The ceiling of Katie’s living room is a square that is 15 ft long on each side. To decorate for a party, she plans to hang crepe

paper around the perimeter of the ceiling and then from each corner to the opposite corner. Katie can buy rolls that each contain 20 ft of crepe paper. What is the minimum number of rolls she should buy? Show your work.

I think that 3 rolls is wrong and that 6 rolls is right. If you create a 15 by 15 square and draw two lines through the center that connect to the opposite corner, you'll be able to use the Pythagorean Theorem.


Perimeter: 15+15+15+15=60ft.


Length of Line from Corner to Corner:

(15)(15)+(15)(15)=C^2

225+225=C^2

450=C^2

21.2=C

21.2(2)= 42.4ft.

42.4ft.+60ft.= 102.4ft.

102.4ft. divided by 20ft. = 5.12 = <u>6 rolls</u>

Find the derivative.

Answer:

\displaystyle f'(x) = \bigg( \frac{1}{2\sqrt{x}} - \sqrt{x} \bigg)e^\big{-x}

General Formulas and Concepts:

<u>Algebra I</u>

Terms/Coefficients

  • Expanding/Factoring

<u>Calculus</u>

Differentiation

  • Derivatives
  • Derivative Notation

Basic Power Rule:

  1. f(x) = cxⁿ
  2. f’(x) = c·nxⁿ⁻¹

Derivative Rule [Quotient Rule]:                                                                           \displaystyle \frac{d}{dx} [\frac{f(x)}{g(x)} ]=\frac{g(x)f'(x)-g'(x)f(x)}{g^2(x)}

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

<em>Identify</em>

\displaystyle f(x) = \frac{\sqrt{x}}{e^x}

<u>Step 2: Differentiate</u>

  1. Derivative Rule [Quotient Rule]:                                                                   \displaystyle f'(x) = \frac{(\sqrt{x})'e^x - \sqrt{x}(e^x)'}{(e^x)^2}
  2. Basic Power Rule:                                                                                         \displaystyle f'(x) = \frac{\frac{e^x}{2\sqrt{x}} - \sqrt{x}(e^x)'}{(e^x)^2}
  3. Exponential Differentiation:                                                                         \displaystyle f'(x) = \frac{\frac{e^x}{2\sqrt{x}} - \sqrt{x}e^x}{(e^x)^2}
  4. Simplify:                                                                                                         \displaystyle f'(x) = \frac{\frac{e^x}{2\sqrt{x}} - \sqrt{x}e^x}{e^{2x}}
  5. Rewrite:                                                                                                         \displaystyle f'(x) = \bigg( \frac{e^x}{2\sqrt{x}} - \sqrt{x}e^x \bigg) e^{-2x}
  6. Factor:                                                                                                           \displaystyle f'(x) = \bigg( \frac{1}{2\sqrt{x}} - \sqrt{x} \bigg)e^\big{-x}

Complete the point-slope equation of the line through (2,3) and (7,4) <br> y-4=
Anna71 [15]

Answer:

y - 4 = \frac{1}{5}(x - 7)

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in point- slope form is

y - b = m(x - a)

where m is the slope and (a, b) a point on the line

Calculate m using the slope formula

m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (2, 3) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (7, 4)

m = \frac{4-3}{7-2} = \frac{1}{5}

Use either of the 2 points for (a, b)

Using (7, 4), then

y - 4 = \frac{1}{5}(x - 7) ← in point- slope form

Find the value of X. The diagram is not to scale. Lines F and G are parallel.
sergejj [24]

Step-by-step explanation:

2 × (First Angle + Second Angle) = 360°

5x + 9x + 26 = 360°/2

14x + 26 = 180°

14x = 180 - 26

14x = 154

x = 154/14

x = 11°

The answer is B.
