Answer:

y=-1/4x-6

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line is:

y=mx+b (slope-intercept form) where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. x and y are the x and y coordinates for a point on the line.

Now that we know the equation, we plug in the given numbers into the equation:

y=mx+b

-8=-1/4(8)+b

-8=-2+b

b=-6

Now we know the y-intercept so the equation is:

y=-1/4x-6

Need help on number 1, 5 and 7

zimovet [89]

Answer:

1) y = (x + 8)² + 7; 5) y = (x - 6)² + 10; 7) y = (x - 3)² - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Complete the square in order to figure these out. To complete the square, use the formula [½B]². Each time you do this, you get a perfect trinomial in the form of a product of two monomials [h], then you have to figure out how much more to deduct from or add on to your C they gave you in each exercise [k].

Find the second derivative of 2x^3-3y^2=8

Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

$\frac{d^2y}{dx^2}=\frac{x(2y-x^3)}{y^3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the first implicit derivative using implicit differentiation

$2x^3-3y^2=8\\\\6x^2-6y\frac{dy}{dx}=0\\ \\-6y\frac{dy}{dx}=-6x^2\\ \\\frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{x^2}{y}$

Use the substitution of dy/dx to find the second derivative (d²y/dx²)

$\frac{d^2y}{dx^2}=\frac{(y)(2x)-(x^2)(\frac{dy}{dx})}{y^2}\\ \\\frac{d^2y}{dx^2}=\frac{2xy-(x^2)(\frac{x^2}{y})}{y^2}\\\\\frac{d^2y}{dx^2}=\frac{2xy-\frac{x^4}{y}}{y^2}\\\\\frac{d^2y}{dx^2}=\frac{x(2y-x^3)}{y^3}$
