7.5 / 55 = x / 38
cross multiply
(55)(x) = (7.5)(38)
55x = 285
x = 285/55
x = 5.18 inches <=== or if it needs to be rounded = 5.2 inches

Below is the graph of f ′(x), the derivative of f(x), and has x-intercepts at x = –3, x = 1 and x = 2. There are horizontal tang
mojhsa [17]

Answer:

C. f has a relative maximum at x = 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

A. False.  f(x) is concave down when f"(x) is negative.  f"(x) is the tangent slope of the graph, f'(x).  So f(x) is concave down between x = -1.5 and x = 1.5.

B. False.  f(x) is decreasing when f'(x) is negative.  So f(x) is decreasing in the intervals x < -3 and 1 < x < 2.

C. True.  f(x) has a relative maximum where f'(x) = 0 and changes from + to -.

Explain how to find 27% of 16 using multiplication by
just olya [345]

Answer:

4.32

Step-by-step explanation:

You can multiply 16 by 0.27 to get the answer.

16*0.27=4.32

You can check your work with estimation because 27% is about 1/4 of the number, and just by looking at the number, 4 is 1/4 of the number.

How can the average rate of change be found using a discrete graph?
nekit [7.7K]
In general, the average rate of change of f (x) on the interval a, b is given by f(b) – f(a) / b – a. The average rate of alteration of a function, f (x) on an interval is well-defined to be the variance of the function values at the endpoints of the interim divided by the difference in the x values at the endpoints of the interval. this is also known as the difference quotient that tells how on average, the y values of a function are changing in connection to variations in the x values. A positive or negative rate of change is applicable which match up to an increase or decrease in the y value among the two data points. It is called zero rate of change when a quantity does not change over time.
