To bill customers for water usage, one city converts the number of gallons used into units. This relationship is represented by

the equation g = 748u, where g is the total number of gallons of water used and u is the number of units.
Determine which statements about the relationship are true. Check all that apply.

g is the dependent variable.
u is the dependent variable.
g is the independent variable.
u is the independent variable.
The variables cannot be labeled without a table of values.
The variables cannot be labeled since any value can be selected for either.

Answer:

option (a) and (d) is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : To bill customers for water usage, one city converts the number of gallons used into units.

This relationship is represented by the equation g = 748u

where, g is the total number of gallons of water used and u is the number of units.

We have to check out of given options which statement about the relationship is true.

Since, given relationship is g = 748u.

We can put any value of u and find the corresponding value of g at that u.

For example

Since, u is the number of units used Let it be 30 units.

Then , we can find g , the total number of gallons of water used

By the relationship as g = 748u

Putting u = 30 , we get g = 748(30) = 22440 gallons.

So, here g depends on u and u is independent variable.

Thus, option (a) and (d) is correct.

We are given equation g = 748u, where g is the total number of gallons of water used and u is the number of units.

We can see that the number of units of water being used by customers.

The number of units of water doesn't depend on the total number of gallons of water used.

Therefore, the number of units u is an independent variable.

The value of the total number of gallons is totally depends on the number of units used.

Therefore, the total number of gallons of water used g is a dependent variable.

So, we can conclude following statements:

1) g is the dependent variable.

2) u is the independent variable.

5 bricklayers can lay a total of 50 bricks in 30 minutes. How many bricklayers will

iragen [17]

Answer:

First look at the number of bricks alone.

Going from 50 bricks to 60 bricks is more work, thus it will require more people. The number of people would be the ratio of the 2. Since the number must be larger, you know the numerator must be the larger of the 2 numbers, so you get 60/50

Next look at the time alone.

Going from 30 minutes to 20 minutes is more work, thus it will require more people. The number of people would be the ratio of the 2. Since the number must be larger, you know the numerator must be the larger of the 2 numbers, so you get 30/20

Now you can just multiply everything.

= 5*60/50*30/20

= 5*6/5*3/2

= 90\10

= 9.

EXAMPLE 5 If F(x, y, z) = 4y2i + (8xy + 4e4z)j + 16ye4zk, find a function f such that ∇f = F. SOLUTION If there is such a functi

Valentin [98]

If there is such a scalar function <em>f</em>, then

$\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial x}=4y^2$

$\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial y}=8xy+4e^{4z}$

$\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial z}=16ye^{4z}$

Integrate both sides of the first equation with respect to <em>x</em> :

$f(x,y,z)=4xy^2+g(y,z)$

Differentiate both sides with respect to <em>y</em> :

$\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial y}=8xy+4e^{4z}=8xy+\dfrac{\partial g}{\partial y}$

$\implies\dfrac{\partial g}{\partial y}=4e^{4z}$

Integrate both sides with respect to <em>y</em> :

$g(y,z)=4ye^{4z}+h(z)$

Plug this into the equation above with <em>f</em> , then differentiate both sides with respect to <em>z</em> :

$f(x,y,z)=4xy^2+4ye^{4z}+h(z)$

$\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial z}=16ye^{4z}=16ye^{4z}+\dfrac{\mathrm dh}{\mathrm dz}$

$\implies\dfrac{\mathrm dh}{\mathrm dz}=0$

Integrate both sides with respect to <em>z</em> :

$h(z)=C$

So we end up with

$\boxed{f(x,y,z)=4xy^2+4ye^{4z}+C}$

Find the gradient of the line segment between the points (2,3) and (-3,8).

fiasKO [112]

Answer:

$m = -1$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Points (2,3) and (-3,8)

Required

Determine the gradient

Gradient (m) is calculated by dividing the change in y values by the change in x values.

i.e.

$m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}$

Where:

$(x_1,y_1) = (2,3)$

$(x_2,y_2) = (-3,8)$

$m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}$ becomes

$m = \frac{8 - 3}{-3 -2}$

$m = \frac{5}{-5}$

$m = -1$

<em>Hence, the gradient is -1</em>
