At the indicated point find (a) the slope of the curve and (b) an equation of the tangent line.
f(x)= 6x at (-2,-3)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Slope of the Curve: [tex]f'(x)=\frac{-6}{x^2}[/tex]

Equation of Tangent Line: y + 3 = -3/2(x + 2)

General Formulas and Concepts:

Pre-Algebra

Order of Operations: BPEMDAS

Algebra I

Point-Slope Form: y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)  

x₁ - x coordinate y₁ - y coordinate m - slope

Calculus

The definition of a derivative is the slope of the tangent line.

Basic Power Rule:

f(x) = cxⁿ f’(x) = c·nxⁿ⁻¹

Quotient Rule: [tex]\frac{d}{dx} [\frac{f(x)}{g(x)} ]=\frac{g(x)f'(x)-g'(x)f(x)}{g^2(x)}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

[tex]f(x)=\frac{6}{x}[/tex]

Step 2: Take Derivative

Quotient Rule:                    [tex]f'(x)=\frac{0(x)-6(1)}{x^2}[/tex]Multiply:                              [tex]f'(x)=\frac{0-6}{x^2}[/tex]Subtract:                             [tex]f'(x)=\frac{-6}{x^2}[/tex]

Step 3: Find Instantaneous Derivative

Substitute in x:                     [tex]f'(x)=\frac{-6}{(-2)^2}[/tex]Exponents:                           [tex]f'(x)=\frac{-6}{4}[/tex]Simplify:                               [tex]f'(x)=\frac{-3}{2}[/tex]

This value shows the slope of the tangent line at the exact value of x = 2.

Substitute:                    y + 3 = -3/2(x + 2)

What is the centroid of the triangle?

In science and math, the centroid of a planar figure or firm figure, also known as the point of intersection or center of the figure, is the mean absolute position of all of the other points on the subject's surface.

The centroid of the triangle is given as,

(x, y) = [(x₁ + x₂ + x₃) / 3, (y₁ + y₂ + y₃) / 3]

Use the coordinates J(7, 8), K(1, 2) and L(5, 2) for △JKL. Then the centroid for △JKL is at point M is given as,

(x, y) = [(7 + 1 + 5) / 3, (8 + 2 + 2) / 3]

(x, y) = (13/3, 12/3)

(x, y) = (13/3, 4)

Then the distance between the point JM is calculated as,

D² = (13/3 - 7)² + (4 - 8)²

D² = 7.1111 + 16

D² = 23.11

D = √23.11

D = 4.81 units

The distance between the point JM will be 4.81 units.

Answer: m∠T = 48°

ΔMAT has MA = MT

=> ΔMAT is a isosceles triangle at M

=> ∠A = ∠T = (180° - ∠M)/2

=> x + 20  = (180 - 3x)/2

⇔ 2x + 40 = 180 - 3x

⇔ 5x = 140

⇔ x = 140/5

⇔ x = 28

=> ∠A = ∠T = 28 + 20 = 48°

Find the volume of a pyramid with a square base, where the side length of the base is
14.4 m and the height of the pyramid is 15.3 m. Round your answer to the nearest
tenth of a cubic meter.

Answers

Answer:

Volume of pyramid with square base is 1057.54 m³

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given:

Length of base of pyramid = 14.4 m

Height of pyramid = 15.3 m

We need to find:

Volume of pyramid with square base

The formula used is: [tex]Volume=\frac{1}{3}\times a^2 \times h[/tex]

Where a = base of pyramid and h is height

Putting values and finding volume

[tex]Volume=\frac{1}{3}\times a^2 \times h\\Volume=\frac{1}{3}\times (14.4)^2 \times (15.3)\\Volume=\frac{1}{3}\times 207.36 \times 15.3\\Volume=1057.54 \ m^3[/tex]

So, Volume of pyramid with square base is 1057.54 m³

Answer:

Ray earns $15 an hour for up to 40 hours a week. If he works more than 40 hours a week, he is paid time and a half. That means Ray is paid 150% of his hourly wage for every hour he works over 40 hours.
How much additional money does Ray earn for every hour he works over 40 hours?
Last week, Ray worked 46 hours. He incorrectly calculated he earned $45 of additional pay. What was Ray’s error when he miscalculated his overtime pay? Explain your answer.
How much was Ray’s paycheck for working 46 hours? Show your work.
Would Ray make more money working 40 hours a week for two weeks or working 32 hours one week and 46 hours the next? Justify your solution.

Answers

46 is your correct answer bc 30 plus 16 is 46

For every hour he works over 40 hours, he is paid an additional $7.50.

Ray’s error when he miscalculated his overtime pay is +$45.

How to calculate the error?

Suppose the actual value and the estimated values after the measurement are obtained. Then we have:

Error = Actual value - Estimated value

His normal pay is $15/h

150%/100 = 1.5

Multiply his normal pay by the rate in decimal form;

$15 X 1.5 = $22.5

His OT pay is $22.5/h.

Additional money = (OT pay) - (Normal pay)

= $22.5 - $15

= $7.5

Or $7.5 = $7.50

Thus, For every hour he works over 40 hours, he is paid an additional $7.50.

Ray actual pay for the week was $100 then from the question he incorrectly calculated it as {$100 + $45} = $145 which is $45 above his actual pay.

Error = measured value - actual value.

Error = $145 -$100 =$45.

Since the value $145 is greater than his actual pay $100, we have to include a positive sign to the error $45.

Therefore, Error = +$45.

identify the slope and write the equation of the line .

Answers

Answer:

y=-2x+5; slope is -2

Step-by-step explanation:

slope is rise/run. we can see it rises 2 and goes left one which would give us rise/run=2/-1=-2. that is our slope.

using y=mx+b to write the equation, m is slope and b is the y-int.. we can see that the y-int. is (0,5). we can plug 5 into b.

plugging b and m in we can get the equation: y=-2x+5
