Answer:

y = - 4x - 13

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Here m = - 4, thus

y = - 4x ++ c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (- 3, - 1) into the partial equation

- 1 = 12 + c ⇒ c = - 1 - 12 = - 13

y = - 4x - 13 ← equation of line

Solve using perfect square factoring patterns. y2 + 16y + 64 = 0 {8} {0, –1} {–8} {8, –8}

lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

y^2 + 16y + 64 = 0

(y + 8)(y+8) = 0

y + 8 = 0

y = -8

y + 8 = 0

y = -8

A potential energy function is given by U = A x3 + B x2 − C x + D . For positive parameters A, B, C, D this potential has two eq

Ivenika [448]

Answer:

7.8655

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the functionl

$U=Ax^3+Bx^2-cx+D$

Where,

$A=1.45J/m^3\\B=2.85J/m^2\\c= 1.7J/m\\D=0.6J$

We have, replacing,

$U=1.45x^3+2.85x^2-1.7x+0.6$

We need to derivate and verify for stable equilibrum that,

$\frac{d^2 U}{dx^2}>0$

Then,

$U'(x) = 4.32x^2+5.7x-1.7$

Roots in,

$x_1=-1.57008\\x_2=0.250636$

We obtain U"(x), then we have

$\frac{d^2U}{dx}=8.64x+5.7$

For $x=-1.57, U"(x)=-7.86549$ Unestable

For $x=0.250636 U"(x)=7.8655>0$ Stable
