Find an equation for the line tangent to the curve at the point defined by the given value of t.​ Also, find the value of d^2y /

dx^2 at this point.

The tangent line has slope \frac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}, which we can find using the chain rule:

\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}=\dfrac{\frac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dt}}{\frac{\mathrm dx}{\mathrm dt}}

We have

x(t)=3t^2+7\implies\dfrac{\mathrm dx}{\mathrm dt}=6t

y(t)=t^6\implies\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dt}=6t^5

so that

\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}=\dfrac{6t^5}{6t}=t^4

When t=-1, the tangent line has slope 1.

To compute the second derivative \frac{\mathrm d^2y}{\mathrm dx^2}, first notice that the first derivative \frac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx} turns out to be a function of t. Denote this first derivative by f(t). Then by the chain rule, we find

\dfrac{\mathrm d^2y}{\mathrm dx^2}=\dfrac{\mathrm df}{\mathrm dx}=\dfrac{\frac{\mathrm df}{\mathrm dt}}{\frac{\mathrm dx}{\mathrm dt}}=\dfrac{4t^3}{6t}=\dfrac23t^2

and at t=1, we get a value of 2/3.

andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

70 decreases each stage

Step-by-step explanation:

350 / 5 = 70 decreases each stage

Since all decreases are equal and in 5 stages:

decreases * stages = total decreases

                     70 * 5 = 350

A student wants to find point C on the directed line segment from A to B on a number line such that the segment is partitioned i
olganol [36]

Answer:

<u>Point C at (-18/7)</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Point A is at -6 and point B is at 2.

So, the distance between A and B = 2 - (-6) = 8

point C on the directed line segment from A to B on a number line such that the segment is partitioned in a ratio of 3:4.

Let the distance AC = x

∴ BC = 8 - x

AC : CB = 3 : 4

∴\frac{AC}{CB} =\frac{3}{4} = \frac{x}{8-x}

Using cross multiplication

3 (8-x) = 4x

24 - 3x = 4x

24 = 7x

x = 24/7

So, Point C = -6 + 24/7 = -18/7

Point C at (-18/7)
