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

If one letter is chosen at random from the word refuse what is the probability that the letter chosen will be an e

mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer: 1/3

Step-by-step explanation: The probability is given by the number of times the event could happen (in this case get an "e"), over the number of all the possibilities (in this case, the six letters of the word)

Therefore, probability $\frac{letter_e}{all letter}=\frac{2}{6} =\frac{1}{3}$

Find p(-4) and p(2) for the function p(x)=11x^5-11x^4-5x^2+15x-8

egoroff_w [7]

hi,

you must replace x by the number between parenthese.

I show you with the first one and let you do the second one

p(x) = 11x^5 -11x^4 - 5x^2 +15x-8

p(-4) = 11 (-4)^5 - 11 (-4)^4 -5(-4)² +15(-4) -8

p(-4) = 11 ( -1024- 256) - 5*16 -60-8

p(-4) = 11 ( -1280) -80-60-8

p(-4) = - 14080 - 148

p(-4) = - 14 228

12 whites 4 blacks 3 blue 1 red. Find each experimental probability as a fraction? <br> 1.)p(white)

Dafna1 [17]

Experimental probability is if an experiment was actually run. If those values are the result of an experiment, then the probability is desired value (white) over total possibilities.

$\frac{12}{20} = \frac{3}{5}$ or 0.6

1. 24% of 800<br> 75% of 1000

Tom [10]

Step-by-step explanation:

24% of 800 ➡ 800 ÷ 100 × 24 = 192

75% of 1000 ➡ 1000 ÷ 100 × 75 = 750
