Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

x2−6x+5=0

Step 1: Factor left side of equation.

(x−1)(x−5)=0

Step 2: Set factors equal to 0.

x−1=0 or x−5=0

x=1 or x=5

For the function P(x) = x3 − 9x, at the point (2, −10), find the following. (a) the slope of the tangent to the curve (b) the in

Shalnov [3]

Answer:

3, in both a), b)

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The slope of the line tangent to the curve that passes through the point (2,-10) is equal to the derivative of p at x=2.

Using differentiation rules (power rule and sum rule), the derivative of p(x) for any x is $p'(x)=3x^2-9$ . In particular, the value we are looking for is $p'(2)=3(2^2)-9=12-9=3$ .

If you would like to compute the equation of the tangent line, we can use the point-slope equation to get $y=3(x-2)-10=3x-16$

b) The instantaneus rate of change is also equal to the derivative of P at the point x=2, that is, P'(2). This is equal to $p'(2)=3$ .

Answer:

2(L+W) = 34

L + W = 17

L*W = 52

L = 2W+5

2L + 2W = 34

L - 2W = 5

--------------- add

3L = 39

L = 13
