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.

Solve for f. Show your work! 8=f-(13-2)
Nana76 [90]

Answer:

So F=19

Step-by-step explanation:

8=f-(13-2)

8=f-11

+11  +11       You plus 11 by both sides

19=f

You can check you answer by plugging it in

8=19-(13-2)

your answer would still be 19

Equilateral triangle ABC has a perimeter of 96 millimeters. A perpendicular bisector is drawn from angle A to side Line segment
prisoha [69]

Answer:

<h2>A  16mm</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

An equilateral triangle is a triangle that has all of its sides equal.

Perimeter of an equilaterial triangle = 3s where;

s is one side of the triangle.

Given the perimeter of ABC = 96mm

Substituting into the formula above to get s;

96 = 3s

s = 96/3

s = 32mm

Hence the length of one side of the triangle is 32mm

If a perpendicular bisector is drawn from angle A to side Line segment B C at point M, then MC will be half of BC and ΔAMC will be a right angled triangle.

Since all the sides of the triangle are equal, hence BC = 32mm. Since MC is the half of BC, then MC = 1/2 of 32mm

MC = 1/2 * 32mm

MC = 16mm

<em>Hence the length of Line segment MC is 16mm</em>

<em></em>
