9/10 : 1/10 = 45,000,000 : x
x = 45000000/9 = 5,000,000
Answer: 5 million acres
Answer:
Area = PI * radius ^ 2
Area = PI * 60^2
Area = PI * 3,600
Area = 11,309.73 square miles
Step-by-step explanation:
By "y = −9x2 − 2x" I assume you meant <span>y = −9x^2 − 2x (the "^" symbol represents exponentiation).
Let's find the first derivative of y with respect to x: dy/dx = -18x - 2. This is equivalent to the slope of the tangent line to the (parabolic) curve. Now let this derivative (slope) = 0 and solve for the critical value: -18x - 2 = 0, or
-18x = 2. Solving for x, x = -2/18, or x = -1/9.
When x = -1/9, y = -9(-1/9)^2 - 2(-1/9). This simplifies to y = -9/9 + 2/9, or
y = -7/9.
The only point at which the tangent to the curve is horiz. is (-1/9,-7/9).</span>
The answer choice is a. y=(-1/2)x
