Answer:

40 and 65

Step-by-step explanation:

Craig is 40.

Diane is 65.

40+25=65.

Diane is 25 years older than Craig.

40+20=105

Answer:

Let Craigs age = x

Therefore Dianes age = 25 + x ( since she's 25 years older)

Dianes + Craigs age = (25 + x) + x = 105 (They said both of their ages sums up to 105)

25 + 2x = 105

2x = 80

x = 40

Craigs age is 40 years old.

Dianes age is 65 years old.

You cannot find x.

Because both phrases are to the power of 0, we know that it is essentially 1*1

So:

(3x - 8)^0 (4x - 23)^0 = 1

Consider the following equation. f(x, y) = y3/x, P(1, 2), u = 1 3 2i + 5 j (a) Find the gradient of f. ∇f(x, y) = Correct: Your

BaLLatris [955]

$f(x,y)=\dfrac{y^3}x$

a. The gradient is

$\nabla f(x,y)=\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial x}\,\vec\imath+\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial y}\,\vec\jmath$

$\boxed{\nabla f(x,y)=-\dfrac{y^3}{x^2}\,\vec\imath+\dfrac{3y^2}x\,\vec\jmath}$

b. The gradient at point P(1, 2) is

$\boxed{\nabla f(1,2)=-8\,\vec\imath+12\,\vec\jmath}$

c. The derivative of $f$ at P in the direction of $\vec u$ is

$D_{\vec u}f(1,2)=\nabla f(1,2)\cdot\dfrac{\vec u}{\|\vec u\|}$

It looks like

$\vec u=\dfrac{13}2\,\vec\imath+5\,\vec\jmath$

so that

$\|\vec u\|=\sqrt{\left(\dfrac{13}2\right)^2+5^2}=\dfrac{\sqrt{269}}2$

Then

$D_{\vec u}f(1,2)=\dfrac{\left(-8\,\vec\imath+12\,\vec\jmath\right)\cdot\left(\frac{13}2\,\vec\imath+5\,\vec\jmath\right)}{\frac{\sqrt{269}}2}$

$\boxed{D_{\vec u}f(1,2)=\dfrac{16}{\sqrt{269}}}$
