Answer:

The coordinates of the point on the line segment between A (3 , -5) and B (13 , -15) given that the point is 4/5 of the way from A to B would be:  (11 , -13)

Step-by-step explanation:

As the line segment has the points:

  • A(3, -5)
  • B(13, -15)

Let (x, y) be the point located on the line segment which is 4/5 of the way from A to B.

Using the formula

x=\frac{x_{1}m_{2}+x_{2}m_{1}}{m_{1}+m_{2}}

y=\frac{y_{1}m_{2}+y_{2}m_{1}}{m_{1}+m_{2}}

Here, the point (x , y) divides the line segment having end points (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) in the ratio m₁ : m₂ from the point (x₁, y₁).

As (x, y) be the point located on the line segment which is 4/5 of the way from A to B, meaning the distance from A to (x , y) is 4 units, and  the

distance from (x , y) to B is 1 unit, as 5 - 4 = 1.

Thus

m : n = 4 : 1

so

<u>Finding x-coordinate:</u>

x=\frac{x_{1}m_{2}+x_{2}m_{1}}{m_{1}+m_{2}}

x=\frac{\left(3\right)\left(1\right)+\left(13\right)\left(4\right)}{4+1}

\mathrm{Remove\:parentheses}:\quad \left(a\right)=a

x=\frac{3\cdot \:1+13\cdot \:4}{4+1}

x=\frac{55}{4+1}         ∵ 3\cdot \:1+13\cdot \:4=55

x=\frac{55}{5}

\mathrm{Divide\:the\:numbers:}\:\frac{55}{5}=11

x=11

<u></u>

<u>Finding y-coordinate:</u>

y=\frac{y_{1}m_{2}+y_{2}m_{1}}{m_{1}+m_{2}}

y=\frac{\left(-5\right)\left(1\right)+\left(-15\right)\left(4\right)}{4+1}

\mathrm{Remove\:parentheses}:\quad \left(a\right)=a

y=\frac{-5\cdot \:\:1-15\cdot \:\:4}{4+1}

  =\frac{-65}{4+1}            ∵ -5\cdot \:1-15\cdot \:4=-65

  =\frac{-65}{5}

\mathrm{Apply\:the\:fraction\:rule}:\quad \frac{-a}{b}=-\frac{a}{b}

y=-\frac{65}{5}

y=-13

so

  • The x-coordinate = 11
  • The y-coordinate = -13

Therefore, the coordinates of the point on the line segment between A (3 , -5) and B (13 , -15) given that the point is 4/5 of the way from A to B would be:  (11 , -13)

Find the maximum and minimum values of f(x,y) = 8x+y for the polygonal convex set having vertices at (0, 0), (4, 0), (3, 5), (0,
Helen [10]
F(x,y)=8x+y

This means, f is a function where we plug in pairs of numbers.
then, f calculates the first number times 8, to which it then adds the second number we plugged.

let's calculate f for the vertices:

f(0,0)=8*0+0=0+0=0

f(4, 0)=8*4+0=32+0=32

f(3, 5)=8*3+5=24+5=29

f(0, 5)=8*0+5=0+5=5

the maximum value of f is 32
the minimum value of f is 0

Please answer/do 3-7!! Whoever does it right, i will give brainlest! :) also, PLEASE FILL IT OUT EITHER ON PAPER/ PHONE etc. !!!
meriva

Answer:

3-7 is negitive 4 in your answer it's 3-7 = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

It's negitive four because if you subtract you will get 4 but since it's other way around. And if you do It, it will say that even if there is no negitive sign it won't change the problem because it's still the same problem.

1) 3 - 7

2) there are 3 ways to do this to get the answer:

1) 3/7

2) 7 + 3 - 4 + 3

3) now 7 + 3 is ten - 7 is 3 + 4 is 7, so then if you do 3 - 7 you get negitive four

4) now check your answer by subtracting 3 and 7

5) then you get -4

btw: ( hope this helped :) )

Find the taylor polynomial t3(x) for the function f centered at the number
inysia [295]

Answer:

t_3(x)=\frac{7\pi}{4}+\frac{7}{2}(x-1)-\frac{7}{4}(x-1)^2+\frac{7}{12}(x-1)^3

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

f(x)=7tan^{-1}(x)

a=1

T_n(x)=\sum_{r=0}^{n}\frac{f^r(a)(x-a)^r}{r!}

Substitute n=3 and a=1

t_3(x)=f(1)+f'(1)(x-1)+\frac{f''(1)(x-1)^2}{2!}+\frac{f'''(1)(x-1)^3}{3!}

f(x)=7tan^{-1}(x)

f(1)=7tan^{-1}(1)=7\times \frac{\pi}{4}=\frac{7\pi}{4}

Where tan^{-1}(1)=\frac{\pi}{4}

f'(x)=\frac{7}{1+x^2}

Using the formula

\frac{d(tan^{-1}(x))}{dx}=\frac{1}{1+x^2}

f'(1)=\frac{7}{2}

f''(x)=\frac{-14x}{(1+x^2)^2}

f''(1)=-\frac{7}{2}

f''(x)=-14x(x^2+1)^{-2}

f'''(x)=-14((x^2+1)^{-2}-4x^2(x^2+1)^{-3}})

By using the formula

(uv)'=u'v+v'u

f'''(x)=-14(\frac{x^2+1-4x^2}{(1+x^2)^3}

f'''(x)=(-14)\frac{-3x^2+1}{(1+x^2)^3}

f'''(1)=-14(\frac{-3(1)+1}{2^3})=\frac{7}{2}

Substitute the values

t_3(x)=\frac{7\pi}{4}+\frac{7}{2}(x-1)-\frac{7}{4}(x-1)^2+\frac{7}{2\times 3\times 2\times 1}(x-1)^3

t_3(x)=\frac{7\pi}{4}+\frac{7}{2}(x-1)-\frac{7}{4}(x-1)^2+\frac{7}{12}(x-1)^3
