The tangent line to <em>y</em> = <em>f(x)</em> at a point (<em>a</em>, <em>f(a)</em> ) has slope d<em>y</em>/d<em>x</em> at <em>x</em> = <em>a</em>. So first compute the derivative:
<em>y</em> = <em>x</em>² - 9<em>x</em> → d<em>y</em>/d<em>x</em> = 2<em>x</em> - 9
When <em>x</em> = 4, the function takes on a value of
<em>y</em> = 4² - 9•4 = -20
and the derivative is
d<em>y</em>/d<em>x</em> (4) = 2•4 - 9 = -1
Then use the point-slope formula to get the equation of the tangent line:
<em>y</em> - (-20) = -1 (<em>x</em> - 4)
<em>y</em> + 20 = -<em>x</em> + 4
<em>y</em> = -<em>x</em> - 24
The normal line is perpendicular to the tangent, so its slope is -1/(-1) = 1. It passes through the same point, so its equation is
<em>y</em> - (-20) = 1 (<em>x</em> - 4)
<em>y</em> + 20 = <em>x</em> - 4
<em>y</em> = <em>x</em> - 24
Answer: 4.00
Step-by-step explanation: There are 60 minutes in 1 hour. So, 60/15 gives you your answer. 60/15 = 4, but it says write it as a decimal. So, your answer will be 4.00.
Answer:
4( t - 7) ( t - 3 )
Step-by-step explanation:
4t² - 40t + 84
4(t² - 10t + 21)
4( t - 7) ( t - 3 )
Answer:
y = 11
Step-by-step explanation:
We have that
<span>(3/-5y)
we know that
</span><span>zero in the denominator is NOT allowed
</span><span>y = 0 is the non permissible replacement for y in this expression </span>
the domain of this <span>expression is all y value real numbers except the value of y=0
domain is (-</span>∞,0) ∩ (0,∞)
the answer is
y=0
