I need to know what a slope is and how to determine it.​

Answers

Answer 1

Key:

m = slope

(x₁, y₁) coordinates of the first, lower point.

(x₂, y₂) coordinates of the second, higher point.

Answer:

In simple terms, slope is how steep a line is.

You can determine slope by:

[tex]\frac{rise}{run}[/tex]

Here is the full formula for slope:

[tex]m = \frac{y_{2} - y_{1}}{x_{2} - x_1}[/tex]

1/5

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\frac{2-1}{3--2} = \frac{1}{5}[/tex]

Answer: 1/5

Step-by-step explanation: Following our hint,

let's start with the slope formula.

m = y₂ - y₁ / x₂ - x₁

We take the second y minus the first y over the second x minus the first x.

So we have m = 2 - 1 / 3 - (-2) or 1 / 5.

So our slope is 1/5.

1. Determine the intervals on which each function is increasing or
decreasing
(a) f(x) = x^3 - 11/2x^2 - 4x

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\text{$f(x)$ is increasing for $(-\infty, -\frac{1}{3})$ and $(4, \infty)$} \\ \text{$f(x)$ is decreasing for $(-\frac{1}{3}, 4)$}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the function:

[tex]f(x)=x^3-\frac{11}{2}x^2-4x[/tex]

And we want to determine the intervals for which the function is increasing or decreasing.

We will need to first find the critical points of the function. Note that our original function is continuous across the entire x-axis.

To find the critical points, we need to find the first derivative and then solve for the x. So:

[tex]f^\prime(x)=\frac{d}{dx}[x^3-\frac{11}{2}x^2-4x][/tex]

Differentiate:

[tex]f^\prime(x)=(3x^2)-\frac{11}{2}(2x)-(4) \\ f^\prime(x)=3x^2-11x-4[/tex]

Set the derivative equal to 0 and solve for x:

[tex]0=3x^2-11x-4[/tex]

Factor:

[tex]0=3x^2-12x+x-4 \\ 0=3x(x-4)+(x-4) \\ 0=(3x+1)(x-4)[/tex]

Zero Product Property:

[tex]3x+1=0\text{ or } x-4=0 \\ x=-\frac{1}{3}\text{ or } x=4[/tex]

Therefore, our critical points are -1/3 and 4.

We can thus sketch the following number line:

<————-(-1/3)——————————————(4)—————>

Now, let’s test values for the three intervals: less than -1/3, between -1/3 and 4, and greater than 4.

For less then -1/3, we can use -1. So, substitute -1 for x for our first derivative and see which we get:

[tex]f^\prime(-1)=3(-1)^2-11(-1)-4=3+11-4=10>0[/tex]

The result is positive.

Therefore, for all numbers less than -1/3,f(x) is increasing (since its derivative is positive).

For between -1/3 and 4, we can use 0. Substitute 0 for our derivative:

[tex]f^\prime(0)=3(0)^2-11(0)-4=-4<0[/tex]

The result is negative.

Therefore, for all numbers between -1/3 and 4, f(x) is decreasing (since its derivative is negative).

And finally, for greater than 4, we can use 5:

[tex]f^\prime(5)=3(5)^2-11(5)-4=16>0[/tex]

The result is positive.

Therefore, for all numbers greater than 4, f(x) is increasing (since its derivative is positive.

Therefore:

[tex]\text{$f(x)$ is increasing for $x<-\frac{1}{3}$ and $x>4$}\\ \text{ $f(x)$ is decreasing for $-\frac{1}{3}<x<4$}[/tex]

In interval notation:

[tex]\text{$f(x)$ is increasing for $(-\infty, -\frac{1}{3})$ and $(4, \infty)$} \\ \text{$f(x)$ is decreasing for $(-\frac{1}{3}, 4)$}[/tex]

Determine an expression for dy
dx given that x = sin3
(t)andy = cos3
(t)

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\frac{dy}{dx} =-\sqrt[3]{\frac{y}{x} }[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall that using the chain rule we can state:

[tex]\frac{dy}{dt} =\frac{dy}{dx}*\frac{dx}{dt}[/tex]

and therefore solve for dy/dx as long as dx/dt is different from zero.

Then we find dy/dt  and dx/dt,

Given that

[tex]x=sin^3(t)\\dx/dt = 3 sin^2(t)* cos(t)[/tex]

And similarly:

[tex]y=cos^3(t)\\dy/dt=-3\,cos^2(t)*sin(t)[/tex]

Therefore, dy/dx can be determined by the quotient of the expressions we just found:

[tex]\frac{dy}{dx} =\frac{dy/dt}{dx/dt} =\frac{-3\,cos^2(t)*sin(t)}{3\,sin^2(t)*cos(t)} =-\frac{cos(t)}{sin(t)}[/tex]

now notice that we can find   [tex]cos(t) = \sqrt[3]{y}[/tex]  from the expression for y,

and   [tex]sin(t) = \sqrt[3]{x}[/tex]  from its expression for x.

Therefore dy/dx can be written in terms of x and y as:

[tex]\frac{dy}{dx} =-\frac{cos(t)}{sin(t)}=-\sqrt[3]{\frac{y}{x} }[/tex]

Can someone solve this equation for me? 34 + 12x = 3x - 22
Thanks. Any help is appreciated! :)

Answers

Answer: x= -56/9

Step-by-step explanation:

34+12x=3x-22

Subtract 12x from both sides

34=-9x-22

Add 22 to both sides

56=-9x

Divide -9 by both sides to get x alone

56/-9=x

So

x=-56/9
