Answer:

c=-1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Y=2x+c=2(x+c/2), so m=2.

To be tangent we need to check y’ of parabola: y’=2x+3.

So for some x it must be 2x+3=2 (cause m=2). We have x=-1/2.

Now we use x=-1/2 to find y from 2nd equation (equation of parabole): we got y=1/4-3/2=-5/4.

So tangent has point (-1/2,-5/4).

Put that point in firts equation (equation of line): -5/4=-1+c,

so we have c=-1/4.

Evaluate the following expression when b = -4 , -4.5b=
Elza [17]

Answer:

18

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is asking you to evaluate -4.5b, which is a simplified way of saying

-4.5 * b

Since we know that b = -4, we can insert that instead of b.

-4.5 * -4

The two negatives cancel each other out, so you're left with

4.5 * 4 = 18
