Isolate the x. Note the equal sign. What you do to one side, you do to the other.

Multiply 4 to both sides

x/4(4) = -5(4)

x = -5(4)

x = -20

-20 is your answer for x

hope this helps

-5 x 4 = -20 therefore -20/4 = -5

5. Write the slope-intercept form of the equation that passes through the point (-1, 2) and is perpendicular to the line y = 3/2

kap26 [50]

Answer:

D. y = -2/3 x + 4/3

Step-by-step explanation:

When you have a perpendicular line, everything except the y-intercept becomes opposite. So 3/2x + 6 will become -2/3x.

To find the slope, you have to plug the coordinates into the equation so far which is y = -2/3x + b

y = -2/3x + b

2 = -2/3(-1) + b

2 = 2/3 + b

4/3 = b

So the equation is y = -2/3 x + 4/3.

Find the number c that satisfies the conclusion of the Mean Value Theorem on the given interval. (Enter your answers as a comma-

coldgirl [10]

Answer:

c is all the points in the open interval (0,25)

Step-by-step explanation:

Here given is a function

$f(x) =x$ , which is continuous in the interval [0,25] and differentiable in (0,25)

Mean value theorem says there exists at least one c in the interval (0,25) such that

$f'(c) = \frac{f(25)-f(0)}{25-0}$

We have

$f(25)=25 and f(0) = 0\\f'(c) = 1$

For the given function

$f'(x) =1$

Hence we have c equals all the points in the open interval (0,25)

Find the inflection point of the function of f(x) = x³ -6x² +12x

Wewaii [24]

Points of inflections are zeroes of the second derivative. We have:

$f(x)=x^3-6x^2+12x\implies f'(x)=3x^2-12x\implies f''(x)=6x-12$

So, the second derivative equals zero if and only if

$f''(x)=0\iff 6x-12=0 \iff 6x=12 \iff x=2$

So, this is the only point of inflection of this function.
