Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Perpendicular lines have their slope <u>negative reciprocal</u>

y= -3x +3 has the slope -3

y = (1/3)x +b is the line that is ⊥ so it has the slope (1/3)

The line passes trough the point (x=-2, y=8) so substitute the x and y to find b

8 = (1/3)(-2) +b, multiply (1/3)(-2) = -2/3 and add 2/3 on both sides

8+(2/3) = b, find the common denominator and add the fractions

[(3*8)+2 ]/3 =b

(26/3)  = b

The equation of the line described is y= (1/3)x +(26/3)

Answer:

y = mx + b

Since it is perpendicular to the given line, its slope is the negative reciprocal of the slope of the given line.

Slope of given line:

m0 = -a/b = -(-3) / (1) = 3

Slope of perpendicular line:

m = -1/3

y = (-1/3)x + b

Use the given point to find b.

2 = (-1/3)(3) + b

2 = -1 + b

b = 3

y = (-1/3)x + 3

Can someone please help me find the domain, range, intercepts, and asymptotes pf this function?
marishachu [46]
1) given function

y = - 2 ^ ( -x + 2) + 1

2) domain: domain is the set of the x-values for which the function is defined.

The exponential function is defined for all the real numbers, so the domain of the given function is all the real numbers.

3) x-intercept => y = 0

=> y = - 2 ^ ( -x + 2) + 1 = 0 => 2^ ( -x + 2) = 1

=> - x + 2 = 0 => x = 2

The x-intercept is x = 0

4) y-intercept => x = 0

=> y = - 2 ^ ( -x + 2) + 1= - 2 ^ ( 0 + 2)  1 = - (2)^(2) + 1 =- 4 + 1 = - 3

=> The y-intercept is - 3

5) limit when x -> negative infinite

Lim f(x) when x -> ∞ = - ∞

6) limit when x -> infinite

Lim f(x) when x - > infinite = 1

=> asymptote = y = 1

7) range is the set of values of the fucntion: y

Given that the function is strictly decreasing from -∞ to ∞, the range is from - ∞ to less than 1

Range (-∞,1)

Virty [35]

Answer:

=3 + 4/12 + 3/12

Step-by-step explanation:

To make 1/3 into a twelfth, you have to multiply the 3 by 4 to get 12. Whatever you do to the top you have to do to the bottom, meaning that you have to multiply 1 by 4 to get 4 on top.

To make 1/4 into a twelfth, you have to multiply the 4 by 3 to get 12. Whatever you do to the top you have to do to the bottom, meaning that you have to multiply 1 by 3 to get 3 on top.
