I'm thinking of a number. When I multiply by 8 and add –1, I get –17. What's my number?

Say that you're thinking of number x

You multiply it by 8, and have 8x

You add -1 (i.e., you subtract 1) and have 8x-1

This equals -17, so you have

8x-1=-17

Add 1 to both sides

8x=-16

Divide both sides by 8:

x=-2

So, you were thinking of -2.

Determine the equation of the tangent to x− 3x +1 at the point (3,1)
wariber [46]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  y = 3x -8

Step-by-step explanation:

We assume you want the tangent to the parabola y = x² -3x +1 at the given point. The slope is found using the derivative of the function at that point.

  y' = 2x -3

At x=3, the slope is ...

  y' = 2(3) -3 = 3

The equation of the line through point (3, 1) with a slope of 3 is ...

  y -1 = 3(x -3) . . . .  use the point-slope form of the equation for a line

  y = 3x -9 +1 . . . . . eliminate parentheses, add 1

  y = 3x -8
