Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the fish population in a certain part of the ocean (in thousands of fish) as a function of the water's temperature (in degrees celsius) is modeled by: p(x)=-2(x-9)^2+200.

To find maximum number of fish, we use derivative test

p(x)=-2(x-9)^2+200\\p'(x) =4(x-9)\\p"(x)=4>0

Since second derivative is positive,

there will not be any maximum but only minimum

2(x-9) =0x=9

Minimum when x=9 and minimum population

p(x) =200

Maximum when x -infinity

The maximum number of fish is going to be p(9) = 200

What is the slope of the line whose equation is y−4=5/2(x−2)?
postnew [5]

Answer:

m=\dfrac{5}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

If the equation of the line is

y=mx+b,

then m represents the slope of the line and b represents the y-intercept of the line. This equation is called the equation of the line in the slope form.

Rewrite the equation of the line in the slope form

y-4=\dfrac{5}{2}(x-2)\\ \\y-4=\dfrac{5}{2}x-\dfrac{5}{2}\cdot 2\\ \\y-4=\dfrac{5}{2}x-5\\ \\y=\dfrac{5}{2}x-1

Thus, the slope of the line is

m=\dfrac{5}{2}

PLS HELP ASAP THANKS ILL GIVE BRAINLKEST PLS THANKS PLS
kirill [66]
The answer should be (6,-1)

Explanation:

Focus on point A since it's asking for that. Then, shift it down vertically -8.

This means you are shifting A down 8 units.

Then they ask for a reflection across the y-axis. The y-axis is the vertical line in the middle, so to do this transformation, just change the x-value of where A is to the opposite.

A, B, and C are collinear, and B is between A and C. The ratio of AB to AC is 1:2 If A is at (6,3) and B is at (-1,2), what are
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

The coordinates of C is (-8,1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Looking at the attached image, you'd see that, AB is 1 and BC is 1, that's because we are told that ratio of AB to AC is 1:2 meaning, AC is 2 and AB is 1. Therefore for that ratio to be satisfied BC has to be 1 so that AC would be 2.

Now let's assume the coordinates of C is (x,y).

To get it's coordinates, we use the section formula:

(x,y)= (\frac{mx + nx_{1}}{m + n} , \frac{my + ny_{1}}{m + n})

Where (m,n) is the (AB, BC)

Therefore we have

(-1,2) = (\frac{1\times x + 1\times6}{1 + 1} , \frac{1\times y + 1\times3}{1 + 1})

This gives:

(-1,2) = (\frac{x + 6}{2} , \frac{y + 3}{2})

-1 =( \frac{x + 6}{2} and 2 = \frac{y + 3}{2})

From there x = -8 and y = 1

Therefore the coordinates of C is (-8, 1).
