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).

What is 11.25 as a fraction?
s2008m [1.1K]
11.25 is 11 1/4 because if you were to do 1 divided by 4, you would find that the answer is 0.25. But if you need an improper fraction, you would get 45/4 because if you were to put 11 times 4, you would get 44, and 44+1=45. Then you put that on the numerator spot, and you will get 45/4 for improper fraction.

Maslowich

Answer:

0.318

Step-by-step explanation:

on division with 10, the value reduces.... decimal moves forward

on multiplication, the value increases decimal moves backward....

eg: 3.18 x 10 = 31.8
