Find the minimum value if f(x) = xe^x over [-2,0]

Mathematics

SashulF [63]1 year ago
6 0

Given function:

f(x)=xe^x

The minimum value of the function can be found by setting the first derivative of the function to zero.

f^{\prime}(x)=xe^x+e^x\begin{gathered} xe^x+e^x\text{ = 0} \\ e^x(x\text{ + 1)  = 0} \end{gathered}

Solving for x:

\begin{gathered} x\text{ + 1 = 0} \\ x\text{ = -1} \end{gathered}\begin{gathered} e^x\text{ = 0} \\ \text{Does not exist} \end{gathered}

Substituting the value of x into the original function:

\begin{gathered} f(x=1)=-1\times e^{^{-1}}_{} \\ =\text{ -}0.368 \end{gathered}

Hence, the minimum value in the given range is (-1, -0.368)

Which triangle has hypotenuse Side B F? A cube. The top face has points G, B, C, F and the bottom face has points H, A, D, E. tr
jolli1 [7]

Answer:

ΔBFG

Step-by-step explanation:

Since top face points are

  • G, B, C and F

and bottom face points are

  • H, A, D and E

The side BF can be a hypotenuse of the triangle BFG only

This triangle is on the top face and all the rest given triangles are formed by the points that are not on the same face, therefore BF can't be a hypotenuse of those, as ether B or F is becoming a right angle of the triangles.
