Answer:

y=-2

Step-by-step explanation:

y+3y+5y=−18

Combine like terms

9y = -18

Divide each side by 9

9y/9 = -18/9

y = -2

Mary leaves her house to take a walk. The graph shows the distance, d, in feet from her house that Mary is at any given time, t,

Vitek1552 [10]

You haven't provided the graph, therefore, I cannot provide you with a specific solution for this question.
However, I will tell you how to solve it and you can apply on the graph you have.

Now, we are given that:
x-axis represents the distance in ft
y-axis represents the time in minutes

To get the time that she has walked when she reaches the farthest point from her house, all you have to do is:
1- go to the greatest point on the x-axis. This point would be representing the farthest distance.
2- get the value of the y corresponding to the x-point you got in step one. This would be the time walked when she reaches the farthest point which is the value you are looking for.

Hope this helps :)

Find the equation of all tangent lines having slope of -1 that are tangent to the curve y=(9)/(x+1)

fredd [130]

Answer:

$f(x)=\frac9{x+1}\\ f'(x)=-\frac9{(x+1)^2}\\ f'(x)=-1\ \iff\ -\frac9{(x+1)^2}=-1\ \to \ \frac9{(x+1)^2}=1\ \to \ (x+1)^2=9\\ |x+1|=3\ \to \ x+1=3\ \vee\ x+1=-3\\ x_1=2\ \vee\ x_2=-4\\ f(x_1)=f(2)=\frac9{2+1}=3\\ f(x_2)=f(-4)=\frac9{-4+1}=-3$
