Answer:

A. (–8, 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

(1)       y =  ½x + 6  

(2)       y = -¾x –  4     Set (1) = (2)  

½x +   6 = -¾x –  4     Multiply each side by 4

2x  + 24 = -3x – 16     Add 16 to each side

2x  + 40 = -3x              Subtract 2x from each side  

        40 = -5x              Divide each side by -5

(3)       x = -8                 Substitute (2) into (1)

          y = ½(-8)  +6

             = -4 + 6

             =  2

The solution to the system of equations is (-8 ,2).

You can see the graphs of the two functions in the figure below. The two lines intersect at (-8, 2).

Check:

2 = ½(-8) + 6     2 = -¾(-8) - 4

2 = -4 +6           2 = 6 - 4

2 = 2                 2 = 2

What is m∠M ? Brainliest to correct answer &lt;3
nika2105 [10]

Sum of interior angles of triangle = 180

x + x + 6 + 3x - 16 = 180

5x - 10 = 180

5x = 190

x = 38

<M = 3(38) - 16

<M = 114 - 16

<M = 98°

In Exploration 5.4.2 Question 2, what conclusion can you make about the value of the derivative at
givi [52]

The value of the derivative at the maximum or minimum for a continuous function must be zero.

<h3>What happens with the derivative at the maximum of minimum?</h3>

So, remember that the derivative at a given value gives the slope of a tangent line to the curve at that point.

Now, also remember that maximums or minimums are points where the behavior of the curve changes (it stops going up and starts going down or things like that).

If you draw the tangent line to these points, you will see that you end with horizontal lines. And the slope of a horizontal line is zero.

So we conclude that the value of the derivative at the maximum or minimum for a continuous function must be zero.

Triangle A B C is shown. Angle B C A is a right angle. The length of hypotenuse A B is 26, the length of A C is 10, and the leng
ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

<h2>The right option is twelve-fifths</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a right angle triangle ABC as shown in the diagram. If ∠BCA = 90°, the hypotenuse AB = 26, AC = 10 and BC = 24.

Using the SOH, CAH, TOA trigonometry identity, SInce we are to find tanA, we will use TOA. According to TOA;

Tan (A) = opp/adj

Taken BC as opposite side since it is facing angle A directly and AC as the adjacent;

tan(A) = BC/AC

tan(A) = 24/10

tan(A) = 12/5

The right option is therefore twelve-fifths
