Which of the following function types exhibit the end behavior f(x)-->0 as x --> -infinity?

Let's consider the functions one by one.

i) y=x^n,

x --> -infinity means that x is a very very small negative number. To model it in our mind let's think of -10^{15}. This number to an even power becomes 10^{30}, 10^{60}... etc.

Indeed, we can see that the smaller the x, the greater the value x^n. In fact, as x --> -infinity,  f(x)-->+infinity.

ii)
y=x, 

this clearly means that the behaviors of x and y are identical.

As x --> -infinity, y --> -infinity as well.


iii) y=|x|,

We can think of x --> -infinity, again, as a very very small number, like -10^{15}. For this value of x, y is |-10^{15}|, that is 10^{15}.

Indeed, the smaller the x, the greater the y. As in the function in part (i), as x --> -infinity,  f(x)-->+infinity.

iv) 

y=1/x

consider the values of y for the following values of x:

for x=-10, -100, -1000, y is respectively -0.1, -0.01, -0.001.

We can see that the smaller the x, the closer y gets to 0.

Thus, <span>f(x)-->0 as x --> -infinity
</span>
v) n'th root of x in not defined for negative x, when n is even.

vi) y=b^x, b>0

Here note that b cannot be equal to 1, otherwise the function is not exponential.

Let b=5, consider the values of y for the following values of x:

for x=-10, -100, -1000, y is respectively \displaystyle{ \frac{1}{5^{10}},  \frac{1}{5^{100}}, \frac{1}{5^{1000}}.

That is, the smaller the value of x, the closer y gets to 0.

Thus, <span>f(x)-->0 as x --> -infinity</span>

Question 2 please fas
Len [333]

Answer:

a = 3, b = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that both the polynomials are equal.

Therefore, h(x) = k(x)

{x}^{3}  + (a + b) {x}^{2}  - 4x + 2 \\  =  {x}^{3}  + 5 {x}^{2}  - (2a - b)x + 2 \\  \\ equating \: like \: terms \: on \: both \: sides \\ (a + b) {x}^{2}  = 5 {x}^{2}   \\  \implies \: a + b = 5.....(1) \\  \\  - (2a - b)x =  - 4x \\ 2a - b = 4....(2) \\  \\ adding \: equations \: (1) \: and \: (2) \\  \\ 3a = 9 \\   \implies \: a =  \frac{9}{3}  \\   \huge \red{ \boxed{\implies \: a = 3}} \\  \\ substituting \: a = 3 \: in \: equation \: (1) \\ 3 + b = 5 \\   \implies \: b = 5 - 3 \\ \huge \purple{ \boxed{ \implies  b = 2}}

lesya692 [45]

(1) D

L_s\left\{t\right\} = \displaystyle\int_0^\infty te^{-st}\,\mathrm dt

Integrate by parts, taking

u = t \implies \mathrm du=\mathrm dt

\mathrm dv = e^{-st}\,\mathrm dt \implies v=-\dfrac1se^{-st}

Then

L_s\left\{t\right\} = \displaystyle \left[-\frac1ste^{-st}\right]\bigg|_{t=0}^{t\to\infty}+\frac1s\int_0^\infty e^{-st}\,\mathrm dt

L_s\left\{t\right\} = \displaystyle \frac1s\int_0^\infty e^{-st}\,\mathrm dt

L_s\left\{t\right\} = \displaystyle -\frac1{s^2}e^{-st}\bigg|_{t=0}^{t\to\infty}

L_s\left\{t\right\} = \displaystyle \boxed{\frac1{s^2}}

(2) A

L_s\left\{1\right\} = \displaystyle\int_0^\infty e^{-st}\,\mathrm dt

L_s\left\{1\right\} = \displaystyle\left[-\frac1se^{-st}\right]\bigg|_{t=0}^{t\to\infty}

L_s\left\{1\right\} = \displaystyle\boxed{\frac1s}
