At what point on the graph of y=2e^X -1 is the tangent line parallel to the line y= 5x -1

1 answer:

5 0

Paralell has same slope
y=mx+b
m=slope
y=5x-1
when is the slope 5?

take the derivitive of 2e^x
f'(2e^x)=2f'(e^x)=2e^x

that is the slope
5=2e^x
divide both sides by 2
2.5=e^x
take the ln of both sides
ln2.5=x

when x=ln2.5 they are paralell

What are the foci of the hyperbola with equation 5y^2-4x^2=20?

shusha [124]

The foci of the hyperbola with equation 5y^2-4x^2=20 will be given as follows:
divide each term by 20
(5y^2)/20-(4x^2)/20=20/20
simplifying gives us:
y^2/4-x^2/5=1
This follows the standard form of the hyperbola
(y-k)²/a²-(x-h)²/b²=1
thus
a=2, b=√5 , k=0, h=0
Next we find c, the distance from the center to a focus.
√(a²+b²)
=√(2²+(√5)²)
=√(4+5)
=√9
=3
the focus of the hyperbola is found using formula:
(h.h+k)
substituting our values we get:
(0,3)
The second focus of the hyperbola can be found by subtracting c from k
(h,k-c)
substituting our values we obtain:
(0,-3)

Thus we have two foci
(0,3) and (0,-3)
