Answer:

b=3

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

Expand

22=5b + 7b - 14

Step 2:

Simplify

22=12b - 14

Step 3:

add 14 to both sides

36= 12b

Step 4:

divide both sides by 12

36/12 = 12b/12

Step 5:

3 = b

The answer is b=3
And to solve it, remove the parentheses, collect the terms, move the terms and calculate then divide both sides.

Find dy/dx and d2y/dx2. x = cos(2t), y = cos(t), 0 < t < π

$\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}=\dfrac{\frac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dt}}{\frac{\mathrm dx}{\mathrm dt}}$

$y=\cos t\implies\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dt}=-\sin t$
$x=\cos2t\implies\dfrac{\mathrm dx}{\mathrm dt}=-2\sin2t=-4\sin t\cos t$
$\implies\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}=\dfrac{-\sin t}{-4\sin t\cos t}=\dfrac14\sec t$

Let $z=\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}$ . Then

$\dfrac{\mathrm d^2y}{\mathrm dx^2}=\dfrac{\mathrm dz}{\mathrm dx}=\dfrac{\mathrm dz}{\mathrm dt}\dfrac{\mathrm dt}{\mathrm dx}=\dfrac{\frac{\mathrm dz}{\mathrm dt}}{\frac{\mathrm dx}{\mathrm dt}}$
$\implies\dfrac{\mathrm d^2y}{\mathrm dx^2}=\dfrac{\frac{\mathrm d}{\mathrm dt}\left[\frac14\sec t\right]}{-4\sin t\cos t}=\dfrac{\frac14\sec t\tan t}{-4\sin t\cos t}=-\dfrac1{16}\sec^3t$
