Answer:

Janelle's conclusion is correct, because the value of x is 15

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the value of x

we know that

m∠MKJ=m∠LKM+m∠LKJ

substitute the given values and solve for x

80°=(2x+10)°+(3x-5)°

80=5x+5

5x=80-5

5x=75

x=15

step 2

Find the value of x assuming that KL bisect the angle MKJ

m∠LKM=m∠LKJ

(2x+10)°=(3x-5)°

3x-2x=10+5

x=15

therefore

Answer:

Option c

Step-by-step explanation:

Measure of angle MKJ = 80°

Since KL is the bisector of ∠MKJ

Therefore, [m∠(MKJ) = m∠(MKL) + m∠(LKJ)]

80° = m∠(MKL) + m∠(LKJ)

∠MKL = (2x+10)° and ∠(LKJ) = (3x-5)° [given in the figure]

Therefore, (2x-10) + (3x-5) = 80

5x + 5 = 80

5x = 80 - 5

5x = 75

x = $\frac{75}{5}$

x = 15

That means for x = 15 line segment KL is the bisector of ∠MKJ.

Option C will be the answer.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that there is a function of x,

$f(x) = 2sin x + 2cos x,0\leq x\leq 2\pi$

Let us find first and second derivative for f(x)

$f'(x) = 2cosx -2sinx\\f"(x) = -2sinx-2cosx$

When f'(x) =0 we have tanx = 1 and hence

a) f'(x) >0 for I and III quadrant

Hence increasing in $(0, \pi/2) U(\pi,3\pi/2)\\$

and decreasing in $(\pi/2, \pi)U(3\pi/2,2\pi)$

$x=\frac{\pi}{4}, \frac{3\pi}{4}$

$f"(\pi/4)$

Hence f has a maxima at x = pi/4 and minima at x = 3pi/4

b) Maximum value = $2sin \pi/4+2cos \pi/4 =2\sqrt{2}$

Minimum value = $2sin 3\pi/4+2cos 3\pi/4 =-2\sqrt{2}$

f"(x) =0 gives tanx =-1

$x= 3\pi/4, 7\pi/4$

are points of inflection.

concave up in (3pi/4,7pi/4)

and concave down in (0,3pi/4)U(7pi/4,2pi)
