Determine point A:

y(x)=\frac{10}{2x+1}-2\\\frac{10}{2x+1}-2=0\implies x=2

so A(2,0)

Find the function for the tangent:

\frac{dy}{dx}=-\frac{-20}{(2x+1)^2}

the tangent function is a line

y=ax + b = \frac{dy}{dx}|_A\cdot x + b\\

(with slope being the derivative evaluated at point A(2,0))

\frac{dy}{dx}|_A=-\frac{4}{5} so a=-4/5.

Determine b by using what we know about A:

y=-\frac{4}{5}x+b\\0=-\frac{4}{5}\cdot 2+b\implies b=\frac{8}{5}

so the function is

y = -\frac{4}{5}x+\frac{8}{5}\\5y + 4x = 8

(i) this is demonstrated above

(ii) distance AC: we know A(2,0) and C(0,5/8), the distance is:

\sqrt{(0-2)^2+(\frac{5}{8}-0)^2}=\sqrt{281}/8\approx 2.1

Multiply and simplify. (2x - 1)(6x - 7)
Kryger [21]

Answer:

D) 12x² - 20x + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Use FOIL when multiplying 2 binomials...

FOIL is Firsts, Outsides, Insides, Lasts.  It's the order in which you multiply the numbers in the binomials...

(2x - 1)(6x - 7)    

Firsts:  (2x)(6x) = 12x²

Outsides:  (2x)(-7) = -14x

Insides:  (-1)(6x) = -6x

Lasts:  (-1)(-7) = 7

Now add them up...

12x² - 14x - 6x + 7

    12x² - 20x + 7
