Answer:
B. 3.
Step-by-step explanation:
OK lets try again.
The slope of the secant = slope of the tangent at a certain point ( The Mean Value Theorem).
Slope of the secant = f(5) - f(2) / (5 - 2)
= [(25-3) / (5-1) - (4-3) / (2-1)] / 3
= (22/4 - 1) / 3
= 9/2 / 3
= 9/6
= 3/2.
The derivative at c = the slope of the tangent at c.
Finding the derivative:
f'(x) = [2x(x - 1) - (x^2 - 3) ]/ (x - 1)^2 (where x = c).
= (x^2 - 2x + 3)/ (x - 1)^2 = the slope.
So equating the slopes:
(x^2 - 2x + 3) / (x - 1)^2 = 3/2
2x^2 - 4x + 6 = 3x^2 - 6x + 3
x^2 - 2x - 3 = 0
(x - 3)(x + 1) = 90
x = 3 , -1
x can't be -1 because we are working between the values 2 and 5 so
x = c = 3.
It looks like your question is incomplete. I believe you also have options to pick which graph is correct. However, I can still give you the information you are looking for.
The slope of the line is -1.2
The Y-intersect is (0, 4)
I have also attached an image of what the graph would look like.
Hope this helps.
Answer:
3) yes, it is in the shaded region
4) no, it lies on a less-than line
5) yes, it lies on a greater-than-or-equal-to line
6) no, it isnt in the shaded region
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
When to lines intersect they create four angles. Each angle is opposite to another and form a pair of what are called opposite angles. Angles a and c are opposite angles. Angles b and d are opposite angles. Opposite angles are equal.
Answer:
Choice A is the correct answer
Step-by-step explanation:
To evaluate the limits, we simply perform direct substitution; substitute -infinity into each expression in the alternatives and then simplify the expression. Notice that only the expressions in alternative A will fit this criteria since they will be tending to -infinity as x approaches -infinity.
