EXAMPLE 4 Find ∂z/∂x and ∂z/∂y if z is defined implicitly as a function of x and y by the equation x6 + y6 + z6 + 18xyz = 1. SOLUTION To find ∂z/∂x, we differentiate implicitly with respect to x, being careful to treat y as a constant:

Adam plans to choose a video game from the section of the store where everything is 75% off. he writes the expression d-0.75d to find the sale price of the game if the original price is d dollars. gena correctly writes another expression, 0.25d, that will also find the sale price of the game if the original price is d dollars. use the drop down menus to explain each part of adams and rena's expression

Ten times the square of a non-zero number is eqaul to ninety times the number

1- what do you think the product of a nonzero rational number and an irrational number is? is it rational or irrational? make use of variables, the closure property of integers, and possibly a proof by contradiction to prove your hypothesis.2- why do we have to specify that the rational number must be nonzero when we determine what the product of a nonzero rational number and an irrational number is? if the rational number were 0, would it give us the same result we found in the first question?
