What is the function rule for the line
Sindrei [870]
It’s b. Because the number with out the x is the y-interact which is -2 then to find the other number I look at the graph and find another point and then count the rise/run which is rising 2 running 3 and it’s also positive that’s why it’s b.

In order to clear out room for new merchandise, James decided to mark down some of the items for sale in his electronics store.

Lets day the original price of the dvd player was $100,
36% marked down means you pay $64x
64x = $41.60
100x = 100/54 x 41.60 = 4160/64 = #65.00 = original cost
similarly, stereo tuners = 100/78 x 69.42 = 6942/78 = $89 original cost
DVD = 65- 41.60 = $ 23. 40 less 
Stereo = 89- 69.42 = $ 19.58 less
Diffrence is $ 3.82
so your answer is the dvd player price was reduced by $3.82 more than the stereo tuner.

If a rectangle has an area of x^2+x-20 and a width of x-4, what is the length?
Mrac [35]

Answer:

This (x - 5) represents the length of the rectangle.

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the area of a rectangle of length L and width W is A = L * W.

Here, the width is x - 4 and the area is x^2 + x - 20.  Dividing the width (x - 4) into the area results in an expression for the length:

x - 4  /   x^2 + x - 20

Let's use synthetic division here.  It's a little faster than long division.

If the divisor in long division is x - 4, we know immediately that the divisor in synthetic division is 4:

4   /   1    1    -20

              4     20

    --------------------

         1     5     0

This synthetic division results in a remainder of 0.  This tells us that 4 (or the corresponding (x - 4) is indeed a root of the polynomial x^2 + x - 20, and so *(x - 4) is a factor.  From the coefficients 1 and 5 we can construct the other factor:  (x - 5).  This (x - 5) represents the length of the rectangle.

Find the point on the parabola y^2 = 4x that is closest to the point (2, 8).
guapka [62]

Answer:

(4, 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

There are a couple of ways to go at this:

  1. Write an expression for the distance from a point on the parabola to the given point, then differentiate that and set the derivative to zero.
  2. Find the equation of a normal line to the parabola that goes through the given point.

1. The distance formula tells us for some point (x, y) on the parabola, the distance d satisfies ...

... d² = (x -2)² +(y -8)² . . . . . . . the y in this equation is a function of x

Differentiating with respect to x and setting dd/dx=0, we have ...

... 2d(dd/dx) = 0 = 2(x -2) +2(y -8)(dy/dx)

We can factor 2 from this to get

... 0 = x -2 +(y -8)(dy/dx)

Differentiating the parabola's equation, we find ...

... 2y(dy/dx) = 4

... dy/dx = 2/y

Substituting for x (=y²/4) and dy/dx into our derivative equation above, we get

... 0 = y²/4 -2 +(y -8)(2/y) = y²/4 -16/y

... 64 = y³ . . . . . . multiply by 4y, add 64

... 4 = y . . . . . . . . cube root

... y²/4 = 16/4 = x = 4

_____

2. The derivative above tells us the slope at point (x, y) on the parabola is ...

... dy/dx = 2/y

Then the slope of the normal line at that point is ...

... -1/(dy/dx) = -y/2

The normal line through the point (2, 8) will have equation (in point-slope form) ...

... y - 8 = (-y/2)(x -2)

Substituting for x using the equation of the parabola, we get

... y - 8 = (-y/2)(y²/4 -2)

Multiplying by 8 gives ...

... 8y -64 = -y³ +8y

... y³ = 64 . . . . subtract 8y, multiply by -1

... y = 4 . . . . . . cube root

... x = y²/4 = 4

The point on the parabola that is closest to the point (2, 8) is (4, 4).
