What is the slope of the tangent line through (3,2) and (x,y) for x=-2 and y=x3

1 answer:

3 0

First you must derive the equation to find the slope:
y = x ^ 3
y '= 3x ^ 2
Then, for x = -2 we have the slope is:
y '(- 2) = 3 (-2) ^ 2 = 12
Then the equation of the line with slope equal to 12 and passing through point (3,2) is:
y = 12 (x-3) +2

The graph h = −16t^2 + 25t + 5 models the height and time of a ball that was thrown off of a building where h is the height in f

Answer:

part 1) 0.78 seconds

part 2) 1.74 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

At about what time did the ball reach the maximum?

Let

h ----> the height of a ball in feet

t ---> the time in seconds

we have

$h(t)=-16t^{2}+25t+5$

This is a vertical parabola open downward (the leading coefficient is negative)

The vertex represent a maximum

The x-coordinate of the vertex represent the time when the ball reach the maximum

Find the vertex

Convert the equation in vertex form

Factor -16

$h(t)=-16(t^{2}-\frac{25}{16}t)+5$

Complete the square

$h(t)=-16(t^{2}-\frac{25}{16}t+\frac{625}{1,024})+5+\frac{625}{64}$

$h(t)=-16(t^{2}-\frac{25}{16}t+\frac{625}{1,024})+\frac{945}{64}\\h(t)=-16(t^{2}-\frac{25}{16}t+\frac{625}{1,024})+\frac{945}{64}$

Rewrite as perfect squares

$h(t)=-16(t-\frac{25}{32})^{2}+\frac{945}{64}$

The vertex is the point $(\frac{25}{32},\frac{945}{64})$

therefore

The time when the ball reach the maximum is 25/32 sec or 0.78 sec

step 2

At about what time did the ball reach the minimum?

we know that

The ball reach the minimum when the the ball reach the ground (h=0)

For h=0

$0=-16(t-\frac{25}{32})^{2}+\frac{945}{64}$

$16(t-\frac{25}{32})^{2}=\frac{945}{64}$

$(t-\frac{25}{32})^{2}=\frac{945}{1,024}$

square root both sides

$(t-\frac{25}{32})=\pm\frac{\sqrt{945}}{32}$

$t=\pm\frac{\sqrt{945}}{32}+\frac{25}{32}$

the positive value is

$t=\frac{\sqrt{945}}{32}+\frac{25}{32}=1.74\ sec$

The base of a rectangular prism is 5.4 centimeters long and 4.9 centimeters wide. It is 3.8 centimeters tall. What is the volume

lorasvet [3.4K]

So, We Need To Examine The Problem. So, We Know That We Need To Find The Volume Of A Rectangular Prism. We Also Know That The Dimensions Are 4.9 • 3.8 • 5.4.
So, We Need To Remember The Formula For Volume Of A Rectangular Prism.
V = B • W • H
So, we need to plug in the known values.
V = 4.9 • 3.8<span> • 5.4.
So, Lets Solve.
4.9 • 3.8 = 18.62
18.62 * 5.4 = 100.548 cm²
Now We Have:
V = 100.548cm²
It Rounds To 100.5cm²</span>
