Hi there! :) :D

Step-by-step explanation:

$SLOPE=\frac{Y_2-Y_1}{X_2-X_1}=\frac{RISE}{RUN}$

$\frac{(-5)-6}{(-5)-(-5)}=\frac{-11}{0}$

Undefined.

Therefore, the slope is -11/0

Final answer is -11/0

Hope this helps!

Thanks!

Have a nice day! :)

Melanie eats 1.5 pounds of cereal each week. Which model below best represents the number of pounds of cereal she eats in .5 wee

Katena32 [7]

For this case, the first thing we must do is define a variable.
We have then:
x: number of weeks
y: amount of cereal that Melanie eats
We now write the function that models the problem:
$y = 1.5x
$
Then, for 5 weeks we have:
$y = 1.5 (5)

y = 7.5 pounds$
Answer:
A model that best represents the number of pounds of cereal she eats is:
$y = 1.5x
$
For 5 weeks we have:
$y = 7.5 pounds$

Solve 5y'' + 3y' – 2y = 0, y(0) = 0, y'(0) = 2.8 y(t) = 0 Preview

Answer: The required solution is

$y(t)=-\dfrac{7}{3}e^{-t}+\dfrac{7}{3}e^{\frac{1}{5}t}.$

Step-by-step explanation: We are given to solve the following differential equation :

$5y^{\prime\prime}+3y^\prime-2y=0,~~~~~~~y(0)=0,~~y^\prime(0)=2.8~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(i)$

Let us consider that

$y=e^{mt}$ be an auxiliary solution of equation (i).

Then, we have

$y^prime=me^{mt},~~~~~y^{\prime\prime}=m^2e^{mt}.$

Substituting these values in equation (i), we get

$5m^2e^{mt}+3me^{mt}-2e^{mt}=0\\\\\Rightarrow (5m^2+3y-2)e^{mt}=0\\\\\Rightarrow 5m^2+3m-2=0~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~[\textup{since }e^{mt}\neq0]\\\\\Rightarrow 5m^2+5m-2m-2=0\\\\\Rightarrow 5m(m+1)-2(m+1)=0\\\\\Rightarrow (m+1)(5m-1)=0\\\\\Rightarrow m+1=0,~~~~~5m-1=0\\\\\Rightarrow m=-1,~\dfrac{1}{5}.$

So, the general solution of the given equation is

$y(t)=Ae^{-t}+Be^{\frac{1}{5}t}.$

Differentiating with respect to t, we get

$y^\prime(t)=-Ae^{-t}+\dfrac{B}{5}e^{\frac{1}{5}t}.$

According to the given conditions, we have

$y(0)=0\\\\\Rightarrow A+B=0\\\\\Rightarrow B=-A~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(ii)$

and

$y^\prime(0)=2.8\\\\\Rightarrow -A+\dfrac{B}{5}=2.8\\\\\Rightarrow -5A+B=14\\\\\Rightarrow -5A-A=14~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~[\textup{Uisng equation (ii)}]\\\\\Rightarrow -6A=14\\\\\Rightarrow A=-\dfrac{14}{6}\\\\\Rightarrow A=-\dfrac{7}{3}.$

From equation (ii), we get

$B=\dfrac{7}{3}.$

Thus, the required solution is

$y(t)=-\dfrac{7}{3}e^{-t}+\dfrac{7}{3}e^{\frac{1}{5}t}.$
