Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

y = 2x + 8 ← is in slope- intercept form

with slope m = 2

Given a line with slope m then the slope of a line perpendicular to it is

m_{perpendicular} = - \frac{1}{m} = - \frac{1}{2}, thus

y = - \frac{1}{2} x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (6, - 6) into the partial equation

- 6 = - 3 + c ⇒ c = - 6 + 3 = - 3

y = - \frac{1}{2} x - 3 ← equation of line k

Find the linearization L(x) of the function at a. <br> f(x) = x3/4, a = 81
Zolol [24]

Please note that your x^3/4 is ambiguous.  Did you mean (x^3)  divided by 4
or did you mean x to the power (3/4)?  I will assume you meant the first, not the second.  Please use the "^" symbol to denote exponentiation.

If we have a function f(x) and its derivative f'(x), and a particular x value (c) at which to begin, then the linearization of the function f(x) is

f(x) approx. equal to  [f '(c)]x + f(c)].

Here a = c = 81.

Thus, the linearization of the given function at a = c = 81 is

f(x) (approx. equal to)  3(81^2)/4 + [81^3]/4

Note that f '(c) is the slope of the line and is equal to (3/4)(81^2), and f(c) is the function value at x=c, or (81^3)/4.

What is the linearization of f(x) = (x^3)/4, if c = a = 81?

It will be f(x) (approx. equal to)

Macy's offers a shirt at the price $ 100 . Then one week later, they offer the shirt at 15 % off. The shirt still doesn't sell,
lesya692 [45]

Answer:

$ 68.

Step-by-step explanation:

Original price   100

   reduce price 15% ( leaving it at 85% of original price ) = 100 * .85

         reduce it further 20%

                100 * .85 * .80  = $ 68

THIS IS THE FOURTH TIME I HAVE POSTED THIS QUESTION. I HAVE BEEN STUCK ON THIS SAME QUESTION FOR AN HOUR

So the culture banner size has length x, width x (since it is square)
The sports banner has length x+12, width x.

The area of the sports banner is length x width = x(x+12) = x²+12x.

Now, lets look at the tiles.

- The monomial, x, a factor of the expression is the width of the sports banner.

- The binomial (x+12) is the length of the spots banner (this is given!)

- The second degree term of the expression x²+12 is x², the area of the culture banner

- The first degree term of the expression x²+12x is 12x, it represents the increase in area, since the area went from x² to x²+12x
