Answer:
15
Step-by-step explanation:
Assume your line starts at zero, your first point is (-3,5) meaning your have a slope of 5/-3
[ f(x) = 5/-3x + b]
The only way to solve if it is equal to something
assuming that the teacher wanted you to make it equal to zero do
0=-3x^2-21x-54
remember if we can do
xy=0 then assume x and y=0
so factor
0=-3x^2-21x-54
undistribute the -3
0=-3(x^2+7x+18)
remember 0 times anything=0 so
x^2+7x+18 must equal zero
use quadratice formula which is
if you have
ax^2+bx+c=0 then
x=
x^2+7x+18
a=1
b=7
c=18
x=
x=
x=
i=√-1
x=
the zerose would be
x=
or
By "y = −9x2 − 2x" I assume you meant <span>y = −9x^2 − 2x (the "^" symbol represents exponentiation).
Let's find the first derivative of y with respect to x: dy/dx = -18x - 2. This is equivalent to the slope of the tangent line to the (parabolic) curve. Now let this derivative (slope) = 0 and solve for the critical value: -18x - 2 = 0, or
-18x = 2. Solving for x, x = -2/18, or x = -1/9.
When x = -1/9, y = -9(-1/9)^2 - 2(-1/9). This simplifies to y = -9/9 + 2/9, or
y = -7/9.
The only point at which the tangent to the curve is horiz. is (-1/9,-7/9).</span>
Answer:
x = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
6 ( x + 1 ) - 5x = 8 + 2 ( x - 1 )
6x + 6 - 5x = 8 + 2x - 2
-x = 0
x = 0
