Take the derivitive
f'(x)=-4x^3+4x
find where it equals 0
0=-4x(x^2-1)
0=-4x(x-1)(x+1)
at x=-1, 0, 1

those are critical points
put those on number line
test points between to see if positive or  negative
f'(-2)=(+)
f'(-0.5)=(-)
f'(0.5)=(+)
f'(2)=(-)
see attachment
remember the max is where the slope changes from positive to negative
at -1 and 1 only

How do you find the amplitude of a sine or cosine wave
avanturin [10]
Let's start with the basic sine function<span>, f(t) = </span>sin<span>(t). This </span>function<span> has an amplitude of 1 because the graph goes one unit up and one unit down from the midline of the graph. This </span>function<span> has a </span>period<span> of 2π because the </span>sine<span> wave repeats every 2π units</span>

Please help i need the answer done step by step
liq [111]

Answer:

x = 40

Step-by-step explanation:

So a triangle is <u>180 degrees</u>

and thats a right triangle = 90 degrees

you have three corners: 90, 50 & x

90 + 50 + x = 180

140 + x = 180

subtract 140 from both sides

x = 40

hope this helps
