A line with a slope of -7 passes through the points (u,0) and (8,-7) what is the value of u?

Answer:

u = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the slope intercept formula:

\frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1}  = slope

Substitute our values from the points and the known slope:

\frac{-7 - 0}{8 - u} = -7

Now we multiply both sides by (8 - u) to isolate the x:

(8-u) x \frac{-7}{8 - u} = -7 (8 - u)

Next we add 56 to both sides:

-7 = -56 + 7u

Finish off by dividing both sides by 7:

7u = 49

u = 7

1. What is the slope of the line tangent to the curve defined by y2 + xy - x2 = 11x at the point (2, 3)?
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Step-by-step explanation:

By using Implicit Differentiation,

d/dx (y² + xy - x²) = d/dx (11x)

d/dx (y²) + d/dx (xy) - d/dx (x²) = 11

2y * dy/dx + x * dy/dx + y - 2x = 11

dy/dx (2y + x) = 11 + 2x - y

dy/dx = (11 + 2x - y) / (2y + x).

At the point (2, 3), we have x = 2, y = 3.

=> dy/dx = (11 + 2(2) - (3)) / (2(3) + (2))

= 12 / 8 = 1.5.

P.S. Your question is weird because (2,3) is not on the graph, let me know what is the correct question thanks!

There is no solution.
If you graph both equations they never touch.
