Find the value of x at which the function has a possible relative maximum or minimum point.​ (Recall that e Superscript x is pos

itive for all​ x.) Use the second derivative to determine the nature of the function at these points.
f(x)=(3+x)e-4x

What is the value of x at which the function has a possible relative maximum or minimum point?

Answer:

x= -11/4 is a maximum.

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember that a function has its critical points where the derivative equal zero. Therefore we need to compute the derivative of this function and find the points where the derivative is zero. Using the chain rule and the product rule we get that

f'(x)=  -e^{-4x}(11+4x)

And then we get that   if   11+4x = 0   then   x = -11/4 . So it has a critical point at   x = -11/4.

Now, if the second derivative evaluated at that point is less than 0 then the point is a maximum and if is greater than zero the point is a minimum.

Since

f''(x) = 8e^{-4x} (5+2x)\\f''(-11/4) = -239496.56

x= -11/4 is a maximum.

What is 6 minus 3 1/2?
kvv77 [185]

I Hope this will help. Im not 100% sure it is right :)


6- 3.5= 3 1/2

6-3= 3

3- 0.5= 2.5 so

6- 3 1/2 is 2 1/2 or 2.5

Find the equation of a circle given only its diameter endpoints: (-2,1) and (6,-7)
Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

(x - 2)² + (y + 3)² = 32

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a circle in standard form is

(x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²

where (h, k) are the coordinates of the centre and r is the radius

The centre of the circle is at the midpoint of the diameter

Calculate the centre (x, y ) using the midpoint formula

(x, y ) = ( \frac{x_{1}+x_{2}  }{2} , \frac{y_{1}+y_{2}  }{2} )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 2, 1) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (6, - 7)

(x , y ) = ( \frac{-2+6}{2} , \frac{1-7}{2} ) = ( \frac{4}{2} , \frac{-6}{2} ) = (2, - 3)

The radius is the distance from the centre to either of the endpoints

Calculate the radius using the distance formula

r = \sqrt{(x_{2}-x_{1})^2+( y_{2}-y_{1})^2   }

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (2, - 3) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (- 2, 1)

r = \sqrt{(-2-2)^2+(1-(-3))^2}

  = \sqrt{(-4)^2+(1+3)^2

   = \sqrt{16+4^2}

   = \sqrt{16+16}

   = \sqrt{32}

Then equation of circle is

(x - 2)² + (y - (- 3) )² = (\sqrt{32} )² , that is

(x - 2)² + (y + 3)² = 32
