If 2x2 + y2 = 17 then evaluate the second derivative of y with respect to x when x = 2 and y = 3. Round your answer to 2 decimal

Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

y''=-1.26

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that $2x^2+y^2=17$

We have evaluate the second order derivative of y w.r.t. x when x=2 and y=3.

Differentiate w.r.t x

Then , we get

$4x+2yy'=0$

$2x+yy'=0$

$yy'=-2x$

$y'=-\frac{2x}{y}$

Again differentiate w.r.t.x

Then , we get

$2+(y')^2+yy''=0$ $(u\cdot v)'=u'v+v'u)$

$2+(y')^2+yy''=0$

Using value of y'

$yy''=-2-(-\frac{2x}{y})^2$

$y''=-\frac{2+(-\frac{2x}{y})^2}{y}$

Substitute x=2 and y=3

Then, we get $y''=-\frac{2+(\frac{4}{3})^2}{3}$

$y''=-\frac{18+16}{9\times 3}=-\frac{34}{27}$

Hence,y''=-1.26

If a conditional statement is “If the sun shines, people will be in good moods”, what is the statement “If the sun does not shin

77julia77 [94]

Answer:

C. Inverse

Step-by-step explanation:

The second statement is the inverse, because in an inverse, the hypothesis and the conclusion are both negated. In this case, the sun doesnt shine and the people wont be in a good mood, as opposed to the sun will shine, and the people will be in a good mood.
