Calculus

The branch of mathematics that deals with the study of continuously changing quantities, with the use of limits and the differentiation and integration of functions of one or more variables, is called Calculus. Calculus analyzes aspects of change in processes or systems that can be modeled by functions. The English physicist, Isaac Newton, and the German mathematician, G. W. Leibniz, working independently, developed calculus during the 17th century.

How do you solve this equation 9 equals 6s?

9 is equal to 6 times x. divide both sides by 6 to leave the x by itself. 9 divided by 6 is 1.5 so x is 1.5.

How does finding a solution to 8 equals 2x-6 help you find the coordinates of a point on the line of the equation y equals 2x-6?

Start with the first equation: 8=2x-6 so 14=2x so x=7

Now insert the answer for x into the second equation:

So y=2(7)-6 so y=14-6 so y=8

So at a certain point x=7 and y=8 so a coordinate would be (7,8)

Solve 4r2 - 7 equals 29?

If I read right, then r= 4.5, so that (4)(4.5)(2)-7=29

6 x plus 9 y equals 18?

The given equation can be simplified to 2x + 3y = 6 but that is about it.

Given 2 unknown variables (x and y) you need two independent equations to solve for them. The only other thing you can so with the above equation is to express

y in terms of x : y = (6 - 2x)/3 = 2 - 2x/3

or

x in terms of y: x = (6 - 3y)/2 = 3 - 3y/2

Both different (and possibly clumsier) ways of saying the same thing as the original equation.

What is the graph for -2x plus 3?

a straight line with a slope of -2 and a y-intercept of 3

5x-10 equals -7 plus 4x?

x=3

That wasn't hard at all.

5x-10=-7+4x

-4x -4x

_____________

x-10=-7

+10 +10

_____________

x=3

What is the solution to the system of equations that contains -3x plus y equals 3 and 2x-y equals -1?

3x + y = 3

2x - y = -1

Add the two equations: 5x + 0y = 2 or x = 2/5 = 0.4

Substitute the value of x in the first equation: 1.2 + y = 3 so y = 3 - 1.2 = 1.8

If f(x) -7x plus 5x2 plus 10 what does f(-2) equal?

Given f(x) = - 7x + 5x^2 + 10

So f(-2) = - 7(-2) + 5 (-2)^2 + 10 = 14 + 20 + 10 = 44

What is the derivative of e-3x?

f'(x)=-3

the derivative of e is zero because its a constant. Derivative of -3x is -3. Bring the exponent of x down in front of the -3 and subtract the original exponent by 1. Ex. -3(1...which is the first exponent of the x)x^0(n-1 or 1-1=0)
all this is -3(1)x^0

x^0 is 1 so the derivative of -3x is -3
