Answer:
- f'(1) exists: f'(1) = -2
- f'(0) DNE
Step-by-step explanation:
<h3>a)</h3>
The function is continuous for x > 0 . The derivative is defined on that interval and is equal to ...
f'(x) = -2x . . . . . for x > 0
Then at x = 1, the derivative is ...
f'(1) = -2(1)
f'(1) = -2
__
<h3>b)</h3>
The function has a jump discontinuity at x=0, so the derivative does not exist at that point. A condition for the existence of the derivative is that the function is continuous at the point of interest.
The answer is three significant figures. The 1 and the 7 are both significant, because they are non-zero quantities.
This is where significant figures gets a little more complicated, because if a zero is used as a placeholder (i.e. 0.00027 cm) then it is insignificant.
But in the case above, the zero isn't being used as a placeholder, and thus, is significant.
<span>The biggest number of groups that can be formed is 6, because six is the greatest common factor of 12 and 42. There will be 2 coaches in each group because 6 x 2 = 12 and 7 players in each group because 7 x 6 = 42.</span>
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Rewrite the quadratic using the method of completing the square:

From this form it is immediately clear that the vertex of the parabola is at x=1 and its y-intercept at -6.
