Answer:
An inflection point is a point on the graph of a function at which the concavity changes. Points of inflection can occur where the second derivative is zero.
Step-by-step explanation:
13 - (x+2) = 8
subtract 13 from both sides
-(x+2) = -5
divide by -1 to get rid of negative
(x+2) = 5
subtract 2 from both sides
x=3
compare the triangles ΔABC and ΔBCD
∡ABC = ∡BCD (given)
AB = CD (given)
BC = BC (common) } = > (SAS) ΔABC ≡ ΔBCD = > AC = BD
Answer:
linear
Step-by-step explanation:
From the table, we can deduct that y = 1.3x, which means it is a linear function. A linear function, when graphed, is a straight line.
Answer:
15 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
Draw a horizontal segment approximately 4 inches long. Label the right endpoint A and the left endpoint C. Label the length of AC 4.2 meters. That is the horizontal distance between the eye and the blackboard.
At the right endpoint, A, draw a vertical segment going up, approximately 1 inch tall. Label the upper point E, for eye. Label segment EA 1 meter since the eye is 1 meter above ground.
At the left endpoint of the horizontal segment, point C, draw a vertical segment going up approximately 2 inches. Label the upper point B for blackboard. Connect points E and B. Draw one more segment. From point E, draw a horizontal segment to the left until it intersects the vertical segment BC. Label the point of intersection D.
The angle of elevation you want is angle BED.
The length of segment BC is 2.1 meters. The length of segment CD is 1 meter. That means that the length of segment BD is 1.1 meters.
To find the measure of angle BED, we can use the opposite leg and the adjacent leg and the inverse tangent function.
BD = 1.1 m
DE = 4.2 m
tan <BED = opp/adj
tan <BED = 1.1/4.2
m<BED = tan^-1 (1.1/4.2)
m<BED = 15
Answer: 15 degrees
