Normal line to the curve y=ln(2x+a) at x=1 is perpendicular to x-4y+2 = 4ln3. Find the value of a.

1 answer:

7 0

Hello,

The normal perpendicular to x-4y+2=4ln(3) or y=(x+2-4ln(3))/4
has as slope -4

So y'=(ln(2x+a))'=1/(2x+a) *2 if x=1 , y'=1/(2+a)
Thus
1/(2+a)=-4 ==>2+a=-1/4==>a=-1/4-2==>a=-9/4

salantis [7]

Answer:

option B

Step-by-step explanation:

given,

3-month T-bill currently yields = 3%

customer price have been rising = 2% rate

Ai Lun's estimate of the real rate = ?

real rate return

= $\dfrac{1 + risk\ free\ rate}{1 +inflation\ rate} - 1$

= $\dfrac{1 + 0.03}{1 +0.02} - 1$

= $\dfrac{1.03}{1 .02} - 1$

= $1.0098 - 1$

= 0.0098

= 0.98 % ≅ 1 %

hence, the correct answer is option B

Put them in order
11,11,12,13,1414,15,15,16,16,16,17,18,18,19,20,21,22
Cross em off on eah side until you reach the middle
16, 16
Since there's 2 instead of 1 middle # Add up the 2 (16+16 = 32)
Then divide by 2 (32/2 = 16)

You're answer is 16
