Answer:

y - 20 = 24(x - 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of a line:

The equation of a line, in point-slope form, has the following format:

y - y_0 = m(x - x_0)

In which the point is (x_0,y_0) and the slope is m.

(3, 20)

This means that x_0 = 3, y_0 = 20. So

y - y_0 = m(x - x_0)

y - 20 = m(x - 3)

Slope:

The slope is the derivative of the function at the point:

The function is:

y = x^3 - 3x + 2

The derivative is:

y^{\prime}(x) = 3x^2 - 3

At the point, we have that x = 3. So

m = y^{\prime}(3) = 3*3^2 - 3 = 27 - 3 = 24

So the equation to the tangent line to the curve a the point is:

y - 20 = 24(x - 3)

The heights of two similar cylinders are 3cm and 4cm respectively. The total area of the bigger cylinder is 400cm².Calculate the
shusha [124]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Total surface area = 2πr(r+h)

If the total area of the bigger cylinder is 400cm² and radius is 4cm, then;

400=2(3.14)(r)(r+4)

400= 6.26r(r+4)

400=100.48 + 25.12h

299.52 = 25.12h

H = 299.52/25.12

H = 11.92cm

For the smaller cylinder

The height is calculated as;

H/h = R/r

11/92/

x - the number of students in a bus

4 + 9x = 472
9x = 472 - 4
9x = 468
x = 468 / 9
x = 52

The pyramid shown has a height of 14 inches and a base area of 60 in2. Find the volume of the pyramid.
Kamila [148]

Volume of pyramid is 280 in^{3}.

The pyramid has a height 14 inches and a base area of 60 in2.

What is volume?

Volume is a three - dimensional quantity that is used to measure the capacity of a solid shape.

Volume of the pyramid = Area base X \frac{height}{3}

                                    = 60.\frac{14}{3}

                                    = 280 in^{3}

So the volume of pyramid = 280 in^{3}
