y = ln x m = dy/dx = 1/x at x = 1, m = 1/1 = 1 so y = x + b at x = 1, y = ln 1 = 0 so 0 = 1*1 + b so b = -1 so L(x) = x -1 and then i believe you would just plug in ln(1.27) for x. good luck

First label your coordinates X1 and y1 and x2 and y2. To get the slope of the line use this: m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1). So m=(6-5)/(9-8). Slope m=1 Then from there choose one of your coordinates let's say we choose (9,6) and we then plug that coordinate and the s...

Maybe just explain a little further for #1.

((-2-(-7))/((-8-(-1)) to find m then plug in m and use one of the coordinates and plug that into y=mx+b

That's not the derivative of the function tho Steve.

Please don't assist me anymore cuz you always seem to make me feel bad. I work hard. Every now and then I get a few problems that I'm unsure of if I'm doing correctly. Geez

no the derivative is not 7e^-7x when the function is e^-x-e^-6x

There is a local minima actually, and 8 is not the local max

I got 2000 ft for smaller value and 3000 ft for larger value. Just wanna verify with someone else if they agree or disagree with my answer

For sides of base I got 20cm and for height I got 10 cm? Anybody agree or disagree with me?

Same as what I got

Anonymous. That did not help at all. I already know part a is 23 m. For part b i had said 10 m, but got that marked wrong. Anybody know how to get what part b is?
9 years ago
i was marked off because it wanted exact answer and the exact answer for part b was (92sqrt(3))/(9+4sqrt(3)) it which is 10.00......

-0.68233 is still wrong. I had tried that one earlier too

That's not correct Steve that's not to six decimal places like the problem says

Nardos, did you post to the wrong question by accident. Because what you posted does not even relate to my question
