find expressions for the slope and x- and y-intercept for ax+by=c where a b and c are nonzero integer

1 answer:

7 0

The x intercept is when y=0, in this case ax=c =>x=c/a
the y intercept is when x=0, in this case by=c =>y=c/b
the slope: by=-ax+c =>y=(-a/b)x+(c/b), so the slope is -a/b, the y intercept is c/b, which matches the answer in the second line.

2^sinx+2^cosx find the minimum value of this trignometry

Anit [1.1K]

Take the deritiivive
$ln(2)cos(x)2^{sin(x)}-ln(2)sin(x)2^{cos(x)}$
it is zero at pi/4 and it repeats at every pi
minimum at where slope goesfrom negative to positive
so at 5pi/4 and 13pi/4 so at every 2pi interval

evaluate origial at 5pi/4
$2^{sin(5pi/4)}+2^{cos(5pi/4)}$ =
$(2^ \frac{- \sqrt{2} }{2} )+(2^ \frac{- \sqrt{2} }{2} )$ =
$2(2^ \frac{- \sqrt{2} }{2} )$ or aprox 1.22509
