Answer 1

Answer:

The correct option is:

The function is decreasing for all real values of x where x < 1.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a function f(x) which is a product of two linear polynomial as:

Now, we know that on multiplying the two linear polynomial we will obtain a quadratic polynomial.

So, the function f(x) will be represented as:

So, we will plot the graph of the function and check which statements about the function hold true.

1)

The function is increasing for all real values of x where x < 0.

This statement is false.

Since we get from the graph that function f(x) is decreasing for x<0.

2)

The function is increasing for all real values of x where x < –1 and where x > 4.

This option is incorrect as the function is decreasing for x<-1

whereas it is increasing for x>4.

3)

The function is decreasing for all real values of x where –1 < x < 4.

This option is incorrect.

Since, the function is both decreasing as well as increasing in the interval (-1,4).

4)

The function is decreasing for all real values of x where x < 1.5.

This option is correct.

Since it could be observed from the graph that the function is decreasing for x<1.5.

What are all of the real roots of the following polynomial? f(x) = x4 - x3 - 13x2 + x + 12

Answers

We can find roots by setting f(x) = 0 --> x^4 - x^3 - 13x^2 + x + 12 = 0.

Factoring f(x) to make things easier for us gives us (x - 1)(x + 1)(x - 4)(x + 3), which, equal to 0, gives us the ability to set each set of parentheses = 0.

x - 1 = 0 gives us x = 1.

x + 1 = 0 --> x = -1.

x - 4 = 0 --> x = 4.

x + 3 = 0 --> x = -3.

our roots are x = 1, -1, 4, and -3.

Explain the procedure (but don't create the graph) for graphing the quadratic function in factored form f(x) = (x - 2)(x + 4) using pencil and paper. Explain the entire process. pleaaassseee help mee.

Answers

Answer:  You will need to find the x-intercepts and the vertex

Step-by-step explanation: Use the information in the factors and some formulae.

The x- intercepts are the points where the parabola crosses the x-axis. The x-axis is where y = 0

Set each factor equal to 0 and solve:

x-2=0, so x = +2 and x +4 = 0, so x = -4    (you would plot these if creating the graph)

To find the vertex you need the Vertex Formula: x = -b/2a

b is the coefficient of the x term in the middle of the quadratic equation; you can just do the O and I parts of FOIL to get b:  -2x + 4x = 2x  You know a = 1 because x²  will have the implied (missing)(1).

Put the numbers in the Formula: x = -b/2a   x = -(2)/2(1)  -2/2 = -1  

-1 is the "x-value" of the vertex.  

The y value is the 'c' in the quadratic formula. You get that from the  L part of FOIL   -2 × 4 = -8 .

So, your coordinates for the vertex:  ( -1, -8 )

If you were creating a graph, you would plot that point, then draw the parabola starting there and through the x-intercepts.  

Find the inverse of the function.
f(x) = x ^3 + 8

Answers

Answer:

The inverse of the function is

[tex] \sqrt[3]{x - 8} [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the inverse of the function we equate f(x) to y

That's

f(x) = y

So we have

[tex]y = {x}^{3} + 8[/tex]

Next interchange the terms x becomes y and y becomes x

That's

[tex] x = {y}^{3} + 8[/tex]

Next make y the subject

That's

[tex] {y}^{3} = x - 8 \\ \\ y = \sqrt[3]{x - 8} [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

x = 3 is a vertical line.

The perpendicular line passes through (0, -4) (x, y)

y = -4

The line is perpendicular, so the line should be also horizontal.

Answer:

y = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

The line x = 3 is a vertical one; any line perpendicular to x = 3 is a horizontal line (which has a zero slope).  

Thus, the desired line is a horizontal one that passes through (0, -4) and is represented by y = -4.

You want to distribute 7 candies to 4 kids. If every kid must receive at least one candy, in how many ways can you do this?

15

Step-by-step explanation:

lets begin to set up this question. i personally find questions like these easiest when i begin to set up ideas to help my brain process it better, for example:

person a

person b

person c

person d

we know that each (person) must receive at least 1 candy. we also know that we have 7 candies. therefore if we want do draw this out :

person a- 1

person b- 1

person c- 1

person d -1

notice that we now have given away 4 of the 7 candies. now we have 3 candies left. we can simply:

person a- 2

person b-2

person c-2

person d- 1

but, keep in mind that there are still many more ways that we can distribute the candies to other kids. the question we are asked is how may ways can we do this. since i have already illustrated the question, you can either learn how to put this into an equation, or experiment how many variations there are. the answer, either way is 15.

I am not good at explainig at all and im not sure how to explain but I had this question

Cecilia is 19 m behind the Arman.


Arman, Babken, and Cecilia decided to compete in a 100m run.
When Arman crossed the finish line, Babken was 10m behind him.
When Babken crossed the finish line, Cecilia was 10m behind him.


What are percentage?

percentage is the ratio of composition of matter to the overall composition of matter multiplied by 100.

Here,
When Babken is 10m behind the Arman, distance covered by babken is 90 m. Cecilia is 10 m behind when Babken cross the finish line implies Cecilia cover 90% of Babken covered distance.
So Cecilia covers 90% of Babken covered distance when Arman crossed finish line.


As arman crossed finish line Cecilia is at  = 90% of run covered by babken, 
= 90 * 90/100
= 81
Now, Cecilia behind Arman when he crossed the finish line = 100-81
=19

Thus, Cecilia is 19 m behind the Arman.

$6,000 dollars is invested in two different accounts earning 3% and 5% interest. At the end of one year, the two accounts earned $220 in interest. How much money was invested at 3%? $2,000 $3,000 $4,000

Answers

Answer:

money invested at 3% is $4000

Step-by-step explanation:

let the money invested in 3% account be x

then money invested in 5% account = 6000 - x

we know interest = p*r*t/100

p is the principle amount invested

here t = 1 year

interest on 3% money

interest= x*3*1/100 = 3x/100

interest on 5% money

interest= (6000-x)*5*1/100

Total interest earned on both the account

3x/100 + 5(6000-x)/100 = (3x + 30,000 - 5x)/100 =( 30000-2x)/100

given that total interest earned = $220

thus

( 30000-2x)/100 = 220

=> 30000-2x = 220*100= 22,000

=> -2x = 22,000- 30,000

=> x = -8000/-2 = 4000

if a watch is losing 1.5 minutes for every 12 hours that go by, how many minutes will it lose in one week?​

Answers

Hey there! :)

Answer:

21 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Begin by calculating the number of 12 hour periods in a week.

Each day contains two 12 hour periods. (24 hours/12 = 2)

There are 7 days in a week, therefore:

2 × 7 = 14 times the watch will lose minutes.

Multiply to find the total number of minutes lost:

14 × 1.5 = 21 minutes.

Answer:

21 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 24 hours in one day, and 7 days per week.  Thus there are

(24)(7), or 168, hours in one week, or 14 - 12-hour periods.

Thus, we multiply 14 - 12-hr periods to answer this question:

1.5 minutes / 14 - 12-hour periods)= 21 minutes will be lost in one week.
