How to take derivative of absolute value.

Answers

Answer 1

The absolute value function is defined as

[tex]|x| = \begin{cases}x & \text{for }x \ge 0 \\ -x & \text{for }x < 0\end{cases}[/tex]

If x is strictly positive (x > 0), then |x| = x, and d|x|/dx = dx/dx = 1.

If x is strictly negative (x < 0), then |x| = -x, and d|x|/dx = d(-x)/dx = -1.

But if x = 0, the derivative doesn't exist!

In order for the derivative of a function f(x) to exist at x = c, the limit

[tex]\displaystyle \lim_{x\to c}\frac{f(x) - f(c)}{x-c}[/tex]

must exist. This limit does not exist for f(x) = |x| and c = 0 because the value of the limit depends on which way x approaches 0.

If x approaches 0 from below (so x < 0), we have

[tex]\displaystyle \lim_{x\to 0^-}\frac{|x|}x = \lim_{x\to0^-}-\frac xx = -1[/tex]

whereas if x approaches 0 from above (so x > 0), we have

[tex]\displaystyle \lim_{x\to 0^+}\frac{|x|}x = \lim_{x\to0^+}\frac xx = 1[/tex]

But 1 ≠ -1, so the limit and hence derivative doesn't exist at x = 0.

Putting everything together, you can define the derivative of |x| as

[tex]\dfrac{d|x|}{dx} = \begin{cases}1 & \text{for } x > 0 \\ \text{unde fined} & \text{for }x = 0 \\ -1 & \text{for }x < 0 \end{cases}[/tex]

What is the equation of the circle in center - radius form: x² + y2 + 12x - 10y
- 7 = 0?

Answers

Answer:

Radius:  √ 61

Step-by-step explanation:

Complete the square for  x^ 2 + 12 x = ( x + 6 ) ^2 − 36

Substitute   ( x + 6 ) 2 − 36  for  x 2 + 12 x  in the equation  x 2 + y 2 + 12 x − 10 y = 0

= ( x + 6 ) 2 − 36 + y 2 − 10 y = 0

Move  − 36  to the right side of the equation by adding  36  to both sides

= ( x + 6 ) 2 + y 2 − 10 y = 0 + 36

Then you know the rest: radius will be √ 61

The center coordinate of the circle is (6,5) with a radius = 7.34

What is the equation of the circle?

The equation of the circle is: [tex](x-a)^{2} + (y-b)^{2} = r^{2} x^{2}[/tex]

Substituting the values in the equation:

[tex](x-a)^{2} + (y-b)^{2} = r^{2} x^{2} - 2ax + a^{2} + y^{2} - 2by +b^{2} - r^{2} = 0[/tex]

⇒  -2ax =  -12x

⇒  a = 6.

-2by = -10y

b= 5.

⇒ a² + b² - r² =  -7

⇒  6² + 5² + r² = -7

⇒ 36 + 25 + r² =  -7

⇒ r² = 54

r = 7.34

Center coordinate (6,5) with r = 7.34

What is a expression? What is a mathematical equation? What is Equation Modelling?

A mathematical expression is made up of terms (constants and variables) separated by mathematical operators. A mathematical equation is used to equate two expressions. Equation modelling is the process of writing a mathematical verbal expression in the form of a mathematical expression for correct analysis, observations and results of the given problem.

We have a 9-ounce can of peaches sells for $1.26.

9-ounce can of peaches sells for $1.26.

Then -

1 ounce of peach will cost = (1.26/9) = $0.14

Therefore, the unit price of peach would be $0.14.

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

it is a linear function, if the change in y is constant in relation to the changes of x.

in other words, if the slope y change/x change is the same for every point.

when we look at the table, we see x changes constantly by +2.

and y changes constantly by -6.

so, the change rate/slope is constantly -6/2 = -3.

and therefore it is a linear function.

the equation looks like (the slope is always the factor of x)

y = -3x + b

b we get by using one of the x,y pairs like 1,4

4 = -3×1 + b = -3 + b

b = 7

so, the full equation is

y = -3x + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the table of values, {(-3, 16), (-1, 10), (1, 4), (3, -2), (5, -8)}:

We must determine whether the given relation or data can be modeled by a linear equation.  It is necessary to analyze the pattern that exists between changes in y-values, along with the changes in x-values.

