(a) Find the slope of the curve y= x^2 - 2x - 3 at the point ​P(2,​ -3​) by finding the limit of the secant slopes through point P.
(b) Find an equation of the tangent line to the curve at P(2, -3)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Part A)

The slope is two.

Part B)

[tex]\displaystyle y = 2x - 7[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A)

We want to find the slope of the curve:

[tex]\displaystyle y = x^2 - 2x - 3[/tex]

At the point P(2, -3) by using the limit of the secant slopes through point P.

To find the limit of the secant slopes, we can use the difference quotient. Recall that:

[tex]\displaystyle f'(x) = \lim_{h \to 0} \frac{f(x+h) - f(x)}{h}[/tex]

Since we want to find the slope of the curve at P(2, -3), x = 2.

Substitute:

[tex]\displaystyle f'(2) = \lim_{h \to 0} \frac{f(2 + h) - f(2)}{h}[/tex]

Simplify. Note that f(2) = -3. Hence:

[tex]\displaystyle \begin{aligned} f'(2) &= \lim_{h\to 0} \frac{\left[(2+h)^2 - 2(2+h) - 3\right] - \left[-3\right]}{h} \\ \\ &=\lim_{h \to 0}\frac{(4 + 4h + h^2)+(-4-2h)+(0)}{h} \\ \\ &= \lim_{h\to 0} \frac{h^2+2h}{h}\\ \\&=\lim_{h\to 0} h + 2 \\ \\ &= (0) + 2 \\ &= 2\end{aligned}[/tex]

(Note: I evaluated the limit using direct substitution.)

Hence, the slope of the curve at the point P(2, -3) is two.

Part B)

Since the slope of the curve at point P is two, the slope of the tangent line is also two.

And since we know it passes through the point (2, -3), we can consider using the point-slope form:

[tex]\displaystyle y - y_1 = m(x-x_1)[/tex]

Substitute. m = 2. Therefore, our equation is:

[tex]\displaystyle y + 3 = 2(x-2)[/tex]

We can rewrite this into slope-intercept if desired:

[tex]\displaystyle y = 2x - 7[/tex]

We can verify this by graphing. This is shown below:

what passes through the points (-1/2 4) and (1/2 6). show your work​

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of line which passes through these points is determined by:

p(x1,y1)=(-1/2,4) p(x2,y2)=(1/2,6)

[tex] \frac{y - y1}{y2 - y1} = \frac{x - x1}{x2 - x1} \\ \frac{y - 4}{6 - 4} = \frac{x + \frac{ 1}{2} }{ \frac{1}{2} + \frac{1}{2} } \\ \frac{y - 4}{2} = \frac{2x + 1}{2} \\ 2(2x + 1) = 2(y - 4) \\ 4x + 2 = 2y - 8 \\ 4x - 2y + 2 + 8 = 0 \\ 4x - 2y + 10 = 0[/tex]

a line passes through the points 3, 0 and 4, 1. what is the y-intercept of the line

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  (0, -3)

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope is the same for any segment of the line. The slope from (0, y) to (3, 0) is the same as from (4, 1) to (3, 0).

  Δy/Δx = (y -0)/(0 -3) = (1 -0)/(4 -3)

  y = -3(1/1) = -3 . . . . . multiply by -3

The y-intercept is (0, -3).

try It would be number 81

Step-by-step explanation:

Abc= 110

ceo=70

dbe=110 or 120

and abe= 60 70 or 81

Answer:

ABC=112 degrees

DBE=112 degrees

ABE=68 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

CBD=ABE

ABE=68 degrees

First let's take these as X,

ABC=DBE=X(Vertically opposite angles)

ABC+DBE+CBD+ABE=360(angles around a point)

   x  + x     +68   +68  =360

      2x        +136        =360

                       2x       =360-136

                       2x       =  224

                             x    =112 degrees

therefore;

   ABC=112 degrees

   DBE=112 degrees

If a function is defined by the equation y = 1/2x -3/2 , which equation defines the inverse of this function?

Answers

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Rearrange the equation making x the subject

y = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] x - [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex] ( multiply through by 2 to clear the fractions )

2y = x - 3 ( add 3 to both sides )

2y + 3 = x

Change y back into terms of x with x being the inverse function, that is

y = 2x + 3 → B
