If you are going from a larger unit to a smaller unit, you multiply. If you are going from a smaller unit, you divide
Coefficient of 'x'= 5a
Coefficient of 'x square'= -17
Constant term = 14a
Answer:
75
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the ratio between flamingos and chachalacas is 2:1, we see that the ratio of flamingos to chachalacas to parrots to herons is 10:5:7:3. The sum of these numbers is 25, so every 'ratio number' gets 375/25 = 15 animals. So the number of chachalacas is 15 * 5 = 75.
Answer:
m = -1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
y = 3x-4
This is in slope intercept form
y = mx+b m is the slope and b is the y intercept
The slope is 3 and the y intercept is -4
We want the slope of a line that is perpendicular
Perpendicular lines have slopes that multiply to -1
Let m be the slope of the line that is perpendicular
3 * m = -1
Divide each side by 3
3m/3 = -1/3
m = -1/3
The derivative of f(x) at x=3 is 2x=6 approaching from the left side (apply power rule to y=x^2). The derivative of f(x) at x=3 is m approaching from the right side. In order for the function to be differentiable, the limit of derivative at x=3 must be the same approaching from both sides, so m=6. Then, x^2=mx+b at x=3, plug in m=6, 9=18+b, so b=-9.
