Trish is correct because whatever number starts the tree equals 48 anyway. The numbers that matters is if you follow through when factoring out the whole tree of 48.
This is a horizontal line at y = -3. If you want to find it mathematically, you could find the slope (y2-y1)/(x2-x1) and you would get 0 over 5, so you know the slope is zero. Pick either point and substitute the numbers into point-slope formula. I went with (3, -3) and got (y - -3) = 0(x-3). The right side is just 0, and if you subtract three from both sides to isolate y, you get the equation y = -3.
C. The functions fans g have different axes of symmetry and different minimum values
This is a linear differential equation of first order. Solve this by integrating the coefficient of the y term and then raising e to the integrated coefficient to find the integrating factor, i.e. the integrating factor for this problem is e^(6x).
<span>Multiplying both sides of the equation by the integrating factor: </span>
<span>(y')e^(6x) + 6ye^(6x) = e^(12x) </span>
<span>The left side is the derivative of ye^(6x), hence </span>
<span>d/dx[ye^(6x)] = e^(12x) </span>
<span>Integrating </span>
<span>ye^(6x) = (1/12)e^(12x) + c where c is a constant </span>
<span>y = (1/12)e^(6x) + ce^(-6x) </span>
<span>Use the initial condition y(0)=-8 to find c: </span>
<span>-8 = (1/12) + c </span>
<span>c=-97/12 </span>
<span>Hence </span>
<span>y = (1/12)e^(6x) - (97/12)e^(-6x)</span>
