Answer:

4x = 32. Where x = number Alex and 3x - 1 is the number caught by Johnny.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of fish that Alex caught be x.

Then the number of fish Johnny caught is

3x - 1.

So 3x - 1 + x = 31

4x = 32.

Put this equation into slope- intercept form. -2x + 3y = 9

AveGali [126]

Answer:

y = 2/3x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to put it in slope intercept form (y = mx + b), y needs to be isolated.

Add 2x to both sides:

-2x + 3y = 9

3y = 2x + 9

Then, divide both sides of the equation by 3.

3y = 2x + 9

y = 2/3x + 3 is the equation in slope intercept form

Limit definition for slope of the graph, equation of tangent line point for<br> f(x)=2x^2 at x=(-1)

Tems11 [23]

The slope of the tangent line to $f$ at $x=-1$ is given by the derivative of $f$ at that point:

$f'(-1)=\displaystyle\lim_{x\to-1}\frac{f(x)-f(-1)}{x-(-1)}=\lim_{x\to-1}\frac{2x^2-2}{x+1}$

Factorize the numerator:

$2x^2-2=2(x^2-1)=2(x-1)(x+1)$

We have $x$ approaching -1; in particular, this means $x\neq-1$ , so that

$\dfrac{2x^2-2}{x+1}=\dfrac{2(x-1)(x+1)}{x+1}=2(x-1)$

Then

$f'(-1)=\displaystyle\lim_{x\to-1}\frac{2x^2-2}{x+1}=\lim_{x\to-1}2(x-1)=2(-1-1)=-4$

and the tangent line's equation is

$y-f(-1)=f'(-1)(x-(-1))\implies y-4x-2$
