Can someone explain to me why you flip the reciprial

Mathematics
1 answer:
puteri [66]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

By flipping the second fraction (finding its reciprocal) we change the equation mathematically. In order to maintain the equation mathematically, we must turn the division question into a multiplication question.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The sum of x and -45 is at most 35
Lorico [155]

Answer:

The given set of equation are:   x+ (-45) ≤  35  ,  x - (-45) ≥  35

For the given equality to be true, x  ≤ 35

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, given the first number = x

Second number  = -45

Now, Sum of x  and - 45 is at most 35.

⇒ x+ (-45) ≤  35

Also,  The difference of x and -45 is at least 35.

⇒ x - (-45) ≥  35

Now, simplifying the given set of equations:

x  - 45  ≤  35  ⇒    -x - (-45) >   - 35   ( as 3  <  4  ⇒ -3  > -4)

or, -x  + 45  >  - 35

and second equation is x  + 45 ≥  35

Now, solving both the equations by not taking sign of inequality in to the consideration, we get

x - 45  = 35

x + 45 = 35  

Adding both equations,we get:   ⇒ 2x = 70

                                                          or x = 35

Hence for the given equality to be true, x  ≤ 35

Alice has 2 dogs, ollie and taffy, ollie eats 2/3 of a tin of dog food every day and taffy eats 2/5 of a tin everyday, Alice buy
Zarrin [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

2/3 + 2/5 = 10/15 + 6/15 = 16/15 tins per day

24 tins divided by 16/15 = 24/1 divided by 16/15

To divide one fraction by another, take reciprocal of the other and then multiply.

24/1 x 15/16 = 360/16 = 22 1/2 days

Use logarithmic differentiation to find the derivative of the function. y = x2cos x Part 1 of 4 Using properties of logarithms,
Arisa [49]

ANSWER

{y}^{'}  = 2x \cos(x)  -   {x}^{2} \sin(x)

EXPLANATION

The given function is

y =  {x}^{2}  \cos(x)

We take natural log of both sides;

ln(y) =   ln({x}^{2}  \cos(x) )

Recall and use the product rule of logarithms.

ln(AB)  =  ln(A )  +  ln(B)

This implies that:

ln(y) =   ln({x}^{2}  ) +  ln( \cos(x) )

ln(y) =  2 ln({x} ) +  ln( \cos(x) )

We now differentiate implicitly to obtain;

\frac{ {y}^{'} }{y}  =  \frac{2}{x}   -  \frac{ \sin(x) }{ \cos(x) }

Multiply through by y,

{y}^{'} = y( \frac{2}{x}   - \frac{ \sin(x) }{ \cos(x) ) })

Substitute y=x²cosx to obtain;

{y}^{'} =  {x}^{2}  \cos(x) ( \frac{2}{x}   - \frac{ \sin(x) }{ \cos(x) ) } )

Expand:

{y}^{'}  = 2x \cos(x)  -   {x}^{2} \sin(x)
