We will see that f'(x) > 0, which means that f(x) is an increasing function.

<h3>How to prove that the function is increasing?</h3>

For any function f(x), if f'(x) > 0, then f(x) is increasing for any value of x.

Here we have the cubic function:

f(x) = x³ + 4x

If we differentiate this, we get:

f'(x) = df(x)/dx = 3x² + 4.

And notice that x² is always positive, then f'(x) > 0, which means that f(x) is an increasing function.

An acre measures 4840 square yards. In a city, a lot on which a single-
belka [17]

The lot is <u>9.2% of the an acre.</u>

<u>Given:</u>

Area of an acre = 4840 sq. yards

Area of lot = 40 by 100 ft = 40 ]\times 100 = 4,000 $ ft^{2}

Convert the area of the lot to feet (9 ft^{2} = yd^{2}):

<em>Therefore:</em>

Area of lot = \frac{4,000}{9} = 444.4 $ yd^{2}

Percentage occupied by the lot = area of lot / area of acre x 100

= \frac{444.4}{4840} \times 100\\\= 9.2

The lot therefore is <u>9.2% of the an acre</u>.

In an isosceles triangle two sides are equal. The third side is two less than twice the length of the two equal sides. The perim
pogonyaev

Answer:

The equal sides' length = 10

Third side length = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the two equal sides' length be "x"

Let the third side length be "y"

Third side (y) is 2 LESS THAN TWICE the equal side, so we can write:

y = 2x - 2

The perimeter is 38. The perimeters is the sum of all three sides. So we can write:

x + x + y = 38

Replacing y with 2nd equation, we have:

x + x + (2x - 2) = 38

Now, we can solve this for x first:

x + x + (2x - 2) = 38\\x+x+2x-2=38\\4x=38+2\\4x=40\\x=10

Now, y is:

y = 2x - 2

y = 2(10) - 2

y = 20 - 2

y = 18

The equal sides' length = 10

Third side length = 18

Given the following diagram, find the required measure.
Zielflug [23.3K]

Answer:

∠ 5 = 40°

Step-by-step explanation:

∠ 1 and ∠ 2 are adjacent angles and supplementary, thus

∠ 2 = 180° - ∠ 1 = 180° - 140° = 40°

∠ 5 and ∠ 2 are alternate angles and congruent , thus

∠ 5 = 40°
