Equation of the line through point (5,4) and perpendicular to y=−4/3x−2.

Mathematics

dusya [7]3 years ago

Answer:

y=3/4x+1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Perpendicular lines have slopes that are negative and reciprocal. If you multiply them together, the result is -1.

So, to find the slope of the new line, we can use this equation:

-4/3m=-1

multiply both sides by 3/-4

m=3/4

So the slope of the new line is 3/4

Here's the equation so far:

y=3/4x+b (b is a placeholder)

we can substitute the point (5,4) into the equation, since the line is going to pass through it.

4=3/4(5)+b

4=15/4+b

1/4=b

So the line is y=3/4x+1/4

Hope this helps!

Verify that the function satisfies the three hypotheses of Rolle's Theorem on the given interval. Then find all numbers c that s
RSB [31]
Well, is the function continuous?  yes, is a cubic one, you can graph it if you wish, is continuous all the way, and of course at [ 0, 4] too.

is it differentiable?  you can always look at the graph between 0,4 and is a smooth transition line, thus yes, it is differentiable, but let's check anyway,

\bf \cfrac{dy}{dx}=3x^2-2x-12    its derivative has no asymptotes and therefore no "cusps", so yes, is differentiable all around.

is f(0) = f(4), let's check

f(0) = 0+0+0+3,            f(0) = 3
f(4) = 64 - 16 - 48 + 3,   f(4) = 3

yeap

there must then be a "c" value(s) with a horizontal tangent slope, let's check, is really just the critical points.

\bf \cfrac{dy}{dx}=3x^2-2x-12\implies 0=3x^2-2x-12

\textit{using the quadratic formula}
\\\\\\
x=\cfrac{-(-2)\pm\sqrt{(-2)^2-4(3)(-12)}}{2(3)}\implies x=\cfrac{2\pm\sqrt{4+144}}{6}
\\\\\\
x=\cfrac{2\pm 2\sqrt{37}}{6}\implies x=\cfrac{2\pm\sqrt{37}}{3}\impliedby \textit{c's}

How do i solve for x in geometry
rodikova [14]

Answer: Find the value of X in triangles by subtracting known angle measurements from 180 degrees. Since the value of all angles within a triangle must equal 180 degrees, if you know at least two angles, you can subtract them from 180 to find the missing third angle

A stone is an old unit of weight used in Ireland and England to measure potatoes.A stone is 14 pounds and 80 stones make up half
Aneli [31]

Answer: Half of a ton equals to 1,120 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to analyze the information given:

Since 80 stones make up half of a long ton, and each stone weight is 14 pounds, to obtain the number of pounds in half of a long ton we simply have to multiply the number of stones (80) by the weight of each stone (14)

Mathematically speaking:

<em>14 x 80 = 1,120 pounds </em>

Half of a ton equals to 1,120 pounds.
