Answer:

We conclude that the equation in slope-intercept form of the line that passes through (12,9) and is perpendicular to the graph of y = -3/4x + 1 will be:

$y=\frac{4}{3}x-7$

Step-by-step explanation:

We know the slope-intercept form of the line equation

y = mx+b

where

m is the slope

b is the y-intercept

Given the line

y = -3/4x + 1

comparing with the slope-intercept form of the line equation

The slope = m = -3/4

We know that a line perpendicular to another line contains a slope that is the negative reciprocal of the slope of the other line, such as:

slope = m = -3/4

Thus, the slope of the new perpendicular line = – 1/(-3/4) = 4/3

Using the point-slope form

$y-y_1=m\left(x-x_1\right)$

where m is the slope of the line and (x₁, y₁) is the point

substituting the values of the slope = 4/3 and the point (12, 9)

$y-y_1=m\left(x-x_1\right)$

$y-9=\frac{4}{3}\left(x-12\right)$

Add 9 to both sides

$y-9+9=\frac{4}{3}\left(x-12\right)+9$

$y=\frac{4}{3}x-16+9$

$y=\frac{4}{3}x-7$

Therefore, we conclude that the equation in slope-intercept form of the line that passes through (12,9) and is perpendicular to the graph of y = -3/4x + 1 will be:

$y=\frac{4}{3}x-7$

Find the interval(s) where the function is increasing and the interval(s) where it is decreasing. (Enter your answers using inte

Mashcka [7]

Answer:

f'(x) > 0 on $(-\infty ,\frac{1}{e})$ and f'(x)<0 on $(\frac{1}{e},\infty)$

Step-by-step explanation:

1) To find and interval where any given function is increasing, the first derivative of its function must be greater than zero:

$f'(x)>0$

To find its decreasing interval :

$f'(x)$

2) Then let's find the critical point of this function:

$f'(x)=\frac{\mathrm{d} }{\mathrm{d} x}[6-2^{2x}]=\frac{\mathrm{d} }{\mathrm{d}x}[6]-\frac{\mathrm{d}}{\mathrm{d}x}[2^{2x}]=0-[ln(2)*2^{2x}*\frac{\mathrm{d}}{\mathrm{d}x}[2x]=-ln(2)*2^{2x}*2=-ln2*2^{2x+1\Rightarrow }f'(x)=-ln(2)*2^{2x}*2\\-ln(2)*2^{2x+1}=-2x^{2x}(ln(x)+1)=0$

2.2 Solving for x this equation, this will lead us to one critical point since x' is not defined for Real set, and x'' $=\frac{1}{e}$ ≈0.37 for e≈2.72

$x^{2x}=0 \ni \mathbb{R}\\(ln(x)+1)=0\Rightarrow ln(x)=-1\Rightarrow x=e^{-1}\Rightarrow x\approx 2.72^{-1}x\approx 0.37$

3) Finally, check it out the critical point, i.e. f'(x) >0 and below f'(x)<0.

Triangle ABC is similar to triangle DEF. The length of BC is 21cm. The length of DE is 10 cm. The length of EF is 14 cm. What is

Anarel [89]

It's a similar triangle so the ratios of corresponding sides should be equal which means

BC/EF = AB/DE
21/14 = AB/10
AB = 21/14 * 10 = 15 cm
