Answer:
Only one extreme value of f(x) is possible.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the quadratic function of independent variable x which is f(x) = x² - 7x - 6 ......(1)
Now. the condition for extreme values of f(x) is 
Hence, differentiating both sides of equation (1) with respect to x, we get
= 0
⇒ x = 3.5.
So there is only one value of x for which f(x) has extreme value which is x = 3.5.
Therefore, only one extreme value of the given function is possible. (Answer)
Answer:
A. Between 3.0 and 3.5 and between 4.0 and 4.5
Step-by-step explanation:
The zeroes of a function occur whenever a value of x returns zero. To predict where the zeroes lie, determine the interval(s) where the function crosses the x-axis. This occurs when either 
goes from a negative value to a positive value or vice versa.
From 
and 
, the y-values go from 4.0 (positive) to -0.2 (negative), respectively. Therefore, there must be a zero in this interval.
From 
and 
, the y-values go from -0.8 (negative) to 0.1 (positive), respectively. Therefore, there must also be a zero in this interval.
Thus, the zeros of this function occur between 3.0 and 3.5 and between 4.0 and 4.5, leading to answer choice A.
Answer:
a=2
Step-by-step explanation:
-15a-19-35=-84
-15a-19=-49
-15a=-30
a=2
The tangent and cotangent functions of the angle are related such that one is the reciprocal of the other. From the given tan theta = 11 / 60. The reciprocal of this number is 60 / 11. This value is also the cotangent of the angle. Thus, the cotangent angle theta is 60 / 11.
Well I don't know.
Let's think about it:
-- There are 6 possibilities for each role.
So 36 possibilities for 2 rolls.
Doesn't take us anywhere.
New direction:
-- If the first roll is odd, then you need another odd on the second one.
-- If the first roll is even, then you need another even on the second one.
This may be the key, right here !
-- The die has 3 odds and 3 evens.
-- Probability of an odd followed by another odd = (1/2) x (1/2) = 1/4
-- Probability of an even followed by another even = (1/2) x (1/2) = 1/4
I'm sure this is it. I'm a little shaky on how to combine those 2 probs.
Ah hah !
Try this:
Probability of either 1 sequence or the other one is (1/4) + (1/4) = 1/2 .
That means ... Regardless of what the first roll is, the probability of
the second roll matching it in oddness or evenness is 1/2 .
So the probability of 2 rolls that sum to an even number is 1/2 = 50% .
Is this reasonable, or sleazy ?
