Answer: y = -2x + 8

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the equation of the line , we will use the formula:

\frac{y_{2}- y_{1}}{x_{2}- x_{1}} = \frac{y-y_{1}}{x - x_{1}}

From the question

x_{1} = 1

x_{2} = 3

y_{1} = 6

y_{2} = 2

substituting into the formula , we have

\frac{2 - 6}{3 - 1} = \frac{y - 6}{x - 1}

\frac{-4}{2} = \frac{y - 6}{x - 1}

cross multiplying , we have

2(y-6) = -4(x-1)

Expanding , we have

2y - 12 = -4x + 4

Adding 12 to both sides , we have

2y = -4x + 16

dividing through by 2 , we have

y = -2x + 8

Therefore , the equation of the line is given as

y = -2x + 8

Find the general solution for the differential equation \displaystyle{\left.{d}{y}\right.}+{9}{x}\ {\left.{d}{x}\right.}={0}dy+9
densk [106]

Answer:

y= CC-4.5x^2

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the general solution to the differential equation

dy + 9x dx = 0, we employ the method of separating variable as follows:

Note: { will represent the integral sign here.

Separating the variables and integrating, we have

{dy  = -{9x dx

y = -(9/2)(x^2) + CC,

where CC is the given constant of integration.

This can be rearranged/simplified to yield

y= CC-4.5x^2

INCREDIBLY URGENT!!
Gemiola [76]

Answer:

When you see a formula like this, try to operate, so you will see some identities sooner or later. In this case, we have a substraction identity:

\frac{cos ( \alpha  -  \beta )}{cos  \alpha cos  \beta }  =  \frac{cos   \alpha cos  \beta + sin \alpha sin  \beta }{cos  \alpha cos  \beta }  = 1 + tan α · tan β
