Answer:

because (-4)2 is the same as -4*-4

Step-by-step explanation:

you are just simply findimg the square of -4 which is 16 because -*- is equal to + while -42 is just a number it does not signify finding the square

Find an equation of the tangent to the curve at the point corresponding to the given value of the parameter. x = t7 + 1, y = t8
Jet001 [13]
I must assume that you meant t=1 (not t=?1).  If t=1, here's what we'd do:

1.  Find the x and y values corresponding to t=1.  They are:
      x=(1)^7+1=2     and    y=(1)^8+1=2.  (Please note:  write t^8 instead of t8,                and write t^7 instead of t7.)
2.  The slope of the tangent line to the graph is
                          dy/dt            8t^7+1
          dy/dx = ----------   = ---------------- with 1 substituted for t
                         dx/dt              7t^6
  
      Thus, dy/dx (at t=1) = 9/7

3.  Now we have both a point (2,2) on the graph and the slope of the tangent line to the curve at that point:  9/7

4.  The tangent line to the curve at (2,2) is  found by using the point-slope formula:

y-y1 = m(x-x1)

which comes out to y-2 = 9/7(x-2), or 7y-14 = 9(x-2).  You could, if you wished, simplify this result further (e. g., by solving for y in terms of x).

IS ANYONE GOOD AT CALCULUS? PLEASE HELP!!! The rate at which a certain radioactive isotope decays is given by = negative 0.0032
victus00 [196]

Answer:

90 days.

Step-by-step explanation:

dy/dt = - 0.0032y

dy = -0.0032y dt

dy/y = -0.0032 dt

Integrating:

ln y = -0.0032t + c     where c is some constant

y = e^(-0032t) + e^c

y = A e^(-0032t)   where A is a constant.

At time 0 we can let y = 1 so in that case A = 1

When there is 0.75 of y left:

0.75 = e^-0032t

ln 0,75 =  -0032 t

t = ln 0.75 / -0032

t = 90.

Using the equation y = 3x – 5, what would the output be for an input of 2
Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 3x - 5.....input values are x and output values are y

so if ur input (x) is 2.....sub 2 in for x and find ur output (y)

y = 3x - 5

y = 3(2) - 5

y = 6 - 5

y = 1 <=== ur output value

A line with a slope of 5/7 passes through the point (7, 8) what is it’s equation in slope intercept form?
Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

y = (5/7)x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

We use the form y = mx + b.  Substituting (5/7) for m, 7 for x and 8 for y, we get:

8 = (5/7)(7) + b, or 8 = 5 + b.  Thus, b = 3, and the desired equation is

y = (5/7)x + 3
