Solve Word Problem: Find a and b in T(t)=250-ae^(-bt)
I think I have found b 180 = 250 - ae^-40b 150 = 250 - ae^-30b -70 = -ae^-40b 70/e^-40b = a -100 = -70/e^-40b * e^-30b 100/70 = e^40b * e ^-30b 10/7 = e^10b ln 10/7 = 10 b b = ln(10/7)/10 but how do I find a?- betsinda

Is a graph Continuous and differentiable at a given point
B) is f differentiable at x = (1/2) explain So I could say that function is not differentiable at x=1/2 as the function is not not continuous? Sorry for being a little slow I'm just trying to wrap my head around the concept. Thanks- betsinda

Is a graph Continuous and differentiable at a given point
based on the fact that well every function is not differentiable, very function that is differentiable is continous. Or am I misunderstanding the concept?- betsinda

Is a graph Continuous and differentiable at a given point
would it then be correct to say that x=1/2 is not differentiable as it is not continuous at that point?- betsinda

I would say that the graph is not continuous at x=1/2 as that point does not connect to any other point on the graph.- betsinda

Is a graph Continuous and differentiable at a given point
okay, I have fixed the graph. I have a line going from (1/2, 1) (1,1)(2,1) ect and a line going from (1/2,-1)(0,-1)(1,-1) ect, and a point at (1/2,0). How do i determine if this is continuous at 1/2?- betsinda

the line from the left approaches (1/2) at +1 and restarts at (1/2) at -1. There is a single point at (0,1/2)- betsinda
