When a line and a curve are tangent to each other, they are joined together by 1 point (x,y). So, you equate both equations either in terms of x or y. For this problem, let's equate in terms of y.

y = k - x
y = x² + 3x + 1

k - x = x² + 3x + 1
k = x² + 3x + x + 1
k = x² + 4x + 1

This would be the value of k. Since we are not given the common point, it can only be expressed in terms of x or y.

If f(x)=x^2+3x+4 which of the number choices represents (f(x+h)-f(x))/h?
Helen [10]

In case you're not already aware, the expression \frac{f(x+h)-f(x)}h is called the "difference quotient" and represents the average rate of change of a function f over an interval [x,x+h].

For the function f(x)=x^2+3x+4, by substituting x+h we get

f(x+h)=(x+h)^2+3(x+h)+4=(x^2+2xh+h^2)+(3x+3h)+4=x^2+3x+4+(2x+3)h+h^2

Then the difference quotient is

\dfrac{f(x+h)-f(x)}h=\dfrac{(x^2+3x+4+(2x+3)h+h^2)-(x^2+3x+4)}h

=\dfrac{(2x+3)h+h^2}h=2x+3+h

where the last equality holds as long as h\neq0.

Solve y=15(9860)+6997 step by step please!! I'm Stupid :(
puteri [66]
I would probably distribute 15 with the parentheses 15x 9860 which is 147,900 then you would add 6997+147,900
Y= 154187
