Answer:

parallel: -1/2

perpendicular: 2

Step-by-step explanation:

lines that are parallel have the same slope because they never intersect

lines that perpendicular, have the opposite reciprocal slope.

y = mx + b

where m is the slope

y = -1/2x + 6

-1/2 is the slope.

the slope in the equation given: -1/2

the slope parallel to the line given : -1/2

the slope perpendicular : opposite reciprocal, so the opposite of -1/2 is 1/2 and the reciprocal of 1/2 is 2.

St Question 1 Calculate the derivative of y = f(x) = 3 x(4x + 7) Your answer:

kondor19780726 [428]

Answer:

$\frac{dy}{dx} = 24 x + 21$

Step-by-step explanation:

Explanation:-

Given that the function

y = f(x) = 3 x ( 4 x + 7)

y = 3 x ( 4 x + 7)

y = 12 x² + 21 x ..(i)

Differentiating equation (i) with respective to 'x' , we get

$\frac{dy}{dx} = 12 (2x) +21 (1)$

$\frac{dy}{dx} = 24 x + 21$
