Answer:

When you reflect a point across the line y = x, the x-coordinate and y-coordinate change places. If you reflect over the line y = -x, the x-coordinate and y-coordinate change places and are negated (the signs are changed).

Solve the initial value problem:

dy
——— = 2xy², y = 2, when x = – 1.
dx

Separate the variables in the equation above:

$\mathsf{\dfrac{dy}{y^2}=2x\,dx}\\\\
\mathsf{y^{-2}\,dy=2x\,dx}$

Integrate both sides:

$\mathsf{\displaystyle\int\!y^{-2}\,dy=\int\!2x\,dx}\\\\\\
\mathsf{\dfrac{y^{-2+1}}{-2+1}=2\cdot \dfrac{x^{1+1}}{1+1}+C_1}\\\\\\
\mathsf{\dfrac{y^{-1}}{-1}=\diagup\hspace{-7}2\cdot \dfrac{x^2}{\diagup\hspace{-7}2}+C_1}\\\\\\
\mathsf{-\,\dfrac{1}{y}=x^2+C_1}$

$\mathsf{\dfrac{1}{y}=-(x^2+C_1)}$

Take the reciprocal of both sides, and then you have

$\mathsf{y=-\,\dfrac{1}{x^2+C_1}\qquad\qquad where~C_1~is~a~constant\qquad (i)}$

In order to find the value of C₁ , just plug in the equation above those known values for x and y, then solve it for C₁:

y = 2, when x = – 1. So,

$\mathsf{2=-\,\dfrac{1}{1^2+C_1}}\\\\\\
\mathsf{2=-\,\dfrac{1}{1+C_1}}\\\\\\
\mathsf{-\,\dfrac{1}{2}=1+C_1}\\\\\\
\mathsf{-\,\dfrac{1}{2}-1=C_1}\\\\\\
\mathsf{-\,\dfrac{1}{2}-\dfrac{2}{2}=C_1}$

$\mathsf{C_1=-\,\dfrac{3}{2}}$

Substitute that for C₁ into (i), and you have

$\mathsf{y=-\,\dfrac{1}{x^2-\frac{3}{2}}}\\\\\\
\mathsf{y=-\,\dfrac{1}{x^2-\frac{3}{2}}\cdot \dfrac{2}{2}}\\\\\\
\mathsf{y=-\,\dfrac{2}{2x^2-3}}$

So y(– 2) is

$\mathsf{y\big|_{x=-2}=-\,\dfrac{2}{2\cdot (-2)^2-3}}\\\\\\
\mathsf{y\big|_{x=-2}=-\,\dfrac{2}{2\cdot 4-3}}\\\\\\
\mathsf{y\big|_{x=-2}=-\,\dfrac{2}{8-3}}\\\\\\
\mathsf{y\big|_{x=-2}=-\,\dfrac{2}{5}}\quad\longleftarrow\quad\textsf{this is the answer.}$

I hope this helps. =)

PLEASE HELP ANSWER THIS QUESTION I DON'T KNOW IT AT ALL

Answer:

Is y = 4x - 7 a linear function?
Is y = 6x² - 1 a linear function?
Is y = $\frac{1}{2x}$ + 10 a linear function?

Step-by-step explanation:

Yes it is - when you graph this equation, it results in a [straight] line, signalling that it is a linear function.
No it's not - when you graph this equation, it results in a v- kinda shape on the graph. Linear functions are [straight] lines on a graph, and this line wasn't straight. In fact, this wasn't even a line.
No it's not - when you graph this equation, it results in a bend at the origin. The line on the graph is not straight, so this is not a linear equation.

For the graphs -
