Differentiating a Logarithmic Function in Exercise, find the derivative of the function. See Examples 1, 2, 3, and 4.

Answer:

$\frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{x(1-2lnx)}{x^{4}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the question we refresh our knowledge of the quotient rule.

For a function f(x) express as a ratio of another functions u(x) and v(x) i.e

$f(x)=\frac{u(x)}{v(x)}\\$ , the derivative is express as

$\frac{df(x)}{dx}=\frac{v(x)\frac{du(x)}{dx}-u(x)\frac{dv(x)}{dx}}{v(x)^{2} }$

from $y=lnx/x^{2}$

we assign u(x)=lnx and v(x)=x^2

and the derivatives

$\frac{du(x)}{dx}=\frac{1}{x}\\\frac{dv(x)}{dx}=2x\\$ .

Note the expression used in determining the derivative of the logarithm function.it was obtain from the general expression of logarithm derivative i.e $y=lnx\\\frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{1}{x}$

If we substitute values into the quotient expression we arrive at

$\frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{(x^{2}*\frac{1}{x})-(2x*lnx)}{x^{4}}\\\frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{x-2xlnx}{x^{4}}\\\frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{x(1-2lnx)}{x^{4}}$

Aaron is making a jewelry box of wood in the shape of a rectangular prism the jewelry box will have the dimensions shown in the

Natali [406]

Answer:

b. $342

Step-by-step explanation:

Base = Length * width

Base Area = 12 * 5

B = 180 square inches.

Perimeter of the prism will be :

P = 2 (length) + 2 (15)

P = 2 * 12 + 30

P = 54 inches

Height of the jewelry container will be :

X = Ph + 2B

X = 54 * 6 + 2 * 180

X = 684 square inches.

Total cost for paint of jewelry box is :

X * cost per inch

Total cost = 682 * $0.50

Total Cost = $342.

Papessa [141]

Answer: 95% confidence interval for the difference between the proportions would be (1.31, 1.39).

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of alluvial wells = 349

Number of quaternary wells = 143

Number of alluvial wells that had concentrations above 0.1 = 182

Number of quaternary wells that had concentrations above 0.1 = 112

Average of alluvial wells = 0.27

Standard deviation = 0.4

Average of quaternary wells = 1.62

Standard deviation =1.70

So, 95% confidence interval gives

alpha = 5% level of significance.

$\dfrac{\alpha}{2}=2.5\%\\\\z_{\frac{\alpha}{2}}=1.96$

So, 95% confidence interval becomes,

$(1.62-0.27)\pm 1.96\sqrt{\dfrac{0.4^2}{349}+\dfrac{1.7^2}{143}}\\\\=1.35\pm 1.96\times 0.020\\\\=(1.35-0.040,1.35+0.040)\\\\=(1.31,1.39)$

Hence, 95% confidence interval for the difference between the proportions would be (1.31, 1.39).

hjlf

Answer:

f(x) is the total cost and x is the number of peaches.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that each peach costs $0.75. This means the expression 0.75x represents the total cost of peaches; this makes x represent the number of peaches.

We also know that $2.25 is the cost of juice. Adding it to the cost of peaches gives us the total cost; this means f(x) represents the total cost.
