Answer: 7
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the absolute minimum we must first take the derivative of the function and find where it equals zero. From there we can use the first derivative test to find where our possible minimum is. We then will test each endpoint and compare for the minimum for this function.

The lowest value is 7. The absolute minimum of this function is 7. If you were to graph it, we'd see that the graph reflects that as well.
Answer: the 2 integers are 15 and 17
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the hypotenuse of the right angle triangle. Since the hypotenuse and the other leg are odd consecutive integers, then the other leg is x - 2 because x is longer
When a right angle triangle is formed, it means that
Hypotenuse² = opposite side² + adjacent side²
If the shortest side is 8, it means that
x² = (x - 2)² + 8²
x² = x² - 2x - 2x + 4 + 64
x² - x² + 2x + 2x = 68
4x = 68
x = 68/4 = 17
Therefore, the length of the other leg is
x - 2 = 17 - 2 = 15
Answer:
See below in bold.
Step-by-step explanation:
If we draw a line from the point of intersection to the longest side of the rectangle it will meet it at the midpoint.
The same thing will happen when the line is draw to the shortest side.
So the point of intersection is 1/2 * 7 = 3.5 cm from the longest side and 15/2 = 7.5 cm from the shortest side.
5(3)-3(-2)
15-(-6)=
15+6=21
a negative plus a negative is a positive so its 21
4(3)-3(-2)
12-(-6)
12+6=18
21+18=39
