Part A. You have the correct first and second derivative.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Part B. You'll need to be more specific. What I would do is show how the quantity (-2x+1)^4 is always nonnegative. This is because x^4 = (x^2)^2 is always nonnegative. So (-2x+1)^4 >= 0. The coefficient -10a is either positive or negative depending on the value of 'a'. If a > 0, then -10a is negative. Making h ' (x) negative. So in this case, h(x) is monotonically decreasing always. On the flip side, if a < 0, then h ' (x) is monotonically increasing as h ' (x) is positive.
-------------------------------------------------------------
Part C. What this is saying is basically "if we change 'a' and/or 'b', then the extrema will NOT change". So is that the case? Let's find out
To find the relative extrema, aka local extrema, we plug in h ' (x) = 0
h ' (x) = -10a(-2x+1)^4
0 = -10a(-2x+1)^4
so either
-10a = 0 or (-2x+1)^4 = 0
The first part is all we care about. Solving for 'a' gets us a = 0.
But there's a problem. It's clearly stated that 'a' is nonzero. So in any other case, the value of 'a' doesn't lead to altering the path in terms of finding the extrema. We'll focus on solving (-2x+1)^4 = 0 for x. Also, the parameter b is nowhere to be found in h ' (x) so that's out as well.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Split the trapezoid as pictured below
Find its height and the upper base, then find the area of the trapezoid.
There are 3 pieces, two of them are 45°×45° and 30°×60°×90° triangles
- The ratio of sides of a 30°×60°×90° triangle is 1 : √3 : 2
- The legs of a 45x45 triangle are equal
<u>The above mentioned properties give us:</u>
- h = 16/2 = 8 m
- b = 8√3 ≈ 13.85 m
- a = h = 8 m
<u>Now find the area:</u>
- A = 1/2( 13 + 8 + 13.85 + 13)*8 = 191.4 m²
Correct choice is B
Answer:
89
Step-by-step explanation:
it is basically counting by 2s but rather by 20s.
20, 40,60,80
all you do is add a 9 at the end.
The answer will be amount of mass in a certain volume .
