Write the equation of the line in fully simplified slope-intercept form. y intercept = -2 (GIVE EXPLANATION)

Answer:

See Below:

Step-by-step explanation:

So, first of all. to find the equation of the line, the equation has to be in y=mx+b form. In this for the following are:

  • m is the slope of the line
  • b  is the y intercept

Solving

So, first of all, to find the equation of the line, we can get two points from the line, you can pick any points you want, but for this case, I will be using (0,-2) and (-2,0).

To solve for the slope, we can use rise over run to find the equation.

\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}

Upon inserting our points into the equation, we get a slope of -1.

\frac{0-(-2)}{-2-0}=\frac{2}{-2}=-1

Creating The Equation

To create the equation in y=mx+b form, we need to know what the intercept and the slope are, for which we solved above. We can now put in the things we found to get our final equation.

y=-1x-2

We know the slope has to be -1 as we solved for that, and because the line is decending downwards, we can interpret the slope as down 1 right 1.

We know that b is -2 because the y intercept is -2 and b is equal to the y intercept. Therefore the b cation is -2.

Cheers!

Identify any extrema of the function by recognizing its given form or its form after completing the square. Verify your results
Andrews [41]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

g(x, y) = 5 - (x - 3)² - (y + 2)²

Let find the grad of the function,

The grad of a function is defined as

∇g= ∂g/∂x •i + ∂g/∂y •j + ∂g/∂z •k

∇g = gx•i + gy•j + gz•k

gx = -2(x-3) = -2x+6

gy = -2(y+2) = -2y -4

∇g = (-2x+6) •i + (-2y-4)•j

We have a maximum or a minimum If g conservative, then, ∇g = 0i +0j

Then comparing this to the grad of the function

(-2x+6) •i + (-2y-4)•j = 0i +0j

Then, -2x+6 = 0

2x=6

x = 3

Also, -2y-4=0

-2y=4

y = -2

Then, g(x, y) = 5 - (x - 3)² - (y + 2)²

g(x, y) = 5 - (3 - 3)² - (-2 + 2)²

g(x, y) = 5

So the critical point is (3, -2, 5)

gx =-2x+6

Second derivative of gx with respect to x

gxx=-2

gy=-2y-4

Second derivative of gy with respect to y

gyy=-2

Second derivative of gx with respect to y

gxy =0

d =gxxgyy - (gxy)²

Then, gyy=gxx

d = -2×-2 -0²

d = 4-0=4

Since d>0

Since d is greater than 0, then, it is not a chair points.

Then, since gxx=-2<0, gyy=-2<0

Cause the second derivative in x (or in y) is less than zero, then the point is relatively maximum

So the maximum point is (3, -2, 5).

Sean tossed a coin off a bridge into the stream below. The path of the coin can be represented by the equation 2 h tt = − 16t^2+
tekilochka [14]

Answer:

It will take 5.61 seconds for the coin to reach the stream.

Step-by-step explanation:

The height of the coin, after t seconds, is given by the following equation:

h(t) = -16t^{2} + 72t + 100

How long will it take the coin to reach the stream?

The stream is the ground level.

So the coin reaches the stream when h(t) = 0.

h(t) = -16t^{2} + 72t + 100

-16t^{2} + 72t + 100 = 0

Multiplying by (-1)

16t^{2} - 72t - 100 = 0

Solving a quadratic equation:

Given a second order polynomial expressed by the following equation:

ax^{2} + bx + c, a\neq0.

This polynomial has roots x_{1}, x_{2} such that ax^{2} + bx + c = a(x - x_{1})*(x - x_{2}), given by the following formulas:

x_{1} = \frac{-b + \sqrt{\bigtriangleup}}{2*a}

x_{2} = \frac{-b - \sqrt{\bigtriangleup}}{2*a}

\bigtriangleup = b^{2} - 4ac

In this question:

16t^{2} - 72t - 100 = 0

So

a = 16, b = -72, c = -100

\bigtriangleup = (-72)^{2} - 4*16*(-100) = 11584

t_{1} = \frac{-(-72) + \sqrt{11584}}{2*16} = 5.61

t_{2} = \frac{-(-72) - \sqrt{11584}}{2*16} = -1.11

Time is a positive measure, so we take the positive value.

It will take 5.61 seconds for the coin to reach the stream.
