10x-2y=10 We need to solve this equation for "y" to put it into slope intercept form:
10x-2y=10
-2y = -10x +10 Subtracted 10x from both sides
y = 5x - 5 Divided both sides by -2
y = 5x - 5 Is slope intercept form
In algebra it is fully possible for x to equal to zero. After you have 2x, just divide both sides by two, so it would be 2 divided by 0 and than you would have x=0 and that would be your final answer.
2x + 1 = 4x +1
-2x +1 = 1
-2x = 0
divide by -2
x=0
Answer:
y(-4) = 5
y'(-4) = -7
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi!
Since the tangent line T and the curve y must coincide at x=-4
y(-4) = T(-4) = 5
On the other hand, the derivative of the curve evaluated at -4 y'(x=-4) must be the slope of the tangent line. Which inspecting the tangent line T(x) is -7
That is:
y'(-4) = -7
The answer you want is x = -30
