What is the gradient of the line passing through the point (1,2) and (5,5)? What is the equation of this line? What is the equation of the line perpendicular to this line that passes through the origin (0,0)?

Gradient of initial line = 3/4 Equation of initial line : y= 3/4x + 5/4 (4y = 3x + 5) Equation of perpendicular line : y= -4/3x

a.) simplify and expand (x+3)(2x+5) b.) differentiate (x+3)(2x+5) c.) where does this function intercept the x and y axis? d.) does this function have any turning points? if so where?

a.) simplify and expand (x+3)(2x+5) Expand using "crab claw" (better known as foil) => 2x^2 + 5x + 6x + 15 Simplify => 2x^2 +11x + 15 b.) differentiate (x+3)(2x+5) Using part a, dy/dx= 4x +11...
