Answer:

8x - 14 = 5x + 34 (alternate exterior angles)

8x - 5x = 34 + 14

3x = 48

x = 48/3

x = 16

5y + 16 + 8x - 14 = 180 (linear pair)

5y + 16 + 8(16) - 14 = 180

5y + 16 + 128 - 14 = 180

5y + 130 = 180

5y = 180 - 130

5y = 50

y = 50/5

y = 10

∠ (8x - 14) = 114 [(8 × 16 -14)=114]

∠ (5x + 34) = 114 [(5 × 16 +34)=114]

∠ (5y + 16) = 66 [(5 × 10 +16)=66]

hope this helps you!

find the slope of the curve y=x^2-2x-5 at the point P(2,5) by finding the limit of secant slopes through point P

Fynjy0 [20]

The point (2, 5) is not on the curve; probably you meant to say (2, -5)?

Consider an arbitrary point Q on the curve to the right of P, $(t,y(t))=(t,t^2-2t-5)$ , where $t>2$ . The slope of the secant line through P and Q is given by the difference quotient,

$\dfrac{(t^2-2t-5)-(-5)}{t-2}=\dfrac{t^2-2t}{t-2}=\dfrac{t(t-2)}{t-2}=t$

where we are allowed to simplify because $t\neq2$ .

Then the equation of the secant line is

$y-(-5)=t(x-2)\implies y=t(x-2)-5$

Taking the limit as $t\to2$ , we have

$\displaystyle\lim_{t\to2}t(x-2)-5=2(x-2)-5=2x-9$

so the slope of the line tangent to the curve at P as slope 2.

- - -

We can verify this with differentiation. Taking the derivative, we get

$\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}=2x-2$

and at $x=2$ , we get a slope of $2(2)-2=2$ , as expected.

Explain how to solve a system of three equations using the elimination method.

kotykmax [81]

You can solve a system of three equations by multiplying each equation by a number that allows you to add or suvtract the same equation together by eliminating the x or y variable
