The answer to Part A is 2 15/32
Answer:
x = 1.2
y = 6.6
Step-by-step explanation:
1) y= -2x+9
2) 8x-3=y
Substitute y in equation 1 using y in equation 2.
8x - 3 = -2x + 9
+ 3 on both sides
8x = -2x + 12
+ 2x on both sides
10x = 12
x = 1.2
To find y, plug in x
8x - 3 = y
9.6 - 3 = y
6.6 = y
Hope this helps :)
The slope will be -1/2. If you put it into slope intercept form of y=mx+b, mx will always be the slope.
Answer:
the slope of the tangent line at (40, f(40))the slope of the tangent line at (15, f(15)) the slope of the tangent line at (10, f(10))the slope of the line segment from (10, f(10)) to (40, f(40))
