Find the equation of the line through the point (2, 5) that cuts off the least area from the first quadrant. Give your answer us
Amanda [17]

The equation of the line would be

y = mx+b 

where m is the slope, b is the y intercept. 

<span>The line will form a triangular region in the first quadrant. Its area would be 1/2 base times height. The height is the y intercept and the base is y intercept divided by slope. Therefore,</span>

A = b^2/2m

At point (2,5)

5 = 2m+b

Substitute that in the area

A = b^2/5-b to find the least area, differentiate the area with respect to the height and equate it to 0 

dA/db = 0

<span>find b and use that to find m. Then, you can have the equation of the line.</span>
