Find the line that is normal to the parabola at the given point
remember that normal means perpendicular
perpendicular lines have slopes that multiply to -1
we can use point slope form to write the equation of the line since we are given the point (1,0)
we just need the slope
take derivitive
y'=1-2x
at x=1
y'=1-2(1)
y'=1-2
y'=-1
the slope is -1
the perpendicular of that slope is what number we can multiply to get -1
-1 times what=-1?
what=1
duh
so
point (1,0) and slope 1
y-0=1(x-1)
y=x-1 is da equation
solve for where y=x-1 and y=x-x² intersect
set equatl to each other since equal y
x-1=x-x²
x²-1=0
factor difference of 2 perfect squares
(x-1)(x+1)=0
set to zero
x-1=0
x=1
we got this point already
x+1=0
x=-1
sub back
y=-1-(-1)²
y=-1-(1)
y=-1-1
y=-2
it intersects at (-1,-2)
The question did not spesify the stating value for n.
Assuming, n = 0 is the starting value.
1st term is when n = 0:
f(0) = (0)^2 - 5 = 0 - 5 = -5
2nd term: f(1) = (1)^2 - 5 = 1 - 5 = -4
3rd term: f(2) = (2)^2 - 5 = 4 - 5 = -1
4th term: f(3) = (3)^2 - 5 = 9 - 5 = 4
Therefore, the first 4 terms are: -5, -4, -1, 4.
Answer:
The total change in the altitude is 58.3
Step-by-step explanation:
-42.9 + -15.4 = 58.3
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The absolute value function prevents the expression from being a polynomial. The degree of 3 in y^3 is an odd number so that polynomial function will not be even.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
An equilateral triangle has three equal sides and three equal interior angles (the measure of each interior angle is equal to 60 degrees)
see the attached figure to better understand tyhe problem
Let
h ----> the height of an equilateral triangle
b ---> the length side of an equilateral triangle
In the right triangle ABD
Applying the Pythagorean Theorem

substitute the given values

square root both sides
