Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given quadratic equation is,

-32 = 2(x² + 10x)

-32 + 50 = 2(x² + 10x + 25)

18 = 2(x + 5)²

9 = (x + 5)²

± 3 = (x + 5)

x = -2 or x = -8

PLEASE HELP ME! A skydiver parachutes to the ground. The height y (in feet) of the skydiver after x seconds is y = -10x + 3000.
tatuchka [14]
A) Plot a point at (0, 3000), then subtract 10 for every second that passes by.
B) The slope is negative because the skydiver is falling and the graph is plotting his descent, his x intercept is at (300, 0) which means he will touch land after 300 seconds
To find the the x intercept, make y equal 0 so 0=-10x+3000, subtract by 3000 on each side, and you end up with -3000=-10x, you then divide both sides by -10 and you end up 300=x or x=300

Write equations for the horizontal and vertical lines passing through the point (-6,1)
Oksanka [162]

Answer:

y = 1 and x = - 6

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a horizontal line parallel to the x- axis is

y = c ( where c is the value of the y- coordinates the line passes through )

The line passes through (- 6, 1 ) with y- coordinate 1 , then

y = 1 ← equation of horizontal line

The equation of a vertical line parallel to the y- axis is

x = c ( where c is the value of the x- coordinates the line passes through )

The line passes through (- 6, 1 ) with x- coordinate - 6 , then

x = - 6  ← is equation of vertical line

Find the derivative of f(x) = 8 divided by x at x = -1.<br><br> 4<br> 0<br> 8<br> -8
Amanda [17]
\bf \stackrel{f(x)}{y}=\cfrac{8}{x}\implies y=8x^{-1}\implies \cfrac{dy}{dx}=8(-1)x^{-2}\implies \cfrac{dy}{dx}=-8x^{-2}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\left.  \cfrac{dy}{dx}=-\cfrac{8}{x^2}\right|_{x=-1}\implies \cfrac{-8}{(-1)^2}\implies -8
