To find the value of n we have 2 substitute (n, -2) to equation
-2 =1/2 n |.2
n = -4

We have a line passing through 3 points. We can use the first
two points to find the equation of the line.
(6,3), (8,4)

slope m = (4-3)/(8-6) = 1/2

We can use the point slope form y-y1 = m(x-x1) or
the slope intercept form y = mx + b
to find the equation of the line.

Let's take the point (6,3) and use y = mx + b to find b
y = 3, x = 6, m = 1/2

3 = (1/2)(6) + b
3 = 3 + b
0 = b

The equation of our line is y = (1/2)x

We have a line of equation y = (1/2)x going through point (n,-2)

Plugging in we have: -2 = (1/2)n
2(-2) = n
-4 = n

Your answer is n = -4

NOTE: looking at the 3 points as given initially: (6,3), (8,4), (n,-2)
We can see that 3 = (1/2)6 and 4 = (1/2)8 so -2 = (1/2)n makes sense

Hope this helps you :)

Find the function of which is the solution of 36y"-48y'-48y=0 with initial conditions y1(0)=1. y1'(0)=0

lilavasa [31]

Answer:

$y=\frac{1}{4} e^{2x}+\frac{3}{4} e^{-\frac{2}{3}x }$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let, $D=\frac{d}{dx}$

Now, us simplify the given differential equation and write it in terms of D,

$36y''-48y'-48y=0$

or, $3y''-4y'-4y=0$

or, $(3D^2-4D-4)y=0$

We have our auxiliary equation:

$3D^2-4D-4=0$

or, $(3D+2)(D-2)=0$

or, $D=2, - \frac{2}{3}$

Therefore our solution is,

$y=Ae^{2x}+Be^{- \frac{2}{3}x}$

and, $y'=2Ae^{2x}-\frac{2}{3}Be^{\frac{2}{3}x }$

Applying the boundary conditions, we get,

$A+B=1$

$2A-\frac{2}{3}B=0$

Solving them gives us,

$A=\frac{1}{4} ,B=\frac{3}{4}$

Hence,

$y=\frac{1}{4} e^{2x}+\frac{3}{4} e^{-\frac{2}{3}x }$

The base change property can help in what type of scenarios? HELP ME!!!!!

Mekhanik [1.2K]

<h3>Base Change Property</h3><h3 />

The Base Change Property is very helpful in scenarios related to simplifying equations where the logarithmic terms have a varying base.

So to solve an equation, which possesses logarithmic functions, all logarithmic terms must have a similar base.

<h3>What is Base Change Property?</h3><h3 />

This refers to the base formula which is used to write a logarithm of a number with a base that is fixed as the ratio of two logarithms both having the same base but different from the base of the initial or original logarithm.

Change of Base Formula is given as:

$log_{b} a = \frac{Log_{c} a }{Log_{c} b}$
