(7/2b - 3) - (8 + 6b)

= 7/2b - 3 - 8 - 6b
= 7/2b - 6b - 11
= (7b - 12b)/2 - 11
= - 5/2b - 11

(7/2b - 3) - (8 + 6b)
= 7/2b - 3 - 8 - 6b
= 7/2b - 6b - 11
= -5/2b - 11

In short, Your Answer would be Option A

Hope this helps!

In parallelogram MNPQ, side MN is seven inches longer than twice the length of side NP. If the perimeter of MNPQ is 68 inches, t

Svetlanka [38]

Answer: NP = 9 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

In a parallelogram, the opposite sides are equal.

If the length of the longer side is MN, it means that the length of the two opposite longer sides is 2MN.

If the length of the shorter side is NP, it means that the length of the two opposite shorter sides is 2NP.

The perimeter is 2MN + 2NP

If the perimeter of MNPQ is 68 inches, it means that

2MN + 2NP = 68- - - - - - - - - - - -1

In parallelogram MNPQ, side MN is seven inches longer than twice the length of side NP. It means that

MN = 2NP + 7- - - - - - - - - - -2

Substituting equation 2 into equation 1, it becomes

2(2NP + 7) + 2NP = 68

4NP + 14 + 2NP = 68

4NP + 2NP = 68 - 14

6NP = 54

NP = 54/6

NP = 9 inches

Complete parts a through c for the given function.

victus00 [196]

Answer:

a. The critcal points are at

$x=0,-5,3$

b. Then, $x = -5$ is a maximum and $x=3$ is a minimum

c. The absolute minimum is at $x = 3$ and the absolute maximum is at $x = -5.$

Step-by-step explanation:

(a)

Remember that you need to find the points where

$f'(x)=0$

Therefore you have to solve this equation.

$20x^4 + 40x^3 - 300x^2 = 0$

From that equation you can factor out $20x^2$ and you would get

$20x^2 ( x^2 +2x - 15) = 0$

And from that you would have $20x^2 = 0$ , so $x = 0$ .

And you would also have $x^2 +2x-15 = 0$ .

You can factor that equation as $x^2 +2x -15 = (x+5)(x-3) = 0$

Therefore $x=-5 , x=3$ .

So the critcal points are at

$x=0,-5,3$

Remember that a function has a maximum at a critical point if the second derivative at that point is negative. Since

$f''(x) = 80x^3 + 120x^2 -600x\\f''(-5) = 80(-5)^3 + 120(-5)^2 -600(-5) = -4000 < 0\\\\f''(3) = 80(3)^3 + 120(3)^2 -600(3) = 1440 > 0 \\$

Then, $x = -5$ is a maximum and $x=3$ is a minimum

The absolute minimum is at $x = 3$ and the absolute maximum is at $x = -5.$
