Given:
1/2 loaf of bread
3 friends

1/2 ÷ 3 ⇒ 1/2 * 1/3 = 1*1 / 2*3 = 1/6

In dividing fractions, get the reciprocal of the divisor and multiply it to the dividend

Find any relative extrema of the function. (Round your answers to three decimal places.)
Strike441 [17]

(x) = arcsec(x) − 8x

f'(x) = d/dx( arcsec(x) − 8x )

<span> 1/xsqrt( x^2 - 1) - 8</span>

f'(x) = 0

1/xsqrt( x^2 - 1) - 8 = 0

8 x sqrt (x^2-1) = 1

<span> ( 8 x sqrt (x^2-1) )^2 = 1</span>

64 x^2 ( x^2 - 1) = 1

64 x^4 - 64 x^2 =1

64 x^4 - 64 x^2 - 1 = 0

x = 1.00766 , - 1.00766

<span> x =   - 1.00766</span>

f(- 1.00766) = arcsec(- 1.00766) − 8( - 1.00766)

f( - 1.00766 ) = 11.07949

x = 1.00766

f(1.00766) = arcsec(1.00766) − 8( 1.00766)

f(1.00766 ) = -7.93790

relative maximum (x, y) = (- 1.00766 , 11.07949 ) relative minimum (x, y) = ( 1.00766 , -7.93790  )

A flea treatment last 4 weeks. Jim's dog had to be treated every 3 weeks. How many weeks of flea treatment would Jim's dog get i
Reptile [31]

Answer:

Number of weeks in a year = 52 weeks

If in a normal year when each package of flea treatment lasts for 4 weeks, then in a year there Jim's dog will have to be treated for

Where as, when the fleas are bad in a year, the treatment lasts for only 3 weeks.

Then in a year Jim's dog would get

So Jim's dog will get 17- 13 =4 treatments more.

4 treatments that are made in 3 weeks each will be 4×3 =12 weeks more treatment

A drawing of a surfboard in a catalog shows its length as 8 4/9 inches. Find the actual length of the surfboard if 1/2 inch leng
jonny [76]
3/8 of a foot = 3/8 x 12/1  or 4  1/2 inches

So our 1/2 inch grows by a factor of 9  because 4 1/2 ÷ 1/2 = 9  Think how many 1/2 dollars are in 4  1/2 dollars.  (Answer is 9)

So our 8 4/9 in the catalog has to grow the same

8  4/9   x 9  = 8  4/9  x 9/1 = 76/9 x 9/1  or 76 inches which is 6 ft 4 inches.
(76 ÷12 = 6 r4)

The function f(x) = xπ−−√ gives the diameter, in inches, of a proposed spherical sculpture with a surface area of x square inche
natka813 [3]

Answer:

The average rate of change of f(x) = 3.14 inches⁻¹

The change in f(x) = 49.32 in

Step-by-step explanation:

The surface area of the spherical sculpture = x and its diameter f(x) = πx.

The average rate of change of f(x) as x changes is df(x)/dx = π = 3.14

Now the change in diameter Δf(x) = df(x) = (df(x)/dx)dx = πdx  

dx = Δx = 28.3 in² - 12.6 in² = 15.7 in²

df(x) = π × 15.7 = 49.32 in
