The slope of the the tangent line to a curve at a point. Calc derivative help

Mathematics
1 answer:
MrRissso [65]3 years ago

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Discussion:

The slope of the tangent to the curve y = 4x^3   is given by the first derivative.

-----------------------------------

y' = 4 (3x^2) =  12x^2

At (-3,-108), the slope is   12x^2 = 12(-3)^2 = 12*9 = 108

-----------------------------------

-----------------------------------

y = mx + b

From the first part, m = 108 so y = 108x + b.

Substituting  y = -108 when x = -3 gives

-108 =  108(-3) + b =>   add 3* 108 to both sides

-108 + 108(3) = b   =>   as 3 -1  = 2

108*2 = b = 216

y = 108x + 216

-----------------------------------

Thank you,

MrB

Y=x+2   solve for x and then reverse labels...

y-2=x so

y=x-2

If you have an old fish tank in the form of a circular cylinder and it is 2 feet in diameter and 6 feet tall, how many cubic fee
yuradex [85]

Answer:

The old fish tank hold <u>18.84 cubic feet</u> of water.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

An old fish tank in the form of a circular cylinder and it is 2 feet in diameter and 6 feet tall.

Now, to find the cubic feet of water the fish tank hold.

Dimensions of old fish tank are:

<em>Diameter is 2 feet so. we find the radius first.</em>

Radius (r) = \frac{Diameter}{2}=\frac{2}{2}=1\ feet.

Height (h) = 6\ feet.

Now, to get the cubic feet off water the tank hold we put formula:

<u><em>(Taking the value of π as 3.14.)</em></u>

Volume=\pi r^2h\\\\Volume=3.14\times 1^2\times 6\\\\Volume=3.14\times 1\times 6\\\\Volume=18.84\ cubic feet.

Therefore, the old fish tank hold 18.84 cubic feet of water.

The area of a square is 225cm². On the map drawn to scale 1 : 3 find the area of the square​
Olin [163]

Answer:

25 cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

A scale drawing is a reduced form in terms of dimensions of an original image / building / object

the scale drawing is usually reduced at a constant dimension

scale of the drawing = original dimensions / dimensions of the scale drawing

Area if a square = length²

225 =  length²

length = √225

length = 15

if the map is drawn to scale of 1 : 3

the length on the map = 15/3 = 5

area of the square 5 x 5 = 25
