Answer:
The speed of the biker is 15
Step-by-step explanation:
First, you call the speed of the walker x, and the speed of the biker 2.5x.
Then you know that speed times time equals distance, so you set up and equation. You do x times 2, which is 2x, and then 2.5x times 2, which is 5x. Then, since the distance between them is 18 miles, the equation would be 5x-2x=18. You would get 3x=18, and x is 6. So 6 is the speed of the walker, and 6 times 2.5 = 15, so the speed of the biker is 15.

(a) mtan refers to the slope of the tangent line. Given <em>f(x)</em> = 9 + 7<em>x</em> ², compute the difference quotient:

Then as <em>h</em> approaches 0 - bearing in mind that we're specifically considering <em>h</em> <em>near</em> 0, and not <em>h</em> = 0 - we can eliminate the factor of <em>h</em> in the numerator and denominator, so that

and so the slope of the line at <em>P</em> (0, 9), for which we take <em>x</em> = 0, is 0.
(b) The equation of the tangent line is then <em>y</em> = 9.
6 ! = 720
the definition of n ! ( n factorial ) is
n ! = n(n - 1)(n - 2) ..........× 3 × 2 × 1
6 ! = 6 × 5 × 4 × 3 × 2 × 1 = 720
