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

emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

A=8

Step-by-step explanation:

If you use the formula 30-60-90 which is a-radical 3a-2a

since the hypotenuse is 2a it equals 16

therefore if its 2a all you need to do is divide it where then you get 8.

Answer:

521,400 meters squared

Step-by-step explanation:

With the 1cm = 100m scale

6.6 cm = 660m

7.9 cm = 790m

Area = 660 x 790 = 521,400 meters squared

No, it is not a function, since 6 is repeating itself and the x should never repeat if it’s a function.
