<h2>Answer: c.) ¹⁵/₄</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

If we transpose the equation into the slope-intercept form (y = mx + c), the value of c is the y-intercept.

since x + 4y = 15

then 4y = - x + 15

∴ y = -¹/₄ x + ¹⁵/₄

<h3>⇒ the y-intercept for the line x + 4y = 15 is ¹⁵/₄</h3>

Solve for x. <br> 8x^2 - 5 = 11

GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

x = ±sqrt(2)

Step-by-step explanation:

8x^2 - 5 = 11

Add 5 to each side

8x^2 - 5+5 = 11+5

8x^2 = 16

Divide each side by 8

8x^2 = 16/8

x^2 = 2

Take the square root of each side

sqrt(x^2) = ±sqrt(2)

x = ±sqrt(2)

The parametric curve described by the equations x=\cos(t),\;\;y=\sin(t)\cos(t) has two tangent lines at (0, 0). find the equatio

mr Goodwill [35]

Hello,

$x=cos(t)==\ \textgreater \ \dfrac{dx}{dt} =-sin(t)\\
y= \dfrac{sin(2t)}{2}==\ \textgreater \ \dfrac{dy}{dt} =cos(2t)\\

 \dfrac{dy}{dx} = \dfrac{ \frac{dy}{dt}}{ \frac{dx}{dt} } =- \frac{cos(2t)}{sin(t)} \\
For\ x=0, \ t=cos(0)= \frac{ \pi }{2} +k \pi \\

( \dfrac{dy}{dx} )_{x=0} =\pm\ 1\\

tangents \ are\ \{ y=-x,y=x \}\\
