Answer:

Tangent at (1,2) has value \frac{15}{4}. And (-2, 4) is the point of intersection of horizontal tangent.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given curve equation,

y^2=x^3+3x^2\hfill (1)

To find tangent at (x,y)=(1,2) and point of intersection of horizontal tangent, differentiate (1) withrespect to x we get,

2y\frac{dy}{dx}=x^3+3x^2

\implies \frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{3(x^2+2x)}{2y}

At (1, 2), tangent line is,

\frac{dy}{dx}|_{(1,2)}}=\frac{15}{4}

To find point of intersection of horizontal tangent we have to do,

\frac{dy}{dx}=0

\implies x(x+2)=0\implies x=0 or -2

Thus,

At x=0, y=0

but snce,

\lim_{y\to 0}\frac{dy}{dx}\to \infty

at (0,0) there exist a vertical tangent. And,

At x=-2, y=4.

Thus (-2, 4) is the point of intersection of horizontal tangent.

X - y = -2<br> y = -x - 2<br> What is the solution
LenKa [72]

Answer:

<em>x </em>= -2

<em>y </em>= 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Pretty hard process, but let me explain:

First, solve for y.

Substitute -x - 2 for y in x - y = -2:

Then, simplify both sides of the equation.

x - y = -2

x - (-x - 2) = -2

After, add -2 to both sides of the equation.

2x + 2 = -2

2x + 2 + -2 = -2 + -2

Next, divided both sides by 2.

2x/2 = -4/2

After that, substitute -2 for x in y = -x - 2:

You must simplify both sides of the equation.

y = -x - 2

y = -(-2) - 2

y = 0

Sorry if this is long and confusing, but I hope this helps!!
