Answer:

Correct option is:

multiply the previous term by 2; –80, –160

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a pattern:

–5, –10, –20, –40, . . .

- 10= -5×2

-20= -10×2

-40= -20×2

Hence, next term is obtained by multiplying the previous term by 2

Next term= -40×2= -80

Next term= -80×2= -160

Hence,

Pattern is: multiply the previous term by 2

Next two numbers in the pattern are: –80, –160

Step-by-step explanation:

It appears that given geometrical shape is a HEXA-DECAGON or a 16 sided polygon.

Measure of one interior angle of hexa-decagon can be given as:

$\frac{(n - 2) \times 180 \degree}{n} \\ \\ = \frac{(16 - 2) \times 180 \degree}{16} \\ \\ = \frac{14 \times 45 \degree}{4} \\ \\ = \frac{7 \times 45 \degree}{2} \\ \\ = \frac{315 \degree}{2} \\ \\ = 157.5\degree \\$

Find the derivative.

Answer:

$\displaystyle f'(x) = \bigg( \frac{1}{2\sqrt{x}} - \sqrt{x} \bigg)e^\big{-x}$

General Formulas and Concepts:

Derivatives
Derivative Notation

Basic Power Rule:

f(x) = cxⁿ
f’(x) = c·nxⁿ⁻¹

Derivative Rule [Quotient Rule]: $\displaystyle \frac{d}{dx} [\frac{f(x)}{g(x)} ]=\frac{g(x)f'(x)-g'(x)f(x)}{g^2(x)}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

Identify

$\displaystyle f(x) = \frac{\sqrt{x}}{e^x}$

Step 2: Differentiate

Derivative Rule [Quotient Rule]: $\displaystyle f'(x) = \frac{(\sqrt{x})'e^x - \sqrt{x}(e^x)'}{(e^x)^2}$
Basic Power Rule: $\displaystyle f'(x) = \frac{\frac{e^x}{2\sqrt{x}} - \sqrt{x}(e^x)'}{(e^x)^2}$
Exponential Differentiation: $\displaystyle f'(x) = \frac{\frac{e^x}{2\sqrt{x}} - \sqrt{x}e^x}{(e^x)^2}$
Simplify: $\displaystyle f'(x) = \frac{\frac{e^x}{2\sqrt{x}} - \sqrt{x}e^x}{e^{2x}}$
Rewrite: $\displaystyle f'(x) = \bigg( \frac{e^x}{2\sqrt{x}} - \sqrt{x}e^x \bigg) e^{-2x}$
Factor: $\displaystyle f'(x) = \bigg( \frac{1}{2\sqrt{x}} - \sqrt{x} \bigg)e^\big{-x}$
