Answer:
 A ( -2 , 9 )
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Idea:</u> You find the first derivative of f(x), and then set it equal to the desired slope. You'll find some x. That we will use to find the point.
 f'(x) = 3x^2 + 12x + 20
f'(x) = 8
3x^2 + 12x + 20 = 8
3x^2 + 12x + 12 = 0
3 ( x^2 + 4x + 4 ) = 0
3 ( x + 2 )^2 = 0
x + 2 = 0
x = -2
So, the desired point is:
A ( -2, f(-2) ) --> A ( -2 , 9 )
 
        
             
        
        
        
Answer: The perimeter is 30ft.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's define:
L = length of the longer side.
S = length of the shorter side.
P = perimeter
we know that for a common rectangle:
P = 2*S + 2*L
We aso know that:
L = 2ft + (1/3)*P
S = (1/10)*P
L = S + 9ft.
So we have a system, let's find the perimeter only using this system (So i will ignore the equation for the perimeter of a rectangle)
First, we can replace the third equation in the first equation, now we have a system with only two equations:
S + 9ft = 2ft + (1/3)*P
S = P/10
Now we can replace the second equation in the first equation, and get:
P/10 + 9ft = 2ft + P/3
Now let's solve this for P.
9ft - 2 ft = P/3 - P/10
7ft = P( 1/3 - 1/10) = P*( 10/30 - 3/30) = P*(7/30)
(30/7)*7ft = P = 30ft.
The perimeter is 30ft.
