4(3x + 3) = 3(5x + 0.5) What is the value of x?

2 answers:

6 0

X= 3.5
(remove the parentheses)
12x+12=15x+1.5
12x-12=15x+1.5
12x-15x =1.5-12
-3x = -10.5
(divide both sides by -3)
x= 3.5

Find the equation of the tangent line to the curve (a lemniscate)

olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

$m=\frac{9}{13}$ and $b=\frac{40}{13}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of curve is

$2(x^2+y^2)^2=25(x^2-y^2)$

We need to find the equation of the tangent line to the curve at the point (-3, 1).

Differentiate with respect to x.

$2[2(x^2+y^2)\frac{d}{dx}(x^2+y^2)]=25(2x-2y\frac{dy}{dx})$

$4(x^2+y^2)(2x+2y\frac{dy}{dx})=25(2x-2y\frac{dy}{dx})$

The point of tangency is (-3,1). It means the slope of tangent is $\frac{dy}{dx}_{(-3,1)}$ .

Substitute x=-3 and y=1 in the above equation.

$4((-3)^2+(1)^2)(2(-3)+2(1)\frac{dy}{dx})=25(2(-3)-2(1)\frac{dy}{dx})$

$40(-6+2\frac{dy}{dx})=25(-6-2\frac{dy}{dx})$

$-240+80\frac{dy}{dx})=-150-50\frac{dy}{dx}$

$80\frac{dy}{dx}+50\frac{dy}{dx}=-150+240$

$130\frac{dy}{dx}=90$

Divide both sides by 130.

$\frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{9}{13}$

If a line passes through a points $(x_1,y_1)$ with slope m, then the point slope form of the line is

$y-y_1=m(x-x_1)$

The slope of tangent line is $\frac{9}{13}$ and it passes through the point (-3,1). So, the equation of tangent is

$y-1=\frac{9}{13}(x-(-3))$

$y-1=\frac{9}{13}(x)+\frac{27}{13}$

Add 1 on both sides.

$y=\frac{9}{13}(x)+\frac{27}{13}+1$

$y=\frac{9}{13}(x)+\frac{40}{13}$

Therefore, $m=\frac{9}{13}$ and $b=\frac{40}{13}$ .

Help!! Question on probability. Wi give brainliest!!

Aleks [24]

Answer:

$P = \frac{5}{282} = 0.0177$

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to find the total amount of apples in the crate:

Total = 10 + 14 + 4 + 18 = 46 apples

The probability of the first apple being a golden delicious apple is the number of those apples over the total number of apples:

$P(golden) = \frac{N(golden)}{N(total)}$

$P(golden) = \frac{4}{48} = \frac{1}{12}$

Then, the probability of the second apple being a granny Smith apple is the number of those apples over the total number of apples, but now the total number of apples is one less, because one apple was removed from the crate:

$P(granny) = \frac{N(granny)}{N(total)-1}$

$P(granny) = \frac{10}{47}$

The final probability we want is the product of those two probabilities:

$P = P(golden) * P(granny) = \frac{1}{12} \frac{10}{47} = \frac{10}{564} = \frac{5}{282}= 0.0177$

What is the slope-intercept form of the function described by this table?

Vikentia [17]

Y=5x - 3 Because the difference in the y values are 5, the rise is 5. That is the TOP of the slope. The difference in the x values is 1, that is the run or the BOTTOM of the slope. So m = 5/1. Using y = mx + b 2 = 5(1) + b -3 = b Therefore, y = 5x -3

Answer:

16) No

17) (c)

Step-by-step explanation:

For a lot of multiple-choice matrix problems, a simple test is all that is needed to determine the correct answer.

16) The determinant of A is (-2)(-2) -(2)(-3) = 10. So, we expect to see values in the inverse matrix that are 0.2 and 0.3. Alas, they're not there. The matrices are not inverses.

A^-1 = [[-.2, .3][-.2, -.2]]

17) The matrices are both 3×3, so their product is possible (eliminates choice D). The upper left term is different among the answer choices, so we can determine the correct one by computing that term only.

BA=C

c11 = (5)(1) +(7)(5) +(3)(-1) = 5 +35 -3 = 37

This matches the third choice (C).

If you use a calculator to compute the full matrix product, it matches choice C in all details.
