Answer:

900

Step-by-step explanation:

A candidate got 82%votes.

Loosing candidate get=(100-82)=18%

Difference between two votes.

=(82-18)%=64%

Let be the Total vote is=x.

64% of the total vote=576

Or, 64 \%\times x= 576

Or,  \frac{64}{100}  \times x = 576

Or,x= \frac{576 \times 100}{64}

Or,x=900

∴The total votes that were polled are 900.

g The tangent plane to z=f(x,y) at the point (1,2) is z=5x+2y−10. (a) Find fx(1,2) and fy(1,2). fx(1,2)= Number fy(1,2)= Number
murzikaleks [220]

Answer:

The values for Fx(1,2) and Fy(1,2) are 5 and 2 respectively.

Approximation at points (1.1,1.9) is 0.7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Tangent plane to  a surface z=5x+2y-10 as the function at point (1,2)

To find :

f(x,y) at (1,2)

partial derivatives of function w.r.t. (x and y) and value of that function at given points.

Solution:(refer the attachment also)

Now we know that

the equation of tangent plane at given points to the surface is given by,

f(x1,y1,z1) and z=f(x,y)

z-z1=Fx(x1,y1)*(x-x1)+Fy(x1,y1)*(y-y1)

here Fx(x1,y1) and Fy(x1,y1) are the partial derivatives of x and y.

now

taking partial derivative w.r.t. x we get

Fx(x1`,y1)=\frac{d}{dx} (5x+2y-10)

=5.

Then w.r.t y we get

Fy(x1,y1)=

\frac{d}{dy}(5x+2y-10)

=2.

The values for Fx(1,2) and Fy(1,2) are 5 and 2 respectively.

Using the Linearization or linear approximation we get

L(x,y)=f(x1,y1)+Fx(x,y)*(x-x1)+Fy(x,y)(y-y1)

=-1+5(x-1)+2(y-2)

=5x+2y-10

Approximation at F(1.1,1.9)

=5(1.1)+2(1.9)-10

=5.5+3.8-10

=0.7

Approximation at points (1.1,1.9) is 0.7

​ Quadrilateral ABCD ​ is inscribed in this circle.
Ilya [14]
Hello,

When you have an inscribed quadrilateral, the opposite sides are supplementary.

So you can write and solve the following equation.
x + 6x + 19 = 180
7x + 19 = 180
7x = 161
x = 23

Now, plug in 23 for X and we will find the measurement of B.
6(23) + 19
138 + 19
157

The measure of angle B is 157 degrees. (The picture is not drawn to scale)

Good luck,
