The first derivative of the function f(x) = x² - 5 is equal to f'(x) = 2 · x.
<h3>How to find the derivative of a quadratic equation by definition of derivative</h3>
In this question we have a quadratic function, in which we must make use of the definition of derivative to find the expression of its first derivative. Then, the procedure is shown below:
f(x) = x² - 5 Given
f' = [(x + h)² - 5 - x² + 5] / h Definition of derivative
(x² + 2 · x · h + h² - 5 - x² + 5) / h Perfect square trinomial
(2 · x · h + h²) / h Associative, commutative and modulative properties / Existence of additive inverse
2 · x + h Distributive, commutative and associative properties / Definition of division / Existence of multiplicative inverse
2 · x h = 0 / Result
The first derivative of the function f(x) = x² - 5 is equal to f'(x) = 2 · x.

Answer:
m∠J =90°
m∠O = 140°
Step-by-step explanation:
We see here angle J having 90°, pure right angle shape.
m<J=90
Then we find the total interior angle using (n-2)*180
(4-2)*180
360°
So, m∠O = 360° - m∠J - m∠E -m∠K
m∠O = 360° - 90° - 80° -50°
m∠O = 140°

Answer: Choice B</h3>
No, this is not a plausible value for the population mean, because 5 is not within the 95% confidence interval.
====================================================
Explanation:
The greek letter mu is the population mean. It has the symbol
which looks like the letter 'u' but with a tail at the front or left side.
The question is asking if mu = 5 is plausible if the researcher found the 95% confidence interval to be 5.2 < mu < 7.8
We see that 5 is <u>not</u> in that interval. It's a bit to the left of 5.2
Since mu = 5 is not in the interval, it's not a plausible value for the population mean.
Have we ruled it out with 100% confidence? No. Such a thing is not possible. There's always room for (slight) error. The researcher would need to do a census to be fully confident; however, such practices are very time consuming and expensive. This is the main reason why statistics is important to try to estimate the population with a sample.
Answer:
<u>The slope is -3.</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope is the Rise/Run between the two points. The change in y for every change in x. Take the two points and calculate the:
RISE = (-6 - 3) = -9
RUN = (8 - 5) = 3
Rise/Run, or slope, is = -9/3 or -3
I graphed a line with slope of -3 and then added 18 to force the line to intersect the two given points.
1) (2i-4)-(6i+9) = 2i-4-6i-9 = -4i-13
2) (-3+8i)+(3-8i) = -3+8i+3-8i = 0+0i = 0
