Find the gradient of the curve y=-x^-3-5x^2+7x at x=2​

Mathematics
1 answer:
Harman [31]2 years ago
5 0

-8

Step-by-step explanation:

The gradient or slope of a curve y is simply the derivative of the curve at a point x. So we can proceed as follows

\dfrac{dy}{dx} = \dfrac{d}{dx}(x^3 -5x^2 +7) = 3x^2 -10x

Evaluated at x = 2, the gradient of the slope is

\left.\dfrac{dy}{dx}\right|_{x=2} = 3(2)^2 - 10(2) = -8

Sarah bought a lawnmower for $320. She signed up for the buy now pay later plan at the store with the following conditions: $100
marishachu [46]
Cost of the lawnmower bought by Sarah = $320
Amount of down payment made by Sarah = $100
Amount paid by Sarah in 12 months = (12 * 25) dollars
                                                          = 300 dollars
Total amount paid by Sarah = (300 + 100) dollars
                                             = 400 dollars
Excess amount paid as interest by Sarah = (400 - 320) dollars
                                                                   = 80 dollars
Actual yearly rate of interest paid by Sarah = (80/320) * 100 percent
                                                                     = 25 percent
So 25% yearly interest was paid by Sarah. The correct option is option "C".

The price of the bicycle that Rocco wants to buy is $282. How much will Rocco pay for the bicycle if the state tax rate is 4%?
olasank [31]

Answer:

Rocco payes $292.28

Step-by-step explanation:

Because it is an increase so you put 104% over 100% in fraction form and then  you put 282 at the bottom of another part of a fraction then you do 100 divided by 282 and you get 2.82 so then you take that 2.82 and you multiply it by 104% and you get 292.28 you can use a calculator to check but i know i did it correctly
