A storm moves at a rate of 8 miles per hour. It is 200 miles away from Freeport and headed directly for this town. The equation

y = 200 – 8x represents this function. What does the slope and y-intercept represent in this scenario?

Pls see answer below.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case, our slope is -8. This means that every hour, the storm is getting closer to the town by 8 miles per hour.

Our y-intercept is 200, which means that its' initial position is 200 miles away from the town.

Hope this helped.

The perimeter of this triangle is 25 units. An angle bisector divides one side of the triangle into lengths of 2 and 3. Find the
grin007 [14]

Answer:

   8 and 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Sides on one side of the angle bisector are proportional to those on the other side. In the attached figure, that means

  AC/AB = CD/BD = 2/3

The perimeter is the sum of the side lengths, so is ...

  25 = AB + BC + AC

  25 = AB + 5 + (2/3)AB . . . . . . substituting AC = 2/3·AB. BC = 2+3 = 5.

  20 = 5/3·AB

  12 = AB

  AC = 2/3·12 = 8

_____

<em>Alternate solution</em>

The sum of ratio units is 2+3 = 5, so each one must stand for 25/5 = 5 units of length.

That is, the total of lengths on one side of the angle bisector (AC+CD) is 2·5 = 10 units, and the total of lengths on the other side (AB+BD) is 3·5 = 15 units. Since 2 of the 10 units are in the segment being divided (CD), the other 8 must be in that side of the triangle (AC).

Likewise, 3 of the 15 units are in the segment being divided (BD), so the other 12 units are in that side of the triangle (AB).

The remaining sides of the triangle are AB=12 and AC=8.

Given that f(–2.4) = -1 and f(-1.9) = -8, approximate<br> f'(-2.4).<br> f'(-2.4)
lora16 [44]

Answer:

f'(-2.4) ≈ -14

General Formulas and Concepts:
<u>Algebra I</u>

Coordinate Planes

  • Coordinates (x, y)

Slope Formula: \displaystyle m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}

Functions

  • Function Notation

<u>Calculus</u>

Differentiation

  • Derivatives
  • Derivative Notation

Step-by-step explanation:

*Note:

The definition of a derivative is the slope of the <em>tangent</em> <em>line</em>.

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

<em>Identify.</em>

f(-2.4) = -1

f(-1.9) = -8

<u>Step 2: Differentiate</u>

Simply plug in the 2 coordinates into the slope formula to find slope <em>m</em>.

  1. [Derivative] Set up [Slope Formula]:                                                           \displaystyle f'(-2.4) \approx \frac{f(x_2) - f(x_1)}{x_2 - x_1}
  2. Substitute in coordinates:                                                                           \displaystyle f'(-2.4) \approx \frac{-8 - -1}{-1.9 - -2.4}
  3. Evaluate:                                                                                                       \displaystyle f'(-2.4) \approx -14
