Find the value for k for which y= 2x+k is a tangent to the curve y=2x^2-3 and determine the point of intersection

Answers:  

k = -3.5

Intersection point is (0.5, -2.5)

================================================

Explanation:

Apply the derivative to y=2x^2-3 and you should get dy/dx = 4x

The derivative helps determine the slope of the tangent at any point on the curve.

The slope of the tangent line y = 2x+k is 2.

We want the slope of the tangent to be 2, so we'll replace the dy/dx with 2 and solve for x.

dy/dx = 4x

2 = 4x

x = 2/4

x = 0.5

Plug this into the curve's original equation.

y = 2x^2 - 3

y = 2(0.5)^2 - 3

y = -2.5

Therefore, the tangent line y = 2x+k and the curve y = 2x^2-3 intersect at the point (0.5, -2.5). This is the point of tangency.

We'll use the coordinates of this point to determine k.

y = 2x+k

-2.5 = 2(0.5) + k

-2.5 = 1 + k

k = -2.5-1

k = -3.5

Visual verification is shown below. I used GeoGebra to make the graph, but you could use any other tool you prefer (such as Desmos).

Describe how you know that this is a proportional relationship
Deffense [45]

Answer:

(Some textbooks describe a proportional relationship by saying that " y varies proportionally with x " or that " y is directly proportional to x .") ... This means that as x increases, y increases and as x decreases, y decreases-and that the ratio between them always stays the same.

\/
30
Second step is to combine negative like terms with 30
30-3-9

When you do this you add 9 and 3 together since they are similar to each other so it equals 12 there for the equation becomes.....
30-12

Write an equation in point-slope form for the line through the given point with the given slope.
zlopas [31]

Answer:

y+1 = -1(x+10)

Step-by-step explanation:

The point slope equation of a line is

y-y1 = m(x-x1) where m is the slope  and (x1, y1) is a point on the line

y - -1 = -1 (x --10)

y+1 = -1(x+10)
