<h3>Answer:   c = 7/4</h3>

================================================

Work Shown:

Compute the function value at the endpoints

f(x) = \sqrt{4-x}\\\\f(-5) = \sqrt{4-(-5)} = 3\\\\f(4) = \sqrt{4-4} = 0\\\\

With a = -5 and b = 4, we have

f'(c) = \frac{f(b)-f(a)}{b-a}\\\\f'(c) = \frac{f(4)-f(-5)}{4-(-5)}\\\\f'(c) = \frac{0-3}{9}\\\\f'(c) = -\frac{1}{3}\\\\

So,

f(x) = \sqrt{4-x}\\\\f'(x) = -\frac{1}{2\sqrt{4-x}}\\\\f'(c) = -\frac{1}{3}\\\\-\frac{1}{2\sqrt{4-c}} = -\frac{1}{3}\\\\

Use algebra to solve for c

-\frac{1}{2\sqrt{4-c}} = -\frac{1}{3}\\\\\frac{1}{2\sqrt{4-c}} = \frac{1}{3}\\\\3 = 2\sqrt{4-c}\\\\2\sqrt{4-c} = 3\\\\\sqrt{4-c} = \frac{3}{2}\\\\4-c = \frac{9}{4}\\\\c = 4-\frac{9}{4}\\\\c = \frac{16-9}{4}\\\\c = \frac{7}{4}\\\\

Answer:

Answer is option b)

<em>Answer is </em><em>given below with explanations</em><em>. </em>

Step-by-step explanation:

a \: walking \: path \: is \: represented \: by \:  \\ y =  - 4x - 6 \\ 4x + y + 6 = 0 \\ given \: that \\ a \: new \: path \: will \: be \: built \: perpendicular  \\ \: to \:  \: the \: walking \: path \\ the \: equation \: of \: the \: line \: perpendicular \: to \\ 4x + y + 6 = 0 \: is \\ x - 4y + k = 0 \\ since \: it \: passes \: through \: ( - 4,10) \\ substitute \: x \:  =  - 4\: and \: y = 10 \: in \: required \: equation \\  - 4 - 4(10) + k = 0 \\ k = 44 \\ then \: the \: equation \: is \\ x - 4y + 44 = 0 \\ adding \: 4y \: on \: both \: sides \\ x + 44 = 4y \\ dividing \: by \: 4 \: on \: both \: sides \\ y =  \frac{x}{4}  + 11 \\ y =  \frac{1}{4} x + 11 \\ so \: the \: answer \: is \: option \: b) \:   \frac{1}{4} x + 11

The general term for the sequence 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, . . . is
Nuetrik [128]

We are given

sequence is 2 , 4 , 8 ,16 , 32 , .....

Firstly , we will check whether it is geometric sequence

Checking geometric sequence:

We will find common ratio between successive terms

and then we check whether they are equal

r1=(second term)/(first term)

r_1=\frac{4}{2}=2

r2=(third term)/(second term)

r_2=\frac{8}{4}=2

r3=(fourth term)/(third term)

r_3=\frac{16}{8}=2

r4=(fifth term)/(fourth term)

r_4=\frac{32}{16}=2

we can see that all four ratios are same

r_1=r_2=r_3=r_4=2

so, this is geometric sequence

Calculation of general term:

We got

common ratio is

r=2

Let's assume

number of terms is n

first term is 2

a_1=2

now, we can use formula

a_n=a_1 (r)^{n-1}

we can plug values

and we get

a_n=2(2)^{n-1}

a_n=2^1(2)^{n-1}

a_n=(2)^{n-1+1}

a_n=(2)^{n}..................Answer

NEED HELP ASAP, PLEASE
kozerog [31]

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

8x and 7x + 3 are vertically opposite angles.

Vertically opposite angles are equal,

8x = 7x + 3

8x - 7x = 3

x = 3
