Rate of change of rational functions

Rate Of Change Of Rational Functions

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

0.635

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]rate~of~change = \dfrac{f(x_2) - f(x1)}{x_2 - x_1}[/tex]

[tex]rate~of~change = \dfrac{f(x_2) - f(x1)}{x_2 - x_1}[/tex]

[tex] x_1 = 0 [/tex]       [tex]x_2 = 0.3[/tex]

[tex] f(x) = \dfrac{-7x^3}{x^4 - 1} [/tex]

[tex] f(x_1) = f(0) = \dfrac{-7(0)^3}{(0)^4 - 1} [/tex]

[tex] f(x_1) = \dfrac{0}{-1} = 0 [/tex]

[tex] f(x_2) = f(0.3) = \dfrac{-7(0.3)^3}{(0.3)^4 - 1} [/tex]

[tex]f(x_2) = \dfrac{-0.189}{-0.9919} = 0.190543[/tex]

[tex] rate~of~change = \dfrac{0.190543 - 0}{0.3 - 0} = 0.635 [/tex]

Answer:

Length is 18; width is 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the perimeter of a rectangle is:

[tex]P=2l+2w[/tex]

We are given that the perimeter is 48 feet. We are also told that the length is 3 times the width. In other words:

[tex]l=3w[/tex]

So, substitute this for l and 48 for P. Thus:

[tex]48=2(3w)+2w[/tex]

Distribute:

[tex]48=6w+2w[/tex]

Combine like terms:

[tex]48=8w[/tex]

Divide both sides by 8:

[tex]w=6[/tex]

So, the width is 6.

The length as we know is 3 times the width, so the length is 3(6) is 18.

And we are done!

Select the measurement scale in the right column that best matches the description in the left column. Note that each scale (nominal scale, ordinal scale, interval scale, and ratio scale) will be used exactly once. 1. Values measured on this scale can be compared such that you can say, for example, one value is twice as big as another value. 2. The values of data measured on this scale can be rank ordered and have meaningful differences between scale points.3. The values of data measured on this scale can be a number or a name, but they cannot be rank ordered. 4. The values of data measured on this scale can be rank ordered.

Answers

Answer:

1. RATIO SCALE

2. INTERVAL SCALE

3. NOMINAL SCALE

4. ORDINAL SCALE

Step-by-step explanation:

The scales are:

- Nominal Scale

- Ordinal Scale

- Interval Scale

- Ratio Scale

Rule: Each scale will be used exactly once.

For number 1, the description is that of a Ratio Scale because size comparisons can be made between values on the scale, such as the example given - that one value is twice as big as another value.

For number 2, the description is that of an Interval Scale because the values of data measured on the scale can be ranked e.g. Yes ranks as 1, No ranks as 2, Indifferent ranks as 3 and there is meaningful difference (not numerical difference) between scale points.

For number 3, the description is that of a Nominal Scale, because it says obviously that the values of data measured on this scale can be in form of names (watch out for keywords like this when reading through) and cannot be rank ordered! A good example is the following data set:

- Yellow, Brown, Purple, Cream, Fustian Pink

For number 4, the description is that of an Ordinal Scale. A keyword "rank" is to be given attention here, even as the statement is straightforward and gives just a simple information.

Distance:
Displacement:

Answers

Answer: Distance = 15km ; Displacement ≅ 11'2km

Step-by-step explanation:

In Physics when we speak of distance we refer to the space traveled that is always measured on the trajectory, while displacement refers to the space from an initial position to a final position regardless of the path. When the path is a straight line, the space traveled is equal to the module of the displacement.

Distance: 5km + 5km + 5km = 15km (Red lines)

Displacement² : (10km)² + (5km)² = 100km² + 25km² = 125km²

Displacement : √125km² ≅ 11'2km  (Blue line)

Question:

Express each vector as a product of its length and direction.

[tex]\frac{1}{\sqrt{6}}i - \frac{1}{\sqrt{6}}j - \frac{1}{\sqrt{6}}k[/tex]

Answer:

[tex]\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}[/tex] [tex](\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}i - \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}j - \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}k)[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

A vector v can be expressed as a product of its length and direction as follows;

v = |v| u

Where;

|v| = length/magnitude of v

u = unit vector in the direction of v

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Let the given vector be v, i.e

[tex]v = \frac{1}{\sqrt{6}}i - \frac{1}{\sqrt{6}}j - \frac{1}{\sqrt{6}}k[/tex]

(i) The length/magnitude |v| of vector v is therefore,

|v| = [tex]\sqrt{(\frac{1}{\sqrt{6}})^2 + (-\frac{1}{\sqrt{6}})^2 + (-\frac{1}{\sqrt{6}})^2[/tex]

|v| = [tex]\sqrt{(\frac{1}{6}) + (\frac{1}{6}) + (\frac{1}{6})[/tex]

|v| = [tex]\sqrt{(\frac{3}{6})[/tex]

|v| = [tex]\sqrt{(\frac{1}{2})[/tex]

|v| = [tex]\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}[/tex]

(ii) The unit vector u in the direction of vector v, is therefore,

u = [tex]\frac{v}{|v|}[/tex]

[tex]u = \frac{\frac{1}{\sqrt{6}}i - \frac{1}{\sqrt{6}}j - \frac{1}{\sqrt{6}}k}{\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}}[/tex]

[tex]u = \sqrt{2}(\frac{1}{\sqrt{6}}i - \frac{1}{\sqrt{6}}j - \frac{1}{\sqrt{6}}k)[/tex]

[tex]u = (\frac{\sqrt{2}}{\sqrt{6}}i - \frac{\sqrt{2}}{\sqrt{6}}j - \frac{\sqrt{2}}{\sqrt{6}}k)[/tex]

[tex]u = (\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}i - \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}j - \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}k)[/tex]

Therefore, the vector can be expressed as a product of its length and direction as:

|v| u = [tex]\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}[/tex] [tex](\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}i - \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}j - \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}k)[/tex]

True or False? Natural Numbers are closed under division.

