Determine whether the statement is true or false. If f and g are positive increasing functions on an interval I, then fg is incr
Leno4ka [110]

Answer: false

Step-by-step explanation:

If f and g are increasing on I, this implies that f' > 0 on I and g' > 0 on I. That is both f' and g' have a positive slope. However,

Using product rule;

(fg)' = fd(g) + gd(f)

(fg)' = f * g' + f' * g

and although it is given that g' and f' are both positive we don't have any information about the sign of the values of the functions themselves(f and g). Therefore, if at least one of the functions has negative values there is the possibility that the derivative of the product will be negative. For example;

f = x, g = 5x on I = (-5, -2)

f' = 1 and g' =5 both greater than 0

f and g are both lines with positive slopes therefore they are increasing, but f * g = 5x^2 is decreasing on I.

The perimeter of a rectangular construction site is 124 meters. The width is eight meters more than 5 times the length. Find the
tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

The perimeter of a rectangle is the sum of both lengths and both widths, which is equal to 54 meters. Let's call Length L and Width W.

The question is saying this: L = 3 meters + 3(W). We have 2 variables, which means we need at least 2 equations to solve. So far we have one, our second equation is from the perimeter.

2 lengths + 2 Widths = 54. Now, it's just a plug and chug.

2(3 + 3W) + 2W = 54.

6 + 6W + 2W = 54

8W = 48

W=6

L = 3 + 3(6) = 21

To double check: 2(21) + 2(6) = 42 + 12 = 54

The Width is 6 meters, and the Length is 21 meters.

Rama09 [41]
L+S=8, L=8-S

500L+200S=2200, using L from above in this equation gives you:

500(8-S)+200S=2200

4000-500S+200S=2200

4000-300S=2200

-300S=-1800

S=6, and since L=8-S:

L=2

So Rita bought 2 large packets and 6 small packets.
