What is the equation in point−slope form of the line passing through (−2, −5) and (2, 3)?

8 0

Hi,

m = (y-y₀)/(x-x₀)
m = (-5-3)/(-2-2)
m = -8/-4
m = 2

For point (2,3) ⇒ x₀ = 2 and y₀ = 3

y-y₀ = m(x-x₀)
y-3 = 2(x-2)

For point (-2,-5) ⇒ x = -2 and y = -5

-5-3 = 2(-2-2)
-8 = 2(-4)
-8 = -8 ⇒ True

Answer:

C. The equation is y-3 = 2(x-2)

Y is a differentiable function of x. Choose the alternative that is the derivative dy / dx.

murzikaleks [220]

Differentiating both sides of

$x^3-y^3=1$

with respect to x yields (using the chain rule)

$3x^2 - 3y^2 \dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx} = 0$

Solve for dy/dx :

$3x^2 - 3y^2 \dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx} = 0 \\\\ 3y^2\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx} = 3x^2 \\\\ \dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx} = \dfrac{3x^2}{3y^2} = \dfrac{x^2}{y^2}$

The answer is then D.

Explanation:

f(x) = 4x + 8 || g(x) = x² + x

fg( -5 )

go from right to left in such function problems.

replace x with [ -5 ]

f( (-5)² -5)

f(20)

[ replace x with 20 ]
