Mathematics
1 answer:
Gnesinka [82]3 years ago

Answer:

At (-2,0) gradient is -4 ; At (2,0) gradient is 4

Step-by-step explanation:

For this problem, we simply need to take the derivative of the function and evaluate when y = 0 (when crossing the x-axis).

y = x^2 - 4

y' = 2x

The function y = x^2 - 4 cross the x-axis when:

y = x^2 - 4

0 = x^2 - 4

4 = x^2

2 +/- = x

Hence, this curve crosses the x-axis twice, once at (-2,0) and again at (2,0).

The gradient at these points are as follows:

y' = 2(-2) = -4

y' = 2(2) = 4

Cheers.

I need someone to explain how to solve this please!
Paladinen [302]

(x+3)/2x+5 + (3x-5)/(3x+5)

LCM = ( 2x+5)( 3x+5)

[( x+3)( 3x+5) + ( 3x -5)( 2x+5)]/( 2x+5)( 3x+5)

= (3x^2 + 5x +9 x +15 + 6x^2 + 15x -10x -25)/( 2x+5)( 3x+5)

=( 9 x^2 + 19x -10)/( 2x +5)(3x+5)
