Mathematics
1 answer:
givi [52]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

dy/dx = -1/x^{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 1/x

dy/dx = d/dx(1/x)

=> dy/dx = d/dx(x^{-1})

=> dy/dx = -x^{-2}

=> dy/dx = -1/x^{2}

Find the global maximum and global minimum values (if they exist) of x 2 + y 2 in the region x + y = 1. If there is no global ma
Grace [21]

Given that x+y=1, we have y=1-x, so that

f(x,y)=x^2+y^2\iff g(x)=x^2+(1-x)^2

Take the derivative and find the critical points of g:

g'(x)=2x-2(1-x)=4x-2=0\implies x=\dfrac12

Take the second derivative and evaluate it at the critical point:

g''(x)=4>0

Since g'' is positive for all x, the critical point is a minimum.

At the critical point, we get the minimum value g\left(\frac12\right)=f\left(\frac12,\frac12\right)=\frac12.

Given a graph, with no equation, how can you graph the inverse?
patriot [66]

There are two different ways you can do this, I have provided both below.

Answer: You can switch all the x and y coordinate values.

   For example, if you have (2, 1) you would graph (1, 2).

       Another example, if you have (677, 83) you would graph (83, 677)

Answer: Flip the graph over the line of y = x

   I have attached an example from<em> lumenlearning.com</em>.
