Answer:

It touches the x-axis once, but does not intersect it

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm assuming it's supposed to be y = x² + 10x + 25. This equation does not intersect the x-axis, but it does touch the x-axis.

Solve the equation for x...

0 = x² + 10x + 25

factor...

0 = (x + 5)(x + 5)

The solution repeats, this means that the function touches the x-axis and then bounces off, but doesn't intersect it. Intersect meant to cross the line, here it just touches it.

The circumference of a circle is 15 centimeters. What is the diameter? Round to the nearest hundredths place.

lesya692 [45]

Answer:

4.77

Step-by-step explanation:

because Circumference can be found with this equation

C = 2piR

we need to plug in 15 for Circumference and solve for its radius or R.

15 = 2piR

15/2pi = R

but we need diameter which is 2R so we just need to multiply the answer by 2.

15/2pi × 2 = Diameter

15/pi = D

approximately = 4.77

If x=at^3 and y=bt^2 then find dy/dx

Molodets [167]

Dy/dx = (dy/dt) / (dx/dt)

dy/dt = 2bt

dx/dt = 3at^2

therefore dy/dx = 2bt/3at^2
dy/dx = 2b/3at
