Answer:

The y intercept is (0,-8)

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the y intercept, set x = 0 and solve for y

-4x -2y = 16

-4(0) -2y =16

-2y = 16

Divide by -2

-2y/-2 = 16/-2

y = -8

The y intercept is (0,-8)

The slope formula for y = mx + b which is known as standard form is Ax + By ≥ C

slope = A/B

x-intercept = C/A

y-intercept = C/B

and now we are dueling with y, so we will use y-intercept

-4x - 2y =16

y-intercept = C/B

y = 16/-2 = -8

y = 0,-8

Hope this helps

Does the funtion satisfy the mean value theorem on the given interval? f(x)=e^-5x, [0,2]

brilliants [131]

Yes, because it is continuous on [0,2] and differentiable on (0,2), the theorem states that there must exist some value c where a line tangent to c is parallel to the secant line through 0 and 2.
