Given that the line y=c-2x is tangent to the curve y^2=kx where c and k are non-zero constants,express k in terms of c
Viktor [21]

Answer:

k = -8c.

Step-by-step explanation:

y^2 = kx

Find the slope of the tangent by differentiating:

y' 2y = k

y' = k / 2y = the slope of the tangent.

The given equation of the tangent is y = -2x + c so the slope = -2.

Therefore  k/2y =  -2  so k = -4y and y = -k/4

y^2 = kx so k^2/16 = kx giving x = k/16.

Substituting for x and y in y = -2x + c:

-k/4 = -2 k/16 + c

-k/4 = -k/8  + c

c = -k/4 + k/8 = -k/8.

So -k = 8c

k = -8c.

Find the 3rd term of an arithmetic sequence with t2= 9/2 and t5= 6
qwelly [4]
<span>Well a simply way is to look at the problem as

Term 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 ----------------------------
Value | 9/2 | | | 6

There are 3 terms from 2 to 5 and the value increases 6 - 9/2 = 3/2 so the common difference is 3/2 divided by 3 so the common difference is 1/2 so to find the 3rd term add 1/2 to the 2nd term the pattern is each term is increasing by 1/2.. or 1/2 is added to the previous term. </span>

Value of m varies directly as value of n and n=5 when m=12. What is n when m=18?
Shkiper50 [21]
Simplify the problem down, so:

m = 12 & n = 5
<em />m = 6 & n = 2.5 <em>(divided each number by 20)
</em>
Now m is a factor of 18. Multiply each number by 3.
Answer: m = 18 & <em>n = 7.5</em>
