Here is the solution for this specific problem:

<span>Based from the graph, the curve will intersect itself at the y-axis, i.e. x = 0. </span><span>

</span><span>t^3 - 6t = 0 </span><span>
<span>t(t^2 - 6) = 0 </span>
<span>t = 0 or t = ± √6 </span>

<span>dx/dt = 3t^2 - 6 </span>
<span>dy/dt = 2t </span>

<span>dy/dx = 2t/(3t^2 - 6) </span>

<span>@ t = 0, dy/dx = 0. </span>
<span>x = 0, y = 0 </span>

<span>y = 0 </span>

<span>@ t = √6, dy/dx = 2√6/12 = √6/6 </span>
<span>x = 0, y = 6 </span>

<span>y - 6 = (√6/6) x </span>
<span>y = (√6/6)x + 6 </span>

<span>@ t = -√6, dy/dx = -2√6/12 = -√6/6 </span>
<span>x = 0, y = 6 </span>

<span>y - 6 = (-√6/6) x </span>
y = (-√6/6)x + 6</span>

So the equations of the tangent line at the point where the curve crosses itself are: <span>y = (√6/6)x + 6 and </span>y = (-√6/6)x + 6. I am hoping that these answers have satisfied your queries and it will be able to help you in your endeavors, and if you would like, feel free to ask another question.

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

There are four giraffes that equal 32. That means the four of them equal 32, and since they are all giraffes, they are the same amount.

32/4 = 8

Girrafe = 8

Two tigers times a giraffe equals 32. We already know that a girrafe equals 8.

32/8 = 4.

Therefore the two tigers equal 4. Since there are two tigers, and they equal 4, each tiger equals 2.

Now we know girrafes equal 8, and tigers equal 2.

A girrafe - A tiger x 3 = 2

PEMDAS says that you multiply first. So 2 x 3 equals 6. Take away 6 from 8 and you get 2.

sergejj [24]

Answer:

I took them a total of 5 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

First you multiply 65 by 2 because of the first two hours

Then you subtract 130 out of 364 to get 234, those were the first two hours

The next hours you simply divide 234/78, which is 3

3 + 2 = 5 hours
