Answer:
AC=16 units
Step-by-step explanation:
The diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other. It was given that diagonals AC and BD intersect at point E.
This implies that: .
We substitute the expression for x, we get:
.
Group similar terms to get:
.
.
AC = 2(12-4x)
AC=2(12-4(1))
AC=2(8)
AC=16
Answer:
( , 8 )
Step-by-step explanation:
the equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
y = 10x - 2 ← is in slope- intercept form
with slope m = 10
Parallel lines have equal slopes
then the tangent to the parabola with a slope of 10 is required.
the slope of the tangent at any point on the parabola is
differentiate each term using the power rule
(a
) = na
, then
= 6x + 2
equating this to 10 gives
6x + 2 = 10 ( subtract 2 from both sides )
6x = 8 ( divide both sides by 6 )
x = =
substitute this value into the equation of the parabola for corresponding y- coordinate.
y = 3( )² + 2
= (3 × ) + 2
= +
=
= 8
the point on the parabola with tangent parallel to y = 10x - 2 is ( , 8 )
