Find an equation of the tangent line to f(x) = 5x2 − 2x + 10 at x = 7.

Answer:

y=68x-235

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 5x^2-2x + 10

Differentiate:

\implies f'(x)=10x-2

Substitute x=7 into f'(x):

\implies f'(7)=10(7)-2=68

Therefore, 68 is the gradient of the tangent line at x=7:

\implies y-y_1=68(x-x_1)

when x=7, y=5(7)^2-2(7)+10=241

\implies y-241=68(x-7)

\implies y=68x-235

The sum of two positive numbers is 12. what two numbers will maximize the product g
son4ous [18]

Given two numbers x and y such that:

x + y = 12   ...    (1)


<span>two numbers will maximize the product g</span>

from  equation (1) 

y = 12 - x  

Using this value of y, we represent xy as

xy = f(x)= x(12 - x)

 f(x) = 12x - x^2

Differentiating the above function:

f'(x) = 12 - 2x

Maximum value of f(x) occurs at point for which f'(x) = 0.

Equating f'(x) to 0 we get:

12 - 2x = 0

 2x =  12

> x = 12/2 = 6

Substituting this value of x in equation (2):

y = 12 - 6 = 6

Therefore, value of xy is maximum when:

x = 6 and y = 6

The maximum value of xy = 6*6 = 36

Use the expression 5(6 + 4x) to answer the following: Part A: Describe the two factors in this expression. (4 points) Part B: Ho
Nikolay [14]

Answer:

Part A: The two factors are 6 and 4x. Part B: Question is confusing Part C: The coefficient of the variable is 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

Factors are what gets multiplied to give a product, therefore, 6 and 4x are the products as they are both being multiplied by 5. I don't understand what you are asking for part b. Part C, the coefficient is any number that is multiplied with the variable next to in. For example, in 16x, 16 is the coefficient and x is the variable. In 9y, 9 is the coefficient and y is the variable.

= – 1 is a solution of the equation
Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

substitute -1 into all of the formulas, if both sides are equal, then it is correct, for C:

2(x-2)+6 = 0, sub -1

2(-1-2)+6=0, simplify and work out

2(-3)+6=0

-6+6=0

0=0
