Answer:

$a>\frac7{10}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{2a-1}4+\frac{a-1}3>0\ \ \ \ \ |\cdot 12\\ 12\cdot\frac{2a-1}4+12\cdot\frac{a-1}3>12\cdot0\\ 3(2a-1)+4(a-1)>0\\ 6a-3+4a-4>0\\ 10a-7>0\\ 10a>7\ \ \ \ |:10\\ a>\frac7{10}$

Find the equation of the tangent line to g(x) = 4x² + 6x at x = 0 <br> Simplify any fractions

Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

y = 6x

To find equation,

1) Find Derivative

2) Find the slope at x

3) Find coordinates

<h3><u>Lets first Derive The Equation</u></h3>

$\sf \rightarrow y = 4x^2 + 6x$

$\sf \rightarrow \dfrac{dy}{dx} = (2)4x^{2-1} + (1)6x^{1-1}$

$\sf \rightarrow \dfrac{dy}{dx} = 8x + 6$

<u>Secondly find Slope at x = 0</u>

$\sf \rightarrow \dfrac{dy}{dx} = 8(0) + 6$

$\sf \rightarrow \dfrac{dy}{dx} = 6$ Yep so the slope(m) is 6.

Recall, tangent line has the same slope.

<u>Now third step is to find coordinates</u>

At x = 0, y = 4x² + 6x ⇒ y = 4(0)² + 6(0) = 0 $\star$ so coordinates: (0, 0)

Equation:

y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)

y - 0 = 6(x -0)

y = 6x
