Answer:

12,354 leaves

Step-by-step explanation:

Leaves fallen from a maple tree = \sum_{n=0}^{6}  = 384(\frac{3}{2} )^{n}

At the end of 7 weeks

= 384 + 384(1.5) + 384(1.5)² + 384(1.5)³ + 384(1.5)⁴ + 384(1.5)⁵ + 384(1.5)⁶

= 12,354 leaves

12,354 leaves fell from the tree.

Find an equation of the tangent line to the graph of
lakkis [162]

Answer:

y + 4 = -3 (x - 5)

In other words,

y = -3 x + 11

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of the tangent line to y = g(x) at x = 5 is the same as the value of g'(x). g'(5) = 3. Therefore, 3 will be the slope of the tangent line.

The tangent line goes through the point of tangency (5, g(5)). g(5) = -4. Therefore, the tangent line passes through the point (5, -4).

Apply the slope-point form of the line. The equation for a line with slope <em>m</em> that goes through point (a, b) will be y - b = m(x - a). For the tangent line in this question,

  • m = 3,
  • a = 5, and
  • b = -4.

What will be the equation of this line?

Write the equation of the line that has a slope of -2 and goes through the point (-3,4).
liubo4ka [24]

<u>SOLUTION:</u>

General Equation: y = mx + b

.

Substitute slope = -2 into the equation:

y = -2x + b

.

Find the y-intercept:

4 = -2(-3) + b

4 = 6 + b

b = -2

.

Substitute b = -2 into the equation:

y = -2x - 2

.

Answer: y = -2x - 2
