Answer:

9 Blue Cupcakes

Step-by-step explanation:

First, draw a diagram.

(suppose the blank stars are the pink cupcakes, black stars are the purple cupcakes and the half blank-half black stars are the blue cupcakes)

An 8-sided die is formed when two square pyramids are attached by their bases. The perimeter of the base shape is 6 centimeters.
Leona [35]
Consider one pyramid
Side length of base = 1.5cm and its height is 1 cm
Slant height of one of the lateral faces =  sqrt(1^2 + 0.75^2) =  1.25 cm
Area of one of the triangular faces = 0.5 * 1.5* 1.25 =  0.9375 cm^2

There are 8  of these so the required surface area = 8 * 0.9375 
=  7.5 cm^2 Answer

Find the local max and min values of f(x)=x^2/x-1 using both first and second derivative tests
uranmaximum [27]
Hmm, the 2nd derivitve is good for finding concavity

let's find the max and min points
that is where the first derivitive is equal to 0
remember the difference quotient

so
f'(x)=(x^2-2x)/(x^2-2x+1)
find where it equals 0
set numerator equal to 0
0=x^2-2x
0=x(x-2)
0=x
0=x-2
2=x

so at 0 and 2 are the min and max
find if the signs go from negative to positive (min) or from positive to negative (max) at those points

f'(-1)>0
f'(1.5)<0
f'(3)>0

so at x=0, the sign go from positive to negative (local maximum)
at x=2, the sign go from negative to positive (local minimum)


we can take the 2nd derivitive to see the inflection points
f''(x)=2/((x-1)^3)
where does it equal 0?
it doesn't
so no inflection point
but, we can test it at x=0 and x=2
at x=0, we get f''(0)<0 so it is concave down. that means that x=0 being a max makes sense
at x=2, we get f''(2)>0 so it is concave up. that means that x=2 being a max make sense




local max is at x=0 (the point (0,0))
local min is at x=2 (the point (2,4))