Answers

Answer: False

Natural numbers are not closed under division

Some natural numbers divide to get another natural number. For example, divide 10 over 2 to get 10/2 = 5.

However, there are infinitely many natural numbers that divide to get something that isn't a natural number. Example: 10/7 = 1.43 approximately. All we need is one counterexample to contradict the original statement.

A set is considered closed under division if dividing any two values in that set leads to another value in the set. More formally, if a & b are in some set then a/b must also be in the same set for that set to be closed under division.

If we changed "natural numbers" to "rational numbers", then that set is closed under division. If p, q are rational numbers then p/q is also rational. Basically, dividing any two fraction leads to some other fraction. The value of q cannot be zero.

On a road map, the locations A, B and C are collinear. Location C divides the road from location A to B, such that AC:CB = 1:2. If location A is at (5,16) and location C is at (3,10). Find the coordinates of location B. A. (1,4) B. (4,13) C. (-1,-2)

Answers

Answer:

C. (-1,-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Since C internally divides AB in the ratio AC/CB = 1/2 = m/n where m = 1 and n = 2, we use the formula for internal division.

Let A = (x₁, y₁) = (5, 16), B = (x₂, y₂) and C = (x, y) = (3, 10)

So x = (mx₂ + nx₁)/(m + n)

y = (my₂ + ny₁)/(m + n)

Substituting the values of the coordinates, we have

x = (mx₂ + nx₁)/(m + n)

3 = (1 × x₂ + 2 × 5)/(2 + 1)

3 = (x₂ + 10)/3

multiplying through by 3, we have

9 = x₂ + 10

x₂ = 9 - 10

x₂ = -1

y = (my₂ + ny₁)/(m + n)

10 = (1 × y₂ + 2 × 16)/(2 + 1)

10 = (x₂ + 32)/3

multiplying through by 3, we have

30 = y₂ + 32

y₂ = 30 - 32

y₂ = -2

So, the coordinates of B are (-1, -2)

C is the midpoint of segment AB. Find the value of m+k.

A(-3,m)

B (4, -1)

C (k, 2)

Answers

Answer:

The value of m + k = [tex]5+\frac{1}{2}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{11}{2}[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that C is the midpoint of segment AB where A(-3,m) , B (4, -1) , and C (k, 2).

As we know that the mid-point formula states that;

Mid-point = [tex]\frac{a+b}{2}[/tex]

This means that;

Mid-point of AB = [tex]\frac{A+B}{2}[/tex]

C(k, 2) = [tex](\frac{-3+4}{2}, \frac{m+(-1)}{2} )[/tex]

C(k, 2) = [tex](\frac{1}{2}, \frac{m-1}{2} )[/tex]

This means that;

[tex]k = \frac{1}{2}[/tex]  and  [tex]2=\frac{m-1}{2}[/tex]

[tex]k = \frac{1}{2}[/tex]  and  [tex]m-1=4[/tex]

[tex]k = \frac{1}{2}[/tex]  and  [tex]m = 4+1 = 5[/tex]

So, the value of m + k = [tex]5+\frac{1}{2}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{11}{2}[/tex].

Find an equation of the sphere with center (-3, 2 , 5) and radius 4. What is the intersection of this sphere with the yz-plane.

Answers

Answer:

The equation of the sphere with center (-3, 2 , 5) and radius 4 is [tex](x+3)^{2} +(y-2)^{2} + (z-5)^{2} = 16[/tex]

The intersection of the sphere with the yz- plane gave the equation [tex](y-2)^{2} + (z-5)^{2} = 7[/tex] which is a 2D- circle with center (0,2,5) and radius [tex]\sqrt{7}[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a sphere of radius r, with center (a,b,c) is given by

[tex](x-a)^{2} +(y-b)^{2} + (z-c)^{2} = r^{2}[/tex]

where, [tex]x,[/tex] [tex]y,[/tex] and [tex]z[/tex] are the coordinates of the points on the surface of the sphere.

Hence, the equation of the sphere with center,  (-3, 2 , 5) and radius 4 becomes

[tex](x-a)^{2} +(y-b)^{2} + (z-c)^{2} = r^{2}[/tex]

[tex](x-(-3))^{2} +(y-(2))^{2} + (z-(5))^{2} = 4^{2}[/tex]

Then,

[tex](x+3)^{2} +(y-2)^{2} + (z-5)^{2} = 16[/tex]

This is the equation of the sphere with center (-3, 2 , 5) and radius 4,

Now, for the intersection of this sphere with the yz- plane,

The [tex]yz -[/tex]plane is where [tex]x = 0[/tex], then we set [tex]x = 0[/tex]

Them the equation [tex](x+3)^{2} +(y-2)^{2} + (z-5)^{2} = 16[/tex] becomes

[tex](0+3)^{2} +(y-2)^{2} + (z-5)^{2} = 16[/tex]

[tex](3)^{2} +(y-2)^{2} + (z-5)^{2} = 16\\9 +(y-2)^{2} + (z-5)^{2} = 16\\(y-2)^{2} + (z-5)^{2} = 16 - 9\\(y-2)^{2} + (z-5)^{2} = 7[/tex]

This equation is the equation of a 2D- circle with center (0,2,5) and radius [tex]\sqrt{7}[/tex]

This is the part of the sphere that intersects with the yz-plane.
