Answer:

y=-x+8

Step-by-step explanation:

y = mx + b is the basic formula

use the formula y2-y1/x2-x1 to get the slope to get m

-2-5/4-(-3)

-7/7

-1

then use the point slope formula y-y₁=m(x-x₁)

y-5=-1(x-(-3)

y-5=-1x+3

y=-x+8

What is the equation in point-slope form of the line passing through (4, 0) and (2, 6)? (5 points) y = 4x − 2 y = 2x − 4 y = −3(

DIA [1.3K]

For this case we have that by definition, the point-slope equation of a line is given by:

$y-y_ {0} = m (x-x_ {0})$

We have the following points:

$(x_ {1}, y_ {1}) :( 2,6)\\(x_ {2}, y_ {2}) :( 4,0)\\m = \frac {y_ {2} -y_ {1}} {x_ {2} -x_ {1}} = \frac {0-6} {4-2} = \frac {-6} {2} = -3$

We chose a point:

$(x_ {0}, y_ {0}) :( 4,0)$

Substituting in the equation we have:

$y-0 = -3 (x-4)\\y = -3 (x-4)$

Finally, the equation is: $y = -3 (x-4)$

Find the critical numbers of the function. (Enter your answers as a comma-separated list. Use n to denote any arbitrary integer

lyudmila [28]

$f(\theta)=10\cos\theta+5\sin^2\theta$

then the derivative is

$f'(\theta)=-10\sin\theta+10\sin\theta\cos\theta$

Critical points occur where $f'(\theta)=0$ . This happens for

$-10\sin\theta+10\sin\theta\cos\theta=0$

$-10\sin\theta(1-\cos\theta)=0$

$\implies-10\sin\theta=0\text{ or }1-\cos\theta=0$

In the first case, we find

$-10\sin\theta=0\implies\sin\theta=0\implies\theta=n\pi$

In the second,

$1-\cos\theta=0\implies\cos\theta=1\implies\theta=2n\pi$

So all the critical points occur at multiples of $\pi$ , or $n\pi$ . (This includes all the even multiples of $\pi$ .)
