4. a spring scale is constructed so that each 0.10-n increment is separated by 0.50 cm. what spring constant is necessary for the scale to be accurate? -1.0n/cm -0.10n/cm -9.8 n/cm -0.20n/cm

To find the extreme values of a function f(x.y) on a curve x-x(t), y y(t), treat f as a function of the single variable t and use the chain rule to find where df/dt is zero. in any other single-variable case, the extreme values of f are then found among the values at the critical points (points where df/dt is zero or fails to exist), and endpoints of the parameter domain. find the absolute maximum and minimum values of the following function on the given curves. use the parametric equations x=2cos t, y 2 sin t functions: curves: i) the semicircle x4,y20 i) the quarter circle x2+y-4, x20, y20 b, g(x,y)=xy

Steve wants to develop a way to find the total cost of any item including sales tax. the sales tax in his city is 6%. his friend jenna writes the expression x + 6x where x is the cost of the item. explain whether her expression is correct based on the situation.
