Answer:

k = 11.

Step-by-step explanation:

y = x^2 - 5x + k

dy/dx = 2x - 5 = the slope of the tangent to the curve

The slope of the normal = -1/(2x - 5)

The line  3y + x =25 is normal to the curve so finding its slope:

3y = 25 - x

y = -1/3 x + 25/3 <------- Slope is -1/3

So at the point of intersection with the curve, if the line is normal to the curve:

-1/3 = -1 / (2x - 5)

2x - 5 = 3  giving x = 4.

Substituting for x in y = x^2 - 5x + k:

When x = 4, y =  (4)^2 - 5*4 + k  

y = 16 - 20 + k

so y = k - 4.

From the equation y = -1/3 x + 25/3,  at x = 4

y = (-1/3)*4 + 25/3 = 21/3 = 7.

So y = k - 4 = 7

k = 7 + 4 = 11.

Y=3×+7 y=×-9 what is the solution of the equation
Aneli [31]

Since both equations are equal to y you can just make them equal to each other, like this 3x + 7 = x - 9. From there isolate the varible x on one side so that the solution will be on the other side of the equation. I'll do the steps too for you.

3x + 7 = x - 9

2x + 7 = -9

2x = -16

x = -8

Hope this helps :)

Ryan planted 125 trees on my tree farm 28% of rum or maple trees and the rest of them are pine trees. Kioshi helped plant 125 tr
VashaNatasha [74]

Answer:

Ryan planted more maple trees than Kioshi.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Total number of tress planted by Ryan = 125

Percent of maples tree planted by Ryan = 28%

Total number of tress planted by Kioshi = 125

We need to find who planted more maple trees.

Solution:

First we will find the number of maple tree planted by Ryan.

So we can say that;

the number of maple tree planted by Ryan is equal to Percent of maples tree planted by Ryan multiplied by Total number of tress planted by Ryan and then divided by 100.

framing in equation form we get;

the number of maple tree planted by Ryan = \frac{28}{100}\times 125 = 35

Hence Ryan planted 35 maple trees on the tree farm.

Now we will find number of maple tree planted by Kioshi.

But Given:

or every maple trees there are four pine trees

Let the number of maple tree planted by Kioshi be 'x'.

Number of pine trees = 4x

Now we know that;

Total number of tress planted by Kioshi is equal to sum of Number of pine trees and number of maple tree.

framing in equation form we get;

x+4x=125\\\\5x=125

Dividing both side by 5 we get;

\frac{5x}{5}=\frac{125}{5}\\\\x=25

Hence Kioshi planted 25 maple trees in the park.

So we can say that.

Ryan planted more maple trees than Kioshi.
