A. The term "units" refers to the measurements in the original question or problem. When looking at the question, the units we are measuring are dollars/feet.
B. In this case, the f'(x) means we are looking for the cost (in dollars) to drill the next foot down.
C. Since the cost increases the more feet we drill down, the sign of f'(x) is positive.
Answer:
x = 28
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that lines AB and CD are straight lines that intersects at O, it follows that the pair of opposite vertical angles formed are congruent.
Thus,
<AOD = <BOC
<AOD = 152°
<BOC = 3x + x + (x + 12) (angle addition postulate)
<BOC = 5x + 12
Since <AOD = <BOC, therefore,
152° = 5x + 12 (substitution)
152 - 12 = 5x (subtraction property of equality)
140 = 5x
140/5 = x (division property of equality)
28 = x
x = 28
Assuming you meant 2/3
y=2/3x+1 and (-5,-2)
paralell means same slope
y=mx+b
m=slope
y=2/3x+1
sllope=2/3
point slope
y-y1=m(x-x1)
for slope=m
a point is (x1,y1)
slope=2/3
point=(-5,-2)
y-(-2)=2/3(x-(-5))
y+2=2/3(x+5)
or
y=2/3x+16/3
