Answer:

  a)  12

  b)  y +5 = 12(x +2)

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of a function is its derivative.

a) The slope of y = x^3 +3 at any point is y' = 3x^2. So, at the point where x=-2, the slope of the curve is ...

  m = 3(-2)^2 = 12 . . . . slope at (-2, -5)

__

b) The equation of the tangent line is most easily written using the point-slope form of the equation of a line.

  y -k = m(x -h) . . . . . line with slope m through point (h, k)

  y +5 = 12(x +2) . . . . line with slope 12 through point (-2, -5)

Which of the following are roots of the polynomial function? Check all that apply.
lutik1710 [3]

You know 1 is not a root because the sum of the coeffcients of the equation is 14, not zero.

It is fairly easy to try 3 by synthetic division (see attachment), which tells you that 3 is a root and the remaining quadratic factor is x²-3x-5. The quadratic formula tells you the roots of that factor are

... x = (-b±√(b²-4ac))/(2a) = (3±√29)/2

The appropriate choices are

... C. (3-√29)/2

... D. (3+√29)/2

... F. 3

_____

The quadratic formula tells you the solution to

... ax²+bx+c=0

is x = (-b±√(b²-4ac))/(2a)

We have a=1, b=-3, c=-5.

Alexandra paid \$7$7dollar sign, 7 to park her car for 333 hours at the parking garage. The garage charges an hourly parking rat
NeX [460]
Assuming that the fee is purely based on duration, the equation would look like this:
c= a*p
where c= cost, a= rates per hour, p= hours of parking

Alexandra pays 7$ for 3 hours parking. So, a would be:
c= a*p
7$= a * 3 hr
a= 7$/3hr

Then the final equation would be: 
c= (7/3) *p
