Answer:

A function is increasing when the gradient is positive

A function is decreasing when the gradient is negative

<u>Question 7</u>

If you draw a tangent to the curve in the interval x < -2 then the tangent will have a positive gradient, and so the function is increasing in this interval.

If you draw a tangent to the curve in the interval x > -2 then the tangent will have a negative gradient, and so the function is decreasing in this interval.

If you draw a tangent to the curve at the vertex of the parabola, it will be a horizontal line, and so the gradient at x = -2 will be zero.

The function is increasing when x < -2

(- \infty,-2)

The function is decreasing when x > -2

(-2, \infty)

<u>Additional information</u>

We can actually determine the intervals where the function is increasing and decreasing by differentiating the function.

The equation of this graph is:

f(x)=-2x^2-8x-8

\implies f'(x)=-4x-8

The function is increasing when f'(x) > 0

\implies -4x-8 > 0

\implies -4x > 8

\implies x < -2

The function is decreasing when f'(x) < 0

\implies -4x-8 < 0

\implies -4x < 8

\implies x > -2

This concurs with the observations made from the graph.

<u>Question 8</u>

This is a straight line graph. The gradient is negative, so:

The function is decreasing for all real values of x

(- \infty,+ \infty)

But if they want the interval for the grid only, it would be -4 ≤ x ≤ 1

[-4,1]

<u>Question 9</u>

If you draw a tangent to the curve in the interval x < -1 then the tangent will have a negative gradient, and so the function is decreasing in this interval.

If you draw a tangent to the curve in the interval x > -1 then the tangent will have a positive gradient, and so the function is increasing in this interval.

If you draw a tangent to the curve at the vertex of the parabola, it will be a horizontal line, and so the gradient at x = -1 will be zero.

The function is decreasing when x < -1

(- \infty,-1)

The function is increasing when x > -1

(-1, \infty)

Pls help me!! I just need help on both of the following questions, a-d on each
Ymorist [56]
I'll do a and e on the first one to show you how to do it

Then See if you can do the rest

a. 6(-3)<span><span>
</span></span>
When your multiplying or dividing with negative numbers; If one of your numbers is negative like the one above, your answer will be negative

So 6 × 3 = 18 ; but since there is a negative on the 3 your answer will be -18

e. -20 ÷ 5

same for this; 20 ÷ 5 = 4, but since the 20 is negative the answer will be <span>-4

You do b, c, d, and f on the first question. Tell me what you get and we'll go from there

</span>Now for the second question <span>

</span>I will do a and d to show you how to do this then you do the rest<span> (I'm inserting a picture with these)

</span>a. 4(-2 \frac{1}{3}) + 7 \frac{1}{6}
First go ahead and turn the fractions into improper fractions, this makes them a bit easier to work with. When multiplying fractions; they do not need a common denominator, all you do is multiply top by top and bottom by bottom.<span>
However, when you add and subtract fractions you MUST have a common denominator

</span>d. (-4.25)(2) + (-4.25)(-2)
remember from the first problem a negative times a positive gives you a negative<span>

but when you times a negative by a negative you get a positive


Now you try b and c; let me know what you get, and we'll go from there!

Find KL and show work
MissTica

Answer:

<u>Secant</u>: a straight line that intersects a circle at two points.

<u>Intersecting Secants Theorem</u>

If two secant segments are drawn to the circle from one exterior point, the product of the measures of one secant segment and its external part is equal to the product of the measures of the other secant segment and its external part.

From inspection of the given diagram:

  • M = Exterior point
  • MK = secant segment and ML is its external part
  • MS = secant segment and MN is its external part

Therefore:

⇒ ML · MK = MN · MS

Given:

  • MK = (x + 15) + 6 = x + 21
  • ML = 6
  • MS = 7 + 11 = 18
  • MN = 7

Substituting the given values into the formula and solving for x:

⇒ ML · MK = MN · MS

⇒ 6(x + 21) = 7 · 18

⇒ 6x + 126 = 126

⇒ 6x = 0

⇒ x = 0

Substituting the found value of x into the expression for KL:

⇒ KL = x + 15

⇒ KL = 0 + 15

⇒ KL = 15
