Part A. You have the correct first and second derivative.

---------------------------------------------------------------------

Part B. You'll need to be more specific. What I would do is show how the quantity (-2x+1)^4 is always nonnegative. This is because x^4 = (x^2)^2 is always nonnegative. So (-2x+1)^4 >= 0. The coefficient -10a is either positive or negative depending on the value of 'a'. If a > 0, then -10a is negative. Making h ' (x) negative. So in this case, h(x) is monotonically decreasing always. On the flip side, if a < 0, then h ' (x) is monotonically increasing as h ' (x) is positive.

-------------------------------------------------------------

Part C. What this is saying is basically "if we change 'a' and/or 'b', then the extrema will NOT change". So is that the case? Let's find out

To find the relative extrema, aka local extrema, we plug in h ' (x) = 0
h  ' (x) = -10a(-2x+1)^4
0 = -10a(-2x+1)^4
so either
-10a = 0 or (-2x+1)^4 = 0
The first part is all we care about. Solving for 'a' gets us a = 0. 
But there's a problem. It's clearly stated that 'a' is nonzero. So in any other case, the value of 'a' doesn't lead to altering the path in terms of finding the extrema. We'll focus on solving (-2x+1)^4 = 0 for x. Also, the parameter b is nowhere to be found in h ' (x) so that's out as well.

Work out the length of the following rectangles
tiny-mole [99]

(a) a = 10.9 cm

(b) b = 20.78 cm

(c) c = 4.06 cm

<u>Explanation:</u>

(a)

height, h = 5cm

Hypotenuse, H = 12cm

Base, a = ?

Using pythagoras theorm:

(H)² = (h)² + (a)²

(12)² = (5)² + (a)²

119 = a²

a = 10.9 cm

(b)

Hypotenuse, H = 24 cm

Base, a = 12 cm

Height, b = ?

Using pythagoras theorm:

(H)² = (b)² + (a)²

(24)² = (b)² + (12)²

432 = b²

b = 20.78 cm

(c)

height, h = 4 cm

Hypotenuse, H = 5.7 cm

Base, c = ?

Using pythagoras theorm:

(H)² = (h)² + (c)²

(5.7)² = (4)² + (c)²

16.49 = c²

c = 4.06 cm

The theater sells two types of tickets: adult tickets for $6 and child tickets for $4.
andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

237

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a system of equations.

The theater sold 364 adult and child tickets, so a + c = 364

They made a total of $1930. Each adult ticket was $6 & child tickets were $4. The second equation is 6a + 4c = 1930.

Let's line them up

a  +  c = 364

6a + 4c = 1930

Since we need to solve for the number of adult tickets, we want to get rid of the c variable. I'm going to multiply the entire first equation by -4 to do this. The second equation stays the same. Now, I have:

-4a - 4c = -1456

6a + 4c = 1930            Add them together

----------------------

2a = 474                      Divide by 2 to solve for a

a = 237

There were 237 adult tickets sold

Find three consecutive even integers such that 4 times the third integer is 4 more than the 3 times the first integer plus two t
musickatia [10]
Let lowest integer be n  then

4(n + 4)  = 3n + 2(n + 2) + 4

4n + 16 = 5n + 8
8 = n  

so three integers are 8,10 and 12.
