Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

to do this you just need to work through the maths, Eg simplify 12/6 to 2 and cancel the (x-2) this will give you an answer of 2(x-2) / X=5

Use implicit differentiation to find an equation of the tangent line to the curve at the given point. x2/3 + y2/3 = 4 (−3 3 , 1)

vovikov84 [41]

Answer with Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that an equation of curve

$x^{\frac{2}{3}}+y^{\frac{2}{3}}=4$

We have to find the equation of tangent line to the given curve at point $(-3\sqrt3,1)$

By using implicit differentiation, differentiate w.r.t x

$\frac{2}{3}x^{-\frac{1}{3}}+\frac{2}{3}y^{-\frac{1}{3}}\frac{dy}{dx}=0$

Using formula : $\frac{dx^n}{dx}=nx^{n-1}$

$\frac{2}{3}y^{-\frac{1}{3}}\frac{dy}{dx}=-\frac{2}{3}x^{-\frac{1}{3}}$

$\frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{-\frac{2}{3}x^{-\frac{1}{3}}}{\frac{2}{3}y^{-\frac{1}{3}}}$

$\frac{dy}{dx}=-\frac{x^{-\frac{1}{3}}}{y^{-\frac{1}{3}}}$

Substitute the value x= $-3\sqrt3,y=1$

Then, we get

$\frac{dy}{dx}=-\frac{(-3\sqrt3)^{-\frac{1}{3}}}{1}$

$\frac{dy}{dx}=-(-3^{\frac{3}{2}})^{-\frac{1}{3}}=-\frac{1}{-(3)^{\frac{3}{2}\times \frac{1}{3}}}=\frac{1}{\sqrt3}$

Slope of tangent=m= $\frac{1}{\sqrt3}$

Equation of tangent line with slope m and passing through the point $(x_1,y_1)$ is given by

$y-y_1=m(x-x_1)$

Substitute the values then we get

The equation of tangent line is given by

$y-1=\frac{1}{\sqrt3}(x+3\sqrt3)$

$y-1=\frac{x}{\sqrt3}+3$

$y=\frac{x}{\sqrt3}+3+1$

$y=\frac{x}{\sqrt3}+4$

This is required equation of tangent line to the given curve at given point.

The three shoppers spent 204$ in all . How much did each girl spend?

aleksley [76]

We would divide $204 by 3 to find out how much did each shopper spent. $204/3 is $68. So, each shopper spent $68. Hope this helped!

Three salesmen work for the same company, selling the same product. And, although they are all paid on a weekly basis, each sale

Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

12 sales

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of sales each man had.

For Salesman A, he earns $65 per sale; this is 65x.

For Salesman B, he earns $40 per sale; this is 40x. We also add to this his weekly salary of $300; this gives us 40x+300.

Since their pay was equal, set the two expressions equal:

65x = 40x+300

Subtract 40x from each side:

65x-40x = 40x+300-40x

25x = 300

Divide both sides by 25:

25x/25 = 300/25

x = 12
