(a) If there is a scalar function f(x, y) such that ∇ f(x, y) = x² i + y² j, then
∂f/∂x = x²
∂f/∂y = y²
Integrating both of these equations with respect to x and y (respectively) gives
f(x, y) = 1/3 x³ + g(y)
f(x, y) = 1/3 y³ + h(x)
Differentiating with respect to the other variable gives
∂f/∂y = g'(y) = y²
∂f/∂x = h'(x) = x²
so it follows that
f(x, y) = 1/3 x³ + 1/3 y³ + C
for some constant C.
(b) By the gradient theorem,
Answer:
29
Step-by-step explanation:
(x+12) + 100 + x = 180
2x + 112 = 180
Subtract 112 from both sides
2x = 58
Divide 2 from both sides
x = 29

Answer:
(x-2)/(2x+8)
Step-by-step explanation:
The first step to solve this expression is to use a² - 2a b + b² = (a - b)² to factor the expression
Factor out 2 from the expression
Write 2x as a difference
Factor out x from the expression
Factor out -2 from the expression
Factor out x + 4 from the expression
Reduce the fraction with x - 2
Finally,, distribute 2 through the parenthesis to find your answer
This means that the correct answer to your question is (x-2)/(2x+8)
