Answer:
a)
.
b) 
Step-by-step explanation:
Given a function
, this function has the following gradient:
.
(a) find the gradient of f
We have that
. So


.
.

(b) find the directional derivative of f at (2, 4, 0) in the direction of v = i + 3j − k.
The directional derivate is the scalar product between the gradient at (2,4,0) and the unit vector of v.
We have that:

.

The vector is 
To use v as an unitary vector, we divide each component of v by the norm of v.

So

Now, we can calculate the scalar product that is the directional derivative.

Answer:
9/16
Step-by-step explanation:
First, note that 10000 multiplied by .5625 will get rid of the decimal point. Therefore, make a fraction where the numerator is .5625 times 10000 and denominator is 10000 like this:
.5625 x 10000
10000
Next, multiply the numbers in the numerator together and keep the denominator as is. Now our fraction looks like this:
5625
/10000
The greatest common factor of 5625 and 10000 is 625, which means you can divide the numerator and denominator by 625 and keep the same value:
5625 ÷ 625
/10000 ÷ 625
And when calculating the numerator and denominator in our fraction above, we get .5625 as a fraction in the simplest form possible:
.5625 =
9

Answer:12
Step-by-step explanation:
36:3=12
Answer:
3/4
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope of the line is given by
m= (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
= (6-3)/(0 - -4)
= (6-3)/( 0+4)

Answer:
2 hours 50 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
Mountain Standard Time is 1 hour earlier than Central Standard Time, so the departure time is equivalent to 6:30 pm in CST.
The time between 6:30 pm and 9:20 pm is 2 hours 50 minutes.
