The instantaneous rate of increase of f(x) at $x_{0} = 3$ is 3.
One possible equation of this line is y = 3x - 16.
The line is tangent to the graph of y = f(x). The slope of the line is the same as the instantaneous rate of increase of f(x) at $x_{0} = 3$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

$\begin{aligned}&\lim_{h\to 0}{\frac{f(3+h)-f(h)}{h}}\\ =&\lim_{h\to 0}\frac{1}{h} \cdot [(3^{3} + 3 \times 3^{2}h +3\times 3h^{2} + h^{3})- 4(3^{2} + 2\times 3h + h^{2}) + 2 \\[-1em] &\phantom{\lim_{h\to 0}\frac{1}{h}\cdot []} -(3^{3} -4\times 3^{2} + 2)]\\ = &\lim_{h \to 0}\frac{h^{3} + 5h^{2} +3h}{h}\\=& \lim_{h \to 0}{h^{2}} + \lim_{h \to 0}{5h} + \lim_{h\to 0}{3}\\ =& 3\end{aligned}$ .

$f(3) = 3^{3} - 4\times 3^{2} + 2 =-7$ .

In other words, the graph of y = f(x) passes through the point (3, -7) where $x = 3$ .

The point-slope form of a line in a cartesian plane is:

$y - y_0 = m (x - x_0)$ .

For this line,

$(3, -7)$ is the point on the line, while

$3$ is the slope of the line.

The equation of this line will thus be

$y - (-7) = 3(x - 3)$ .

That's equivalent to

$y = 3x - 16$ .

Refer to the diagram attached. The line touches the graph of y = f(x) at x = 3 without crossing it. The line here is thus a tangent to the graph of y = f(x) at x = 3. The slope of the line represents the instantaneous rate of increase of f(x) at $x_{0} = 3$ .

Jolie uses 2 tomatoes every day to prepare her salad. If n equals the number of tomatoes Jolie had before she made her salad and

Tpy6a [65]

The answer is c = n - 2

n - the number of tomatoes before the salad is made
c - the number of tomatoes after the salad is made

<span>Jolie uses 2 tomatoes (n - 2) every day to prepare her salad and then c tomatoes remained: n - 2 = c
</span>Or:
c = n - 2

Can someone plzz help am stuck

navik [9.2K]

It is only asking for the 3/4 length buttons
There are 3 of them

Lining them up means adding them together

3/4 + 3/4 + 3/4 = 9/4, or 2 1/4

2 1/4 should be your answer

hope this helps

Answer:

What is 0.42857142857 as a fraction?

To write 0.42857142857 as a fraction you have to write 0.42857142857 as numerator and put 1 as the denominator. Now you multiply numerator and denominator by 10 as long as you get in numerator the whole number.

0.42857142857 = 0.42857142857/1 = 4.2857142857/10 = 42.857142857/100 = 428.57142857/1000 = 4285.7142857/10000 = 42857.142857/100000 = 428571.42857/1000000 = 4285714.2857/10000000 = 42857142.857/100000000 = 428571428.57/1000000000 = 4285714285.7/10000000000 = 42857142857/100000000000

And finally we have:

0.42857142857 as a fraction equals 42857142857/100000000000
