Answer:
-2
Step-by-step explanation:
Dividing the given equation by x, we find y to be ...
y = -2/x
Then ...
dy/dx = 2/x^2
and ...
dy/dt = (2/x^2)dx/dt
dx/dt = (x^2/2)dy/dt
When dy/dt = -4 and x=-1, this is ...
dx/dt = (-1)^2/2(-4) = (1/2)(-4)
dx/dt = -2
Answer: D. 60100
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for determining the sum of n terms of an arithmetic sequence is expressed as
Sn = n/2[2a + (n - 1)d]
Where
n represents the number of terms in the arithmetic sequence.
d represents the common difference of the terms in the arithmetic sequence.
a represents the first term of the arithmetic sequence.
From the information given,
n = 200 terms
a = 2
d = 3
Therefore, the sum of the first 200 terms, S200 would be
S200 = 200/2[2 × 2 + (200 - 1)3]
S200 = 100[4 + 597)
S200 = 100 × 601 = 60100
Let,
f(x) = -2x+34
g(x) = (-x/3) - 10
h(x) = -|3x|
k(x) = (x-2)^2
This is a trial and error type of problem (aka "guess and check"). There are 24 combinations to try out for each problem, so it might take a while. It turns out that
g(h(k(f(15)))) = -6
f(k(g(h(8)))) = 2
So the order for part A should be: f, k, h, g
The order for part B should be: h, g, k f
note how I'm working from the right and moving left (working inside and moving out).
Here's proof of both claims
-----------------------------------------
Proof of Claim 1:
f(x) = -2x+34
f(15) = -2(15)+34
f(15) = 4
-----------------
k(x) = (x-2)^2
k(f(15)) = (f(15)-2)^2
k(f(15)) = (4-2)^2
k(f(15)) = 4
-----------------
h(x) = -|3x|
h(k(f(15))) = -|3*k(f(15))|
h(k(f(15))) = -|3*4|
h(k(f(15))) = -12
-----------------
g(x) = (-x/3) - 10
g(h(k(f(15))) ) = (-h(k(f(15))) /3) - 10
g(h(k(f(15))) ) = (-(-12) /3) - 10
g(h(k(f(15))) ) = -6
-----------------------------------------
Proof of Claim 2:
h(x) = -|3x|
h(8) = -|3*8|
h(8) = -24
---------------
g(x) = (-x/3) - 10
g(h(8)) = (-h(8)/3) - 10
g(h(8)) = (-(-24)/3) - 10
g(h(8)) = -2
---------------
k(x) = (x-2)^2
k(g(h(8))) = (g(h(8))-2)^2
k(g(h(8))) = (-2-2)^2
k(g(h(8))) = 16
---------------
f(x) = -2x+34
f(k(g(h(8))) ) = -2*(k(g(h(8))) )+34
f(k(g(h(8))) ) = -2*(16)+34
f(k(g(h(8))) ) = 2
