Passing through (-6,-1) and parallel to y=-2/3x +1

Hello!

To find the line parallel to the line y = -2/3x + 1 and passing through the point (-6, -1), we will need to know that if two lines are parallel, then their slopes are equivalent to each other.

Since we are given the slope, we need to find the y-intercept of the line. We can find the y-intercept by substituting the point (-6, -1) into a new equation with the slope of m = -2/3. Remember that slope-intercept form is y = mx + b.

y = -2/3x + b (substitute the ordered pair)

-1 = -2/3(-6) + b

-1 = 4 + b (subtract 4 from both sides)

-5 = b

Therefore, the equation of the line passing through the point (-6, -1) and parallel to y = -2/3x + 1 is y = -2/3x - 5.

Answer:

Isosceles, obtuse triangle

Step-by-step explanation:

The triangle is isosceles since there are equal acute-angles which therefore prove two equal sides.

The triangle is obtuse because it consists of one obtuse angle which is 98 and is greater than 90 degrees.

Hope this helps!!! PLZ MARK BRAINLIEST!!!

WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST: What is the local minimum value of the function g(x)=x^4-5x^2+4? (Round answer to the nearest hundredth)
IrinaK [193]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

you can find where the first derivative is 0 to find the critical points

g'(x) = ( x^4 -5x^2 +4)' = 4x³-10x

g'(x) =0, make y =0 to find find where g'(x) is 0

4x³-10x =0 , factor 2x

2x(2x²-5)= 0 , each factor must be 0

2x= 0, so x= 0

2x²-5 =0, so x = ±√5/2

we now have 3 critical points -√5/2, 0, and √5/2

make intervals (-∞, -√5/2), (-√5/2, 0) , (0, √5/2) and (√5/2, +∞)

pick a point to test on each interval: -2, -1, 1 and 2 for example, and

calculate g'(x) = 4x³-10x at those points

for x= -2 we have 4(-2)³-10(-2) = -12 , negative number, decrease

for x= -1 we have 4(-1)³-10(-1) =6, positive number, increase

for x= 1 we have 4(1)³-10(1) = -6, negative number, decrease

for x= 2 we have 4(2)³-10(2) = 12, positive number, increase

we went from a decrease to an increase on intervals (-∞, -√5/2), (-√5/2, 0) so x= - √5/2 ≈ -1.58 is a minimum

we went from a decrease to an increase on intervals (0, √5/2), (√5/2, +∞) so

x= √5/2 ≈ 1.58 is a minimum as well
