Answer:

The point slope form of the line would be y + 4 = 2/3(x - 8) and the equation of the line would be y = 2/3x - 28/3

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the point-slope form of the line, start with the base form of point-slope form. Then input the point we have and the slope in the appropriate places.

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - -4 = 2/3(x - 8)

y + 4 = 2/3(x - 8)

Now to find the slope intercept form, you simply  need to solve for y.

y + 4 = 2/3(x - 8)

y + 4 = 2/3x - 16/3

y = 2/3x - 28/3

The slope of the tangent line to the curve x^3y+y^2-x^2=5 at the point (2,1) is
zheka24 [161]

Answer:

-4/5

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope of the tangent to the equation at any point we must differentiate the equation.

x^3y+y^2-x^2=5

3x^2y+x^3y'+2yy'-2x=0

Gather terms with y' on one side and terms without on opposing side.

x^3y'+2yy'=2x-3x^2y

Factor left side

y'(x^3+2y)=2x-3x^2y

Divide both sides by (x^3+2y)

y'=(2x-3x^2y)/(x^3+2y)

y' is the slope any tangent to the given equation at point (x,y).

Plug in (2,1):

y'=(2(2)-3(2)^2(1))/((2)^3+2(1))

Simplify:

y'=(4-12)/(8+2)

y'=-8/10

y'=-4/5

A baseball tournament begins with 128 teams. After each round of games , only half of the teams are left. How many teams will be
Zanzabum

Answer:

128/2=64/2=32

Step-by-step explanation:

you really need a help with that ? you don't know how to divide by 2 ? and then to divide the result another time by 2 ?

not to mention that you could achieve that with in division by 4 (as this is the save as dividing by 2 and then again by 2).

putting such questions in here is a farce and a waste of time for the helping people.
