From the explanation below,
a= -10 and b= -4
The least common denominator is 5y, and can be obtained by multiplying
-1/y by 5/5 to get -5/5y.
If we add the numbers using the least common denominator, we get:
-5/5y + 2/5y = -3/5y
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Simply plug in 10 for <em>n</em>
9(1/3)¹⁰⁻¹
9(1/3)⁹
9(1/19683)
9/19683

The doctor would have 72 patients each week. Meaning 3744 each year.
Answer:
I'm going to lay this out in a chart so it's a little easier to see:
F(x) = f(g(x))
x | f (x) | f ' (x) | g (x) | g ' (x)
--------------------------------------
-2 | 8 | 4 |
5 | | 3 | -2 | 6
Remember the chain rule, which says
(f (g (x))) ' = g ' (x) f ' (g (x))
When they ask for F ' (5), they are asking for (f (g (x))) ' when x = 5.
Using the chain rule, that's
F ' (5) = g ' (5) f ' (g (5))
We can simplify using the numbers provided.
F ' (5) = (6) f ' (-2)
F ' (5) = (6) (4)
F ' (5) = 24
I hope that helps!
