Answer:

a=-6

b=-\frac{31}{6}

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the equation of the curve:

y=2x^{3}+bx-5 (1)

And the equation of the line that is normal (perpendicular to that curve) in the point (x,y)=(1,2):

y=\frac{a}{5}x+\frac{16}{5} (2)

Note this equation has the form y=mx+B, where m=\frac{a}{5} is the slope of the line that es normal to the curve and B=\frac{16}{5} the intersection of that line with the y-axis.

Well, let’s begin by finding the slope of the line that is tangent to the curve by differentiating the equation (1):

\frac{dy}{dx}=6x^{2}+b (3)

Then, we have to evaluate that when x=1 (remember we are given the point (1,2)):

\frac{dy}{dx}_{x=1}=6(1)^{2}+b=6+b (4) This is the slope of the line that is tangent to the curve

And the slope of the line that is perpendicular to that tangent line is its negative reciprocal. Hence:

m=-\frac{1}{6+b} (5) This is the slope of the line normal to the curve

Then:  

m=\frac{a}{5}=-\frac{1}{6+b}

a=\-frac{5}{6+b} (6)

Rewritting (2):

y=-\frac{5}{5(6+b)}x+\frac{16}{5} (7)

Evaluating in the point (1,2):

2=-\frac{5}{5(6+b)}1+\frac{16}{5} (8)

Finding b:

b=-\frac{31}{6} (9) This is the value of b

Substituting (9) in (6):

a=\-frac{5}{6-\frac{31}{6}} (10)

a=\-frac{31}{6} (11) This is the value of a

A square tile has an area of 75 square inches. Which is the BEST estimate for the length of one side of the tile
hodyreva [135]
The area of a square is the length of a side squared ( Area= Side^2)

when the area is known take the square root of the area to find the length of the side:
Side = sqrt(area)

Side = sqrt(75)
 side = 8.7

the length is between 8 and 10
 the answer is B

Answer:

here (edit I made a mistake)

Step-by-step explanation:

9) y=\frac{3}{5} x +5

10) y = x - 3

11)  y=-\frac{3}{5} x - 3

12) y=\frac{5}{4} x + 2

these are the slop int forms, my bad...

sorry
