directional derivative of $f (x, y) = \sqrt{x+3y}$ at P in the direction of $\vec{v}$

$f_{PQ} (P) =\fracx{f(Q)-f(P)}{h}\\\\$

$=\frac{f(5.92928 ,6.07071)-f(6,6)}{0.1}\\\\=\frac{\sqrt{(5.92928+ 3 \times 6.07071)}-\sqrt{(6+ 3\times 6)}}{0.1}\\\\= \frac{0.197651557}{0.1}\\\\= 1.97651557$

$\vec{v} = 1.97651557$

In point C:

Computing the directional derivative using the partial derivatives of f.

$f_x(x,y)= \frac{1}{2 \sqrt{x+3y}}\\\\ f_x (6,6)= \frac{1}{2 \sqrt{22}}\\\\f_x(x,y)= \frac{1}{\sqrt{x+3y}}\\\\ f_x (6,6)= \frac{1}{\sqrt{22}}\\\\f_{(PQ)}(P)= (f_x \vec{i} + f_y \vec{j}) \cdot \frac{\vec{v}}{|\vec{v}|}\\\\= (\frac{1}{2 \sqrt{22}}\vec{i} + \frac{1}{\sqrt{22}} \vec{j}) \cdot \frac{-1}{\sqrt{2}}\vec{i} + \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} \vec{j}$

Help math plz! Giving brainlist :D

adoni [48]

No, there is not common ratio...

0.972 (common ratio is 0.3...10.8*.3*.3)

you can use the geometric mean to find this center value easily...

(18*8)^(1/2)=12
