Answer:

15

Step-by-step explanation:

determine the numerical length of AC

We know that Ac is equaled to ab and bc because they are the segements between ac  

                3x                                4x+8

A-----------------------------B----------------------------------C

|<----------------------------5x+10 --------------------------->|

AB + BC = AC

solving for x

3x + 4X + 8 = 5X + 10

3x+4x-5x= 10-8

2x=2

x=1

Now sub that in for ac

AC= 5x +10

AC= 5(1) +10

AC= 5 +10

AC = 15

Y is a differentiable function of x. Choose the alternative that is the derivative dy / dx.
murzikaleks [220]

Differentiating both sides of

x^3-y^3=1

with respect to <em>x</em> yields (using the chain rule)

3x^2 - 3y^2 \dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx} = 0

Solve for d<em>y</em>/d<em>x</em> :

3x^2 - 3y^2 \dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx} = 0 \\\\ 3y^2\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx} = 3x^2 \\\\ \dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx} = \dfrac{3x^2}{3y^2} = \dfrac{x^2}{y^2}

The answer is then D.

liq [111]

Answer:

y=-2(x+2)

Step-by-step explanation:

plug in(-2,0) into y-y1=m(x-x1)

y=m(x+2)

slope =m=-2

y=-2(x+2)

Suppose y varies inversely with x. Write an equation if y=-3 when x=17
vodka [1.7K]

Answer:

y = -51 ÷ x

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard format of a inversely proportional equation goes by the format of y = k ÷ x. The question asks us to write an equation if y = -3 when x = 17 and y varies inversely with x.

So we substitute the values y = -3 and x = 17 in the equation y = k ÷ x

K = constant, we have to work this out

-3 = k ÷ 17

-3 × 17 = k

k = -3 × 17

k = -51

k = -51 So then we put this back into the original y = k ÷ x to find our final equation which is y = -51 ÷ x
