For each curve, plug in the given point (x,y) and check if the equality holds. For example:

(I) (2, 3) does lie on x^2+xy-y^2=1 since 2^2 + 2*3 - 3^2 = 4 + 6 - 9 = 1.

For part (a), compute the derivative \frac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}, and evaluate it for the given point (x,y). This is the slope of the tangent line at the point. For example:

(I) The derivative is

x^2+xy-y^2=1\overset{\frac{\mathrm d}{\mathrm dx}}{\implies}2x+x\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}+y-2y\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}=0\implies\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}=\dfrac{2x+y}{2y-x}

so the slope of the tangent at (2, 3) is

\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}(2,3)=\dfrac74

and its equation is then

y-3=\dfrac74(x-2)\implies y=\dfrac74x-\dfrac12

For part (b), recall that normal lines are perpendicular to tangent lines, so their slopes are negative reciprocals of the slopes of the tangents, -\frac1{\frac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}}. For example:

(I) The tangent has slope 7/4, so the normal has slope -4/7. Then the normal line has equation

y-3=-\dfrac47(x-2)\implies y=-\dfrac47x+\dfrac{29}7

horsena [70]

Answer: x < 38

Step-by-step explanation: Raymond has less money than Martin but you don’t know how much. So you use the less than sign to show that it’s less than 38 dollars

Can anyone explain how to do this? I looked at the book and now I'm even more confused. 50 points

The piecewise function is basically the result of two different functions combined together. If x is 0 or larger, then h(x) = x+4. Otherwise, if x < 0, then h(x) = -x-4

No matter what number you pick for x, the h(x) function will be used in some way. So the domain is the set of all real numbers. To write this in interval notation, we write (-\infty, \infty) which means we start off at negative infinity and go to positive infinity. This is basically saying "the entire real number line". Since we can't actually reach either infinity, we always use parenthesis with them. <u>Never</u> use square brackets with either infinity

From the graph (see attached image below), we see that (0,-4) is the lowest point. This means y = -4 is the smallest y output possible, though we can't actually reach it because of the open circle at (0,-4). We can get any other larger y value. So the range is therefore: (-4, \infty) meaning we start at -4 and head off to positive infinity. The curve parenthesis next to -4 the reader "exclude -4 as part of the range". There is an open hole or gap here. Another way to state the range is to write y > -4
