1.
the slope of the line y=3x+2 is the coefficient of x, that is 3.
2.
the slope of any line perpendicular to the line y=3x+2, is m, such that:
so
3.
so any line with equation y=-1/3x+k is perpendicular to y=3x+2.
moreover, the line y=-1/3x (so k=0) is the line passing through the origin
(0, 0) and perpendicular to y=3x+2
4. This means that the closest point of y=3x+2 to the origin is the intersection point of lines y=3x+2 and y=-1/3x
5.
to find this point:
3x+2=(-1/3)x
x(3+1/3)=-2
x(9/3+1/3)=-2
x*10/3=-2
thus y is : (-1/3)(-6/10)=0.2

Answer:
a = 2, b = - 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
y = ax² + bx
is the measure of the slope at x = a
Differentiate each term with respect to x using the power rule
(a
) = na
= 2ax + b, hence
2ax + b = 3 at (2, - 2)
Substitute x = 2 into
4a + b = 3 → (1) and substitute x = 2 into y
4a + 2b = - 2 → (2)
Subtract ( 1) from (2)
b = - 2 - 3 = - 5
Substitute b = - 5 into (1)
4a - 5 = 3 ( add 5 to both sides )
4a = 8 ( divide both sides by 4 )
a = 2
