Answer:

fraction

Step-by-step explanation:

If you have a negative exponent, such as $x^{-2}$ , that can also be written as $\frac{x^{-2} }{1}$

by moving the exponent (and it's base) to the denominator (the other side of the fraction, since it's in the numerator), you make the exponent positive: $\frac{1}{x^{2} }$

*please help* The points (0, -4) and (3,2) lie on the graph of a linear function. What is the rate of change of the function?

Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Rate of change = slope

slope = )y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
(0,-4)....x1 = 0 and y1 = -4 (pay attention to the negative sign when subbing)
(3,2)....x2 = 3 and y2 = 2
now we sub
slope(rate of change) = (2 - (-4) / (3 - 0) = (2 + 4) / 3 = 6/3 = 2 <==

A circular oil slick is expanding at a rate of 3m/min. How fast is the area of the oil slick changing when the diameter is 48 me

olga55 [171]

Answer:

$48\pi \:m/min$

Step-by-step explanation:

Diameter = 48 m

Therefore radius r = 48/2 = 24 m

$Area \: of \: circular \: oil \: slick \\ A = \pi {r}^{2} \\ differentiating \: w \: r \: to \: t \: on \: \\ both \: sides \\ \\ \frac{dA}{dt} = \frac{d}{dt} (\pi {r}^{2} )\\ \\ \frac{dA}{dt} =\pi \frac{d}{dt} {r}^{2} \\ \\ \frac{dA}{dt} =\pi \times 2{r}\\ \\ \frac{dA}{dt} =2\pi {r} \\ \\ \bigg(\frac{dA}{dt} \bigg)_{r=24} =2\pi \times {24} \\ \\ \bigg(\frac{dA}{dt} \bigg)_{r=24} =48\pi \: m \: per \: min$
