The curve C has equation 4x^2 – y^3 – 4xy + 2^y = 0 The point P with coordinates (–2, 4) lies on C . Find the exact value of dy/dx at the point P .

Since we need to find dy/dx, we must first differentiate the equation implicitly which gives us: 8x - 3y2dy/dx - 4y - 4xdy/dx + 2yln(2)dy/dx = 0. Because we are given a point, we can...

At what point(s) do lines y = x^2 - 5x - 14 and y = 3x + 2 intersect? Write your answer in surd form

To find the point(s) where these two lines intersect we will first find the x coordinate of the point(s) where they intersect snd use this to find the corresponding y coordinate by substituting the x valu...

How can I use the normal distribution table to find probabilities other than P(z<Z)?

The normal distribution tables show, for a given Z value, the probability that the random variable z takes a value less than Z or P(z<Z). This is also the area under the normal distribution curve up to...

A curve is defined by the parametric equations x=(t-1)^3, y=3t-8/(t^2), t is not equal to zero. Find dy/dx in terms of t.

We see that x and y are both expressed in terms of t and as we are looking to define dy/dx in terms of t, the first step we take is to find the derivatives of x and y in terms of t as follows.x = (t-1)^3d...

In an office there are twice as many females as males. 1/4 of the females wear glasses. 3/8 of the males wear glasses. 84 people in the office wear glasses. Work out the number of people in the office.

office that is females with glasses=(2/3)(1/4)=1/6 office that is males wearing glasses=(1/3)(3/8)=1/8 (1/6)/(1/8) = 8/6=4/3 so there is a ratio of 4:3 women to men wearing glasses 84*(4/7)=12
