Compute the derivative of <em>y</em> = (<em>x</em>² + <em>x</em> - 2)² using the chain rule:
d<em>y</em>/d<em>x</em> = 2 (<em>x</em>² + <em>x</em> - 2) d/d<em>x</em> [<em>x</em>² + <em>x</em> - 2]
d<em>y</em>/d<em>x</em> = 2 (<em>x</em>² + <em>x</em> - 2) (2<em>x</em> + 1)
Evaluate the derivative at <em>x</em> = -1 :
d<em>y</em>/d<em>x</em> (-1) = 2 ((-1)² + (-1) - 2) (2 (-1) + 1) = 4
This is the slope of the tangent line to the function at (-1, 4).
Use the point-slope formula to get the equation for the tangent line:
<em>y</em> - 4 = 4 (<em>x</em> - (-1)) → <em>y</em> = 4<em>x</em> + 8
Answer:
60° : 75° : 120° : 105°
Step-by-step explanation:
I like to work these by considering the relationship between a "ratio unit" and the angle it represents. Here, the sum of ratio units is 4+5+8+7 = 24. The sum of angles in a quadrilateral is 360°, so each ratio unit must stand for ...
360°/24 = 15°
Multiplying the ratio units by this value, we find the angles to be ...
(4 : 5 : 8 : 7) × 15° = 60° : 75° : 120° : 105°
Hello,
Here is your answer:
The proper answer to your question is option B "20".
Here is how:
Just use this equation:
1500/75=20
Which means its 12!
If you need anymore help feel free to ask me!
Hope this helps!
A would be the correct answer because the y variable only has a coefficient of 1. So we would solve for y, which would get us y=3x+5, then we would substitute the value in the second equation which would look like -4x+5(3x+5)=58. Hope this helpss. :)
