Parallel to : y = 1/2x - 8

Passes through (-6, -17)

Our given slope is 1/2.

Plug the given coordinates into point-slope form.

y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)

y - (-17) = 1/2(x - (-6))

Simplify.

y + 17 = 1/2(x + 6)  ← Your answer.

However, sometimes teachers want this simplified even further.

So, simplify this.

y + 17 = 1/2x + 3

Subtract 17 from both sides.

y = 1/2x + 3 - 17

Simplify.

y = 1/2x - 14 ← Slope-intercept form.

Standard form → -1/2x + y = -14

Gala2k [10]

Answer:

-5

Step-by-step explanation:

or, f(x) = -x^2+10x+16

or, f(7) = (-7)^2+10*-7+16 (-7*-7=49)

=49-70+16

=65-70

Write ln(x^3y^2) in terms of u and v (picture provided)
Katena32 [7]

Remember the properties of logarithms. If you have ln81, you can pull out the power of two (9^2) and have 2ln9. Also, you could do ln9 + ln9 because 9*9=81 and ln9*9 = ln9 + ln9

With these properties, you can get 3lnx+2lny, which is 3u+2v according to the answer.

Hope I helped!

The price of a certain computer stock t days after it is issued for sale is p(t)=100+20t−6t^2 dollars. The price of the stock in
Elanso [62]

Answer:

0 < t < \frac{5}{3}

After 1.67 days the stocks would be sold out.

Step-by-step explanation:

The price of a certain computer stock after t days is modeled by

p(t) = 100 + 20t - 6t²

Now we will take the derivative of the given function and equate it to zero to find the critical points,

p'(t) = 20 - 12t = 0

t = \frac{20}{12}

t = \frac{5}{3} days

Therefore, there are two intervals in which the given function is defined

(0, \frac{5}{3}) and (\frac{5}{3}, ∞)

For the interval (0, \frac{5}{3}),

p'(1) = 20 - 12(1) = 20

For the interval (\frac{5}{3}, ∞),

p'(2) = 20 - 12(2) = -4

Positive value of p'(t) in the interval (0, \frac{5}{3}) indicates that the function is increasing.

0 < t < \frac{5}{3}

Since at the point t = 1.67 days curve is showing the maximum, so the stocks should be sold after 1.67 days.
