Answer:
3
Step-by-step explanation:
Vertical angles share a vertex point, and have opposite rays for sides. In short, they are across the point of intersection from each other. Vertical angles do not have a common side (they are <em>not</em> adjacent).
The first part of the problem is to identify angle NCA. That is shown in red in the attachment. The vertical angle is across the point of intersection. It is angle 3.
Using derivatives, it is found that the x-values in which the slope belong to the interval (-1,1) are in the following interval:
(-15,-10).
<h3>What is the slope of the tangent line to a function f(x) at point x = x0?</h3>It is given by the derivative at x = x0, that is:
.
In this problem, the function is:
Hence the derivative is:
For a slope of -1, we have that:
0.4x + 5 = -1
0.4x = -6
x = -15.
For a slope of 1, we have that:
0.4x + 5 = 1.
0.4x = -4
x = -10
Hence the interval is:
(-15,-10).
