<h3>
Answer: 11.9 cm</h3>
Work Shown:
|x-12.2| = 0.3
x-12.2 = -0.3 or x-12.2 = 0.3
x = -0.3+12.2 or x = 0.3+12.2
x = 11.9 or x = 12.5
The min length is 11.9 cm and the max length is 12.5 cm
Subtracting 12.2 from either x value leads to a positive difference of 0.3 which is the margin of error.
4n² - 15n + 14<span> is always the product of two numbers, for it to be prime number, one of these factors must be either 1 or -1.
Case n - 2 = 1
That would be n = 3
Then </span>4n² - 15n + 14<span> = 5 , which is prime.
Case n - 2 = -1
That would be n = 1
Then </span>4n<span>² - 15n + 14 = 3, which is also prime.
Case 4n - 7 = 1
That would be n = 2 and that makes other factor (n-2) zero so it's not prime
Case 4n-7 = -1
That would be n = 3/2 which is not integer, so </span>4n<span>² - 15n + 14 will not be interger.
For any other n values, </span>4n<span>² - 15n + 14 will be composite number since it is product of two factors.
Therefore we are left with n = 1 and n = 3; only two values of n.</span>
The extreme values of the function f(x) = x - 4sqrt(x) occur at the values of x for which f'(x) = 0
f'(x) = 1 - 2/sqrt(x) = 0
sqrt(x) - 2 = 0
sqrt(x) = 2
x = 4
To check for minimum or maximum,
f''(x) = 1/(sqrt(x))^3 = 1/(sqrt(4))^3 = 1/(2^3) = 1/8 => the point is a minimum.
Therefore, the minimum value = f(4) = 4 - 4sqrt(4) = 4 - 4(2) = 4 - 8 = -4 and occurs at x = 4.
Answer:
sum=n+m=-2+5=3 is a answer
The top portion of this graph would be y = 4
The bottom portion would be y = x - 1
In order to find both of these, we have to look at them separately. Let's start with the flat line between 1 and -1. Since it is between those numbers, we know this one goes on top. We also know that since the line is horizontal, that the equation must be y = the number that it sits at. This is the definition of a horizontal line. Since the line is at 4, we get y = 4.
For the sloped portion, we have to pick two points and find the equation of the line. Let's use (3, 2) and (5, 4). We must start by finding slope (m)
m = (y1 - y2)/(x1 - x2)
m = (4 - 2)(5 - 3)
m = 2/2
m = 1
So we know slope to equal 1. Now we can use a point and slope intercept form to find the y-intercept (b)
y = mx + b
4 = 1(5) + b
4 = 5 + b
-1 = b
Now put them together in an equation for the bottom part: y = x - 1
