Answer:
5–3 = 2
8–5 = 3
12–8 = 4
17–12 = 5
x-17 should be 6, hence x = 6+17 = 23.
Step-by-step explanation:
The answer is 12
12-(5+3)=4
4+8=12
To get the extrema, derive the function.
You get y' = 2x^-1/3 - 2.
Set this equal to zero, and you get x=0 as the location of a critical point.
Since you are on a closed interval [-1, 1], those points can also have an extrema.
Your min is right, but the max isn't at (1,1). At x=-1, you get y=5 (y = 3(-1)^2/3 -2(-1); (-1)^2/3 = 1, not -1).
Thus, the maximum is at (-1, 5).
Answer:
Mark gets £54
Step-by-step explanation:
Let Gavin share=x
Henry=3x
Mark=2(3x)
x+3x+2(3x)=£90
x+3x+6x=£90
10x=£90
x=9
Gavin=x=£9
Henry=3x
=3(9)=£27
Mark=2(3x)
=2(3*9)
=2(27)
=£54