X-coordinates:

Subtracting the x-coordinates provides a constant difference of 2:

Starting with the first two rows, given by the ordered pairs, (-3, 16) and (-1, 10):  Subtract the two x-coordinates: -1 - (-3) = -1 + 3 = 2.For the second and third rows, given by the ordered pairs, (-1, 10) and (1, 4): Subtract the two x-coordinates: 1 - (-1) = 1 + 1 = 2.

If you perform these same steps throught the remaining rows, then you'll get the same difference of 2.

Y-coordinates:

We can perform the same steps for the y-coordinates. Subtracting the y-coordinates provides a constant difference of -6.

Starting with the first two rows, given by the ordered pairs, (-3, 16) and (-1, 10):  Subtract the two y-coordinates: 10 - 16 = -6.For the second and third rows, given by the ordered pairs, (-1, 10) and (1, 4): Subtract the two y-coordinates: 4 - 10 = -6.  

If you perform these same steps throught the remaining rows, then you'll get the same difference of -6.

Slope

Since the constant change in y = -6, and the constant change in x = 2, then we can calculate for the slope as: Δy/Δx = -6/2 = - 3.  Hence, the constant rate of change = -3.

As demonstrated throughout this post, we can infer that there is a linear pattern that exists between the x- and y-values.

Therefore, the data can be modeled by a linear equation because the rate of change is constant.

Linear Equation:

In order to establish the linear equation that represents y as a function of x, we can use the slope, m = -3, and one of the given ordered pairs, (1, 4), to solve for the value of the y-intercept, b. Substitute these values into the slope-intercept form, y = mx + b:

y = mx + b

4 = (-3)1 + b

4 = -3 + b

Add 3 to both sides to isolate b:

4 + 3 = -3 + 3 + b

7 = b

Therefore, the linear equation that represents the given data is: y = -3x + 7.

Answers

Using the slope - intercept relation, the equation which represents the cost of cab ride is y = 0.5x + 6.50

Cost per ride = $6.50Cost per mile = $0.50

Using the slope - intercept relation :

y = bx + c

b = change in cost per mile

c = constant price added for every taxi ride

Hence, the expression can be written thus :

Answer:

x2 + (y + 8)2 = 36

Step-by-step explanation:

:) took the test

The equations which represent circles that have a diameter of 12 units and a center that lies on the y-axis are x² + (y – 3)² = 36 and x² + (y + 8)² = 36.

What is the Standard form of a Circle?

Standard form of a circle is given by the equation,

(x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²

where, (h, k) is the center of the circle and r is the radius of the circle.

Given that,

A circle has a diameter of 12 units.

So radius = 12 / 2 = 6 units

Center of the circle lies on the Y axis.

So the x coordinate of the center of the circle will be 0.

So, in (h, k), h = 0

So the equation will be of the form,

(x - 0)² + (y - k)² = 6²

x² + (y - k)² = 36

Hence the options are x² + (y – 3)² = 36 and x² + (y + 8)² = 36.

Urgent! At a baseball game, a vender sold a combined total of 241 sodas and hot dogs. The number of sodas sold was 55 more than the number of hot dogs sold. Find the number of sodas sold and the number of hot dogs sold.

Answers

Answer:

Sodas = 148

Hot dogs = 93

Step-by-step explanation:

Let S and H stand for the number of Sodas and Hot dogs, respectively.

We are told that:

H + S = 241

We are also told that:

S = H + 55

Use the second expression for S (H+55) in the first equation:

H + S = 241

H + (H+55) = 241

2H + 55 = 241

2H = 186

H = 93

Since H = 93,

S = 93+55, or 148

148 + 93 = 241  [Checks]

Sodas = 148

Hot dogs = 93
