Answer:

D). Y = 4x -6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's get the gradient of line MN

Gradient= (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

Gradient=( 6-3)/(-7-5)

Gradient= 3/-12

Gradient= -1/4

For a line to be perpendicular to line MN , it gradient multiplied with line MN gradient will be equal to -1

MM'= -1

M = gradient of line MN

M' = gradient of the unknown line

MM'= -1

-1/4M'= -1

M' =( -1*4)/-1

M' = 4

So the line will have a gradient of 4

That is, the equation well be in the form of

Y= 4x +c

Where c can be a positive or negative intercept or constant.

The correct option is

D). Y = 4x -6

Find the common differrence of the arithmectic sequence 6,9.4,12.8,16.2

defon

Common difference r will be the difference between next two values of number row, so we take e.g. second minus first: r=9.4-6=3.4. You can see, that this value is constant as we go through next pairs of values.

A function is given. Determine the average rate of change of the function between the given values of the variable: f(x)= 4x^2;

nevsk [136]

$\bf slope = {{ m}}= \cfrac{rise}{run} \implies 
\cfrac{{{ f(x_2)}}-{{ f(x_1)}}}{{{ x_2}}-{{ x_1}}}\impliedby 
\begin{array}{llll}
average\ rate\\
of\ change
\end{array}\\\\
-------------------------------$

$\bf f(x)= 4x^2 \qquad 
\begin{cases}
x_1=3\\
x_2=3+h
\end{cases}\implies \cfrac{f(3+h)-f(3)}{(3+h)~-~(3)}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{[4(3+h)^2]~~-~~[4(3)^2]}{\underline{3}+h-\underline{3}}\implies \cfrac{4(3^2+6h+h^2)~~-~~4(9)}{h}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{4(9+6h+h^2)~~-~~36}{h}\implies \cfrac{\underline{36}+24h+4h^2~~\underline{-~~36}}{h}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{24h+4h^2}{h}\implies \cfrac{\underline{h}(24+4h)}{\underline{h}}\implies 24+4h$

Find tan theta if theta is an angle in standard position and the point with coordinates (4,3) lies on the terminal side of the a

Karolina [17]

Answer: 0.75

Step-by-step explanation:

We can do this by drawing a terminal side in a standard position and then drawing the associated triangle. We then use the Pythagoras theorem to find the missing side the hypotenuse. Then, this will give a Pythagorean Triplet of 3, 4 and 5.

We now have a triangle with the values of:

x = 4

y =3

h^2= 4^2 + 3^2

h^2 = 16 + 9

h^2 = 25

h = 5

Tangent = opposite/adjacent

= y/x

= 3/4

= 0.75
