The solution to your problem is as follows:

The tangent line passes through (4,-6), so x = 4 when y = -6 

=> f(4) = -6 

The tangent line will have a constant gradient. 

gradient is m = (-6 - 9)/(4 - 10) => 5/2

Equation is y - 9 = (5/2)(x - 10) 

=> y - 9 = (5/2)(x-10) 

<span>i.e. y = (5/2)(x-10) + 9 
</span>      y = (5/2)x - 25 + 9 =   y = (5/2)x - 16

Now, f '(x) = dy/dx = 5/2

so, f '(4) = 5/2....i.e. gradient is 5/2 whatever the value of x. 


I hope my answer has come to your help. Thank you for posting your question here in Brainly.

You need to convert the second equation to slope/intercept form. The first equation is in that form already. Then you can compare  slopes.

-6x + 8y = 14
8y = 6x + 14
y = (3/4)x + 14/8

SO THE SLOPE IS 3/4 which is the same as slope of equation 1

Therfore they are parallel.

Determine whether A = B, ACB, BCA, ACB, BCA, or if none of these applies.
spin [16.1K]

The relation between A and B subset is A⊆B

What is Subsets?

A set "X" is said to be the subset of "Y" is each elements of X is present in Y and is denoted by X⊆Y.

It should be noted that In roster notation, the use of the {" and "} character indicates that a set of numbers is a collection of elements, which can either be a finite or infinite collection.

Thus in the given question :

A={summer, autumn, spring, winter}

B={summer, winter}

"summer" and "winter" elements of B which is common and also presents in A therefore, B is subset of A and is denoted as A⊆B.

Answer:

-4 and 4

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Method 1</u>

Apply Difference of Two Squares Formula: a^2-b^2=(a+b)(a-b)

Given  x^2-16=0

Rewrite 16 as 4²

Therefore, a^2=x^2 and b^2=4^2

\implies a = \sqrt{x^2}=x

\implies b=\sqrt{4^2} =4

\implies x^2-16^2=(x+4)(x-4)

\implies (x+4)(x-4)=0

\implies (x+4)=0 \implies x=-4

\implies (x-4)=0 \implies x=4

<u>Method 2</u>

Given equation:

x^2-16=0

Add 16 to both sides:

\implies x^2-16+16=0 + 16

\implies x^2=16

Square root both sides:

\implies \sqrt{x^2}=\sqrt{16}

\implies x=\pm4

Therefore, x = -4, x = 4
