Answer:

If you construct the perpendicular bisector of a line segment, every point on the perpendicular bisector will be the same distance from both point A and point B.

To construct an isosceles triangle, you can start from any point on the perpendicular bisector and draw line segments to point A and to point B

Please answer this question...

Answer: I believe the standard deviation will remain the same, 6, choice A.

Step-by-step explanation: Standard deviation is calkculated based on the difference of each point from the mean. If 10 were added to each score, the mean would also increase by 10. That would mean that the difference between the mean and each score would be exactly the same, leading to an identical standard deviation. Sounds crazy, but that's what numbers do for a living.

Let f(x)=x^3-x-1

alexira [117]

$f(x) = x^3 - x - 1$

To find the gradient of the tangent, we must first differentiate the function.

$f'(x) = \frac{d}{dx}(x^3 - x - 1) = 3x^2 - 1$

The gradient at x = 0 is given by evaluating f'(0).

$f'(0) = 3(0)^2 - 1 = -1$

The derivative of the function at this point is negative, which tells us <em>the function is decreasing at that point</em>.

The tangent to the line is a straight line, so we will have a linear equation of the form y = mx + c. We know the gradient, m, is equal to -1, so

$y = -x + c$

Now we need to substitute a point on the tangent into this equation to find c. We know a point when x = 0 lies on here. To find the y-coordinate of this point we need to evaluate f(0).

$f(0) = (0)^3 - (0) - 1 = -1$

So the point (0, -1) lies on the tangent. Substituting into the tangent equation:

$y = -x + c \\\\ -1 = -(0) + c \\\\ -1 = c \\\\ \text{Equation of tangent is } \boxed{y = -x - 1}$
