Suppose y = 2x + 1 , where x and y are functions of t. (a) if dx/dt = 6, find dy/dt when x = 4. dy dt = (b) if dy/dt = 2, find dx/dt when x = 24. dx dt =

(a) For dx/dt=6, dy/dt = 2·6 = 12

(b) For dy/dt=2, 2 = 2·dx/dt ⇒ dx/dt = 1

_____

The value of x is irrelevant for this question.

=====

If your function is 2^x +1 or 2^(x +1), it needs to be written as such. The answer above applies to the function given.

answer: translate the circles so they share a common center point and dilate circle y by a scale factor of 3.
