Answer:

Correct answer: First x = 15 h and second y = 5 h

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem we will form a system of two equations with two variables:

Let be the time of the first mechanic x  and of the second y

x + y = 20  ⇒ y = 20 - x

85 x + 80 y = 1675

85 x + 80 (20 - x) = 1675

85 x + 1600 - 80 x = 1675

5 x = 1675 - 1600

5 x = 75

x = 75 / 5 = 15 h

x = 15 h

y = 20 - 15 = 5 h

y = 5 h

A curve has the equation y = x^3 + 3x^2 − 16x + 2. a) Find an equation of the tangent to the curve at the point P (2, −10). Ive
Vesnalui [34]
The equation of the tangent to the curve at the point P(2, -10) is:
y = 8x - 26
f(x)=x^{3}+3x^{2}-16x
f'(x)=3x^{2}+6x-16
f'(2)=12+12-16=8
We need to find the coordinates of point Q where the slope of the tangent to the curve f(x) must also be 8.
f'(x)=3x^{2}+6x-16=8
Now we have a quadratic:
3x^{2}+6x-16-8=0
which simplifies to:
x^{2}+2x-8=0
which factorizes to:(x + 4)(x - 2) = 0
Therefore x = -4, 2.
f(-4) = 48
Therefore the coordinates of Q are (-4, 48).
