Answer:

\sf A) \ (-4, \ 0) \ and \ \  [\dfrac{5}{2} , \ 0]

Explanation:

Given function: f(x) = -2x² - 3x + 20

To find the x-intercepts of a function, f(x) = 0

=================

-2x² - 3x + 20 = f(x)

-2x² - 3x + 20 = 0

-2x² - 8x + 5x + 20 = 0

-2x(x + 4) + 5(x + 4) = 0

(-2x + 5) (x + 4) = 0

-2x + 5 = 0, x + 4 = 0

-2x = -5, x = -4

x = -5/-2,x = -4

x = 5/2, x= -4

Coordinates: (-4, 0), (5/2, 0)

What are the approximate values of the minimum and maximum points of f(x) = x5 − 10x3 + 9x on [-3,3]? A. maximum point: (–2.4, 3
slava [35]

Answer:

(-2.4, 37.014)

Step-by-step explanation:

We are not told how to approach this problem.  

One way would be to graph f(x) = x^5 − 10x^3 + 9x on [-3,3] and then to estimate the max and min of this function on this interval visually.  A good graph done on a graphing calculator would be sufficient info for this estimation.  My graph, on my TI83 calculator, shows that the relative minimum value of f(x) on this interval is between x=2 and x=3 and is approx. -37; the relative maximum value is between x= -3 and x = -2 and is approx. +37.  

Thus, we choose Answer A as closest approx. values of the min and max points on [-3,3].  In Answer A, the max is at (-2.4, 37.014) and the min at (2.4, -37.014.

Optional:  Another approach would be to use calculus:  we'd differentiate f(x) = x^5 − 10x^3 + 9x, set the resulting derivative = to 0 and solve the resulting equation for x.  There would be four x-values, which we'd call "critical values."

Find the distance between the points given.<br><br> (2, 2) and (5, 5)
mario62 [17]
Distance between two points, d, is given by
d= \sqrt{ ( x_{2} - x_{1}) ^{2} + (y_{2} - y_{1}) ^{2} }&#10;
where: (x1, y1) = (2, 2) and (x2, y2) = (5, 5)
d= &#10;\sqrt{ ( 5 - 2) ^{2} + (5 - 2) ^{2} } \\ d= \sqrt{ (3)^{2} + 3^{2} }  &#10;\\ d= \sqrt{9+9}  \\ d= \sqrt{18}  \\ d=3\sqrt{2} \ units
