Answer:
k = 11.
Step-by-step explanation:
y = x^2 - 5x + k
dy/dx = 2x - 5 = the slope of the tangent to the curve
The slope of the normal = -1/(2x - 5)
The line 3y + x =25 is normal to the curve so finding its slope:
3y = 25 - x
y = -1/3 x + 25/3 <------- Slope is -1/3
So at the point of intersection with the curve, if the line is normal to the curve:
-1/3 = -1 / (2x - 5)
2x - 5 = 3 giving x = 4.
Substituting for x in y = x^2 - 5x + k:
When x = 4, y = (4)^2 - 5*4 + k
y = 16 - 20 + k
so y = k - 4.
From the equation y = -1/3 x + 25/3, at x = 4
y = (-1/3)*4 + 25/3 = 21/3 = 7.
So y = k - 4 = 7
k = 7 + 4 = 11.
The coordinate of the image after being reflected is R(3,4).
When dealing with reflection of a line or shape or a figure in the coordinate plane, especially if it is reflected across the y- axis, you just have to give the opposite of the given (original) x- coordinate in order to give a symmetric figure.

Answer: 2
<u>Explanation:</u>
A pond had 60 fish but 10 were added so now the pond has 70 fish.
The probability of choosing a carp is 1/2 so
= 35 are now carp.
There were 27 carp and now there are 35 carp so 8 carp were added.
10 fish were added and 8 of them were carp so 2 of them were tench.
