The curve with equation y=ax^2+bx has a gradient of 3 at the point (2,-2). Find the values of a and b.
Airida [17]

Answer:

a = 2, b = - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

y = ax² + bx

\frac{dy}{dx} is the measure of the slope at x = a

Differentiate each term with respect to x using the power rule

\frac{d}{dx}(ax^{n} ) = nax^{n-1}

\frac{dy}{dx} = 2ax + b, hence

2ax + b = 3 at (2, - 2)

Substitute x = 2 into \frac{dy}{dx}

4a + b = 3 → (1) and substitute x = 2 into y

4a + 2b = - 2 → (2)

Subtract ( 1) from (2)

b = - 2 - 3 = - 5

Substitute b = - 5 into (1)

4a - 5 = 3 ( add 5 to both sides )

4a = 8 ( divide both sides by 4 )

a = 2

Solve the equation cot 2x + cot x =3
rusak2 [61]

tan2x*cotx - 3 = 0

We know that: tan2x = sin2x/cos2x and cotx = cosx/sinx

==> sin2x/cos2x *cosx/sinx = 3

Now we know that sin2x = 2sinx*cosx

==> 2sinxcosx/cos2x * cosx/sinx = 3

Reduce sinx:

==> 2cos^2 x/ cos2x = 3

Now we know that cos2x = 2cos^2 x-1

==> 2cos^2 x/(2cos^2 x -1) = 3

==> 2cos^2 x = 3(2cos^2 x -1)

==> 2cos^2 x = 6cos^2 x - 3

==> -4cos^2 x= -3

==> 4cos^2 x = 3

==> cos^2 x = 3/4

==> cosx = +-sqrt3/ 2

<span>==> x = pi/6, 5pi/6, 7pi/6, and 11pi/6</span>
