Answer:

m = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

-2m = -10

Divide both sides by -2.

-2/-2 m = -10/-2

m = 5

Answer:m=5

Step-by-step explanation:

First you’ll have to divide both of the sides by -2

-2m=-10

-2m/-2=-10/-2

M=5

-10 divided by -2 is 5

Hope that helps :D

Find the x-coordinate of the point on the graph of y=x^2 where the tangent line is parallel to the secant line that cuts the cur

jek_recluse [69]

First find the secant line. The slope of the secant line through $(-1,1)$ (when $x=-1$ ) and $(2,4)$ (when $x=2$ ) is the average rate of change of $y=x^2$ over the interval $[-1,2]$ :

$\text{slope}_{\text{secant}}=\dfrac{2^2-(-1)^2}{2-(-1)}=\dfrac33=1$

The tangent line to $y=x^2$ will have a slope determined by the derivative:

$y=x^2\implies y'=2x$

Both the secant and tangent will have the same slope when $2x=1$ , or when $x=\dfrac12$ .
