A triangle has one side that measures 12, another side that measures x, and a third side that measures 4 less than x. The perime

ter is 26. Which equation would we use to find the value of x?
x + x + 4 + 12 = 26
x + x - 4 + 12 = 26
x + x - 4 = 26
x + x + 4 = 26

Perimeter = sum of all 3 sides in a triangle
so
x + x - 4 + 12= 26
answer
B. <span>x + x - 4 + 12 = 26</span>

Find an equation of the tangent line to the hyperbola y = 3/x at the point (3, 1).

Vesna [10]

Let's find the derivative of that hyperbola in order to find a slope formula to help us with this equation. We already have an x and y value. The derivative is found this way: $y'= \frac{x(0)-3(1)}{x^2}$ so $y'=- \frac{3}{x^2}$ . The derivative supplies us with the slope formula we need to write the equation. Sub in the x value of 3 to find what the slope is: $y'=- \frac{3}{3^2}=- \frac{3}{9}=- \frac{1}{3}$ . So in our slope-intercept equation, x = 3, y = 1, and m = -1/3. Use these values to solve for b. $1=- \frac{1}{3}(3)+b$ so b = 2. The equation, then, for the line tangent to that hyperbola at that given point is $y=- \frac{1}{3}x+2$
