Find an equation of a line through (2, 1) and perpendicular to −2x + 4y = 8
MAVERICK [17]

Hello:<span>
the equation is : y = ax+b
the slope is a : a×(1/2) = -1......( perpendicular to a line with a slope of   1/2)            because :    -2x+4y =8...y=(1/2)x+2    )     </span>

<span>
a = -2       y=(-2x+b
the line that passes through (2,1) :1 = -2(2)+b
b =5
<span> the equation is :  y  = -2x+5</span></span>

If f(x)=3 x -1 and g(x)=0.03x^3-x+1 an approximate solution for the equation f(x)=g(x) is
lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

  x ≈ {-11.789, +0.501, 11.288}

Step-by-step explanation:

The cubic g(x) - f(x) = 0 has three real solutions. It can be rewritten as ...

  g(x)-f(x)=0\\\\0.03x^3-x+1-(3x-1)=0\\\\0.03x^3-4x+2=0

Since the solutions are irrational, they are best found using a spreadsheet or graphing calculator. My favorite graphing calculator shows the approximate solutions below.

_____

<em>Comment on the problem statement</em>

Your expression for f(x) is ambiguous in that many Brainly questions have the exponentiation indicator replaced by a blank: 3 x -1 often means 3^x -1 and sometimes means 3^(x-1). We have taken the expression at face value and have assumed it is a linear expression. If otherwise, the problem is basically worked the same way: write a function h(x) = g(x) - f(x) and look for solutions to h(x) = 0. Graphing can be useful.
