The tangent of the graph of y=<img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=e%5E%7Bax%7D" id="TexFormula1" title="e^{ax}" alt="e^{ax}" align
bearhunter [10]

a) The tangent to y=e^{ax} at x=p has slope

y' = ae^{ax} \implies y'(p) = ae^{ap}

and y=e^{ap} at this point. It passes through the origin, so its equation is

y - 0 = ae^{ap} (x - 0) \implies y = ae^{ap} x

It also passes through the point (p,e^{ap}) on the curve, so

y - e^{ap} = ae^{ap} (x - p) \implies y = e^{ap} + ae^{ap} x - ape^{ap}

By substitution,

ae^{ap} x = e^{ap} + ae^{ap} x - ape^{ap} \implies e^{ap} = ape^{ap} \implies ap=1 \\\\ \implies \boxed{p=\dfrac1a}

b) The normal to y=e^{ax} at x=2p has slope

-\dfrac1{y'(2p)} = -\dfrac1{ae^{2ap}} = -1 \implies ae^{2ap} = 1

It follows that

ae^{2ap} = ae^2 = 1 \implies \boxed{a = \dfrac1{e^2} \text{ and } p = e^2}

c) The tangent line equation is then

y = \dfrac1{e^2} e^1 x \implies \boxed{y = \dfrac xe}

Phantasy [73]

Since the sandwich cost 3 times as much as the chips and the sandwich is $6 then the chips must cost $2.

C = 6(5) + 2b

42 = 30 + 2b

12 = 2b

6 = b

Answer: Casey bought 6 bags of chips

Use parenthesis to make each number sentence true. <br><br> 124 - 6 x 0 + 15 = 34
Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

12 - 6 x (0 + 15) = 34

How I got my answer

First, how i got my answer was that I had to solve the equation first, ignoring the answer. I got 0 x 6 = 0, then I did 124 - 0 = 124, then I did 124 - 15 = 109, which clearly isn't 34. I figured that we have to put the parentheses around the zero because if we don't, we are going have to multiply something by zero, which always gets zero. After that, I decided that I should put the parentheses around either the 6, or the 15. I did both, and saw which one was correct. If we put it around the 6, we get, 124 - (6 x 0) + 15 = 124 - 0 - 15 = 124 - 15 = 109, which isn't 34. Then I checked 124 - 6 x (0 + 15) = 124 - 6 x 15 = 124 - 90 = 34, and we just got the answer.

P.S. Sorry if it was confusing, I didn't really know how to explain it
