the derivitive is just the slope

minimum happens when the derivitive goes from negative to positive, imagine a slope of the function, the minimum is where the slope goes from neative to positive, and to get there, it has to pass through 0

max happens when the derivitive goes from positive to negative

increaseing is when the derivitive is positive



so, based on what you said, the slope of f(x) is 0 at x=-3, x=1 and x=2 since those are where the derivitive is 0 (derivitive is just the slope)

A and B are wrong because the derivitive isn't 0 at those points

C is correct because increasing means that the derivitive is positive, and so therefo since the only hoirontal place in between 1 and 2 is 1.5, it must remain positive throughout and not dip down, C is right

D is wrong then




answer is C

Katie bought 4 sweaters that each cost the same amount and 1 skirt that cost 20$. The items she bought cost a total of 160$ befo
aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

The cost of each sweater was $35

Step-by-step explanation:

To find this, first find out the cost of all the sweaters added together. We can get this by subtracting the cost of the skit from the total.

$160 - $20 = $140

Now to find the individual cost, divide the cost of all the sweaters by the number of sweaters.

$140/4 = $35
