Step-by-step explanation:

you mean "differentiable" ?

well, remember, a line equation is

y = ax + b

a is the slope

it is always, ALWAYS the factor of x.

now we differentiate the line equation per dx/dy

y' = a

and that is that.

the first derivative of an equation of first degree (that means the highest exponent of the variable is 1), which is a line equation, is a constant : the factor of x.

and since the factor of x is the slope, that means that the constant result of the first derivative of the line equation is the slope.

A square is 7 cm on each side what is the area

Zina [86]

Answer:

49 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula for area:

a = l (length) x w (width)

if its 7 cm on each side, then the length and width will be 7

7*7 = 49 cm²

Katie walked a total of 68 kilometers by making 34 trips to school. How many trips will Katie have to make in all to walk a tota

ZanzabumX [31]

Find the distance of each trip:

68 km / 34 trips = 2 km per trip

Divide total distance by distance per trip:

348 km / 2 km per trip = 174 trips

Answer: 174 trips

Find dimensions of the rectangular box of maximum volume that can be inscribed in a sphere of radius a?

ivolga24 [154]

This is an optimization calculus problem where you would need to know a little bit more about the box, atleast i would think. You would just need to use the volume equation of a sphere as the restrictive equation in the optimization problem. Perhaps there is a way to solve with the given information, but i do not know how to.

Answer:

f(3) = -20

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the value of a function, substitute the number for the variable and do the arithmetic.

f(x) = -2x^2 +x -5 . . . . . . given

f(3) = -2(3^2) +(3) -5 . . . . function value for x = 3

f(3) = -2(9) +3 -5 = -18 +3 -5

f(3) = -20
