Answer:

2 tons of dirt per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

helpful to know: 1/6 hours = 10 minutes

you can create a proportion to find unit rate by using (tons of dirt ÷ time)

we'll use 'd' to represent amount of dirt and use minutes

1/3÷10 = d/60

1/3÷10 = 1/3 × 1/10 = 1/30

we now have:

1/30 = d/60

we can cross-multiply to get:

30d = 60

d = 2

Find the domain for the particular solution to the differential equation dy dx equals the quotient of 3 times y and x , with ini

Svetach [21]

For this case we have the following difference equation:
$dy / dx = 3xy
$
Applying separable variables we have:
$dy / y = 3xdx
$
Integrating both sides we have:
$\int\ ({1/y}) \, dy = \int\ {3x} \, dx$
$ln (y) = (3/2) x ^ 2 + C
$
applying exponential to both sides:
$exp (ln (y)) = exp ((3/2) x ^ 2 + C)

 y = C * exp ((3/2) x ^ 2)$
For y (1) = 1 we have:
$C = 1 / (exp ((3/2) * 1 ^ 2))

C = 0.2$
Thus, the particular solution is:
$y = 0.2 * exp ((3/2) x ^ 2)
$
Whose domain is all real.
Answer:
y = 0.2 * exp ((3/2) x ^ 2)
Domain: all real numbers

How do you simplify this and write as a polynomial in standar form? (x-9)3x-7)+(3x^2-5x+2)

nasty-shy [4]

Answer:

Standard form of $(x-9)(3x-7) + (3x^{2} - 5x+2)$ $=6x^{2} - 39x + 65$
