Find the derivative of f(x) = 5 divided by x at x = -1. (1 point)

Mathematics
1 answer:
marin [14]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

  -5

Step-by-step explanation:

The power rule can be used.

  f(x) = 5x^-1

  f'(x) = 5(-1)x^(-1-1)

  f'(x) = -5x^-2

Then ...

  f'(-1) = -5(-1)^-2

  f'(-1) = -5

_____

The attached graph shows the value of the derivative at x=-1, along with a tangent line having that slope at the point (-1, f(-1)).

If 3 tan θ = 1, then find the value of sin2 θ –<br> cos2<br> θ.
vfiekz [6]

Answer:

sin2θ - cos2θ = 2sin² θ

Step-by-step explanation:

hello :

tan θ = 1    means : sinθ /cosθ   so : sinθ =cosθ

sin2θ = 2sin θ  cosθ  =2sin² θ

cos2θ = cos²θ - sin²θ = sin²θ - sin²θ =0

sin2θ - cos2θ = 2sin² θ

Find mzC.<br> B<br> (2x – 12)<br> (9x – 26)<br> (4x + 43)
MrMuchimi

Answer:

m<C = 119°

Step-by-step explanation:

Create an equation to find the value of x.

(9x - 26)° = (2x - 12)° + (4x + 43)° (exterior angle theorem of a ∆)

Solve for x

9x - 26 = 2x - 12 + 4x + 43

Add like terms

9x - 26 = 6x + 31

9x - 6x = 26 + 31

3x = 57

Divide both sides by 3

x = 19

✔️m<C = 4x + 43

Plug in the value of x

m<C = 4(19) + 43

m<C = 76 + 43

m<C = 119°

What are the basic rigid motions? *
Ostrovityanka [42]

The basic rigid motions are A) Translation, reflections and rotations

In other words, we can shift an object, mirror it over a line, or turn it, to keep the same basic size and shape of the object. The object keeps the same area and perimeter, as well as the angles and sides staying the same as well.

A transformation that isn't a rigid motion would be a dilation. A dilation enlarges or shrinks a figure, so it doesn't keep the same size (though it keeps the same shape to make the before and after figures similar).

-------------------------

A turn is also called A) rotation

A rotation needs to have information about what center point you're turning around. Often this is the origin. You'll also need the amount of rotation applied, as well as if you're going counterclockwise or clockwise.

F(n) = 65 - 4n; 29<br><br>determine which term produces the given number?​
VMariaS [17]

Answer:

9 th term

Step-by-step explanation:

Equate 65 - 4n to 29 and solve for n , that is

65 - 4n = 29 ( subtract 65 from both sides )

- 4n = - 36 ( divide both sides by - 4 )

n = 9
