Answer:
a. The critcal points are at

b. Then,
is a maximum and
is a minimum
c. The absolute minimum is at
and the absolute maximum is at 
Step-by-step explanation:
(a)
Remember that you need to find the points where

Therefore you have to solve this equation.

From that equation you can factor out
and you would get

And from that you would have
, so
.
And you would also have
.
You can factor that equation as 
Therefore
.
So the critcal points are at

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

Then,
is a maximum and
is a minimum
c.
The absolute minimum is at
and the absolute maximum is at 
Answer:
B. The evidence is very strong - there is NO difference in the proportion of Republicans between the two areas of town.
Step-by-step explanation: Generally, a p-value of less than 0.05 is described as a strong evidence in favour of the null hypothesis. A p-value also known as the probability value is also known to provide the smallest level of evidence at which the null hypothesis would be rejected.
In the question, The p-value is 0.105 which is bigger in value than 0.05 which means there is no significant difference between the evidence and the null hypothesis.
I would compute sqrt(1 + 160pi^2) first to get approximately 39.75093337
Add this to 1 and we have 40.75093337
Then divide over 2pi to get a final approximate result of 6.48571248
So x = 6.48571248 is one approximate solution
In short, I computed
only focusing on the plus for now.
----------------------
If you were to compute
you should get roughly -6.167402596 as your other solution. Each solution can then be plugged into the original equation to check if you get 0 or not. You likely won't land exactly on 0 but you'll get close enough.
Answer:
1½ cords per hour
Step-by-step explanation:
A log splitter can split 6/5 cords of wood in 4/5 of an hour.
To find a unit rate, we divide the quantity of cords of wood by the time.
This gives us the complex fraction.

This is the same as

To divide two fractions, we multiply by the reciprocal of the second fraction.


This simplifies to:

The unit rate is 1.5 cords per hour
7.025 is greater than 7 1/8
