How do you find the absolute extrema of this function? f(x) = x+3x^(2/3); Interval is [-10,1]

\bf f(x)=x+3x^{\frac{2}{3}}\implies \cfrac{dy}{dx}=1+3\left(\frac{2}{3}x^{-\frac{1}{3}}  \right)\implies \cfrac{dy}{dx}=1+\cfrac{2}{\sqrt[3]{x}}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{dy}{dx}=\cfrac{\sqrt[3]{x}+2}{\sqrt[3]{x}}\implies 0=\cfrac{\sqrt[3]{x}+2}{\sqrt[3]{x}}\implies 0=\sqrt[3]{x}+2\implies -2=\sqrt[3]{x}
\\\\\\
(-2)^3=x\implies \boxed{-8=x}\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
0=\sqrt[3]{x}\implies \boxed{0=x}

now, f(0) = 0, and f(-8) is an imaginary value or no real value.

now, f(-10)   will also give us an imaginary value

and f(1) = 4

so, doing a first-derivative test on 0, is imaginary to the left and positive on the right, and before and after 1, is positive as well, so f(x) is going up on those intervals.

however, f(0) is 0 and f(1) is higher up, so the absolute maximum will have to be f(1), and we can use f(0) as a minimum, and since it's the only one, the absolute minimum.

the other two, the endpoint of -10 and the critical point of -8, do not yield any values for f(x).

What is the slope of (-12,-12) and (9,-9)
telo118 [61]

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope, which is the same as gradient, is equal to

change in y axis ÷change in x axis

<h3>slope =  \frac{change \: in \: y}{change \: in \: x}</h3>

Our coordinates are (-12,-12) and (9,-9)

In (-12,-12),let the first -12 be <em>x1</em><em> </em>and the second one be <em>y1</em>

Same goes for the (9,-9), let 9 be <em>X2</em><em> </em>and -9l be <em>y2</em>

<em>slope =  \frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1}</em>

<em>=  - \frac{ - 9 -  - 12}{9 - 12}</em>

<em>=  \frac{3}{21}</em>

<em>=</em>0.1428571429

= 0.1429

Picture here you go! Thanks
vazorg [7]

Answer:

8/3x + 6 (first option)

Step-by-step explanation:

Well youc an use the destructive property, multiply 2/3 with each number in this expression

2/3* 4x= 8/3x

and

2/3 *9 is 6

Now just plug it in as usual

8/3x+6

Raquel and Van live in two different cities. As part of a project, they each record the lowest prices for a gallon of gas at gas
mylen [45]

Based on the information given, the true statement true about their gas-price data is A. Raquel’s data are most likely closer to $3.42 than Van’s data are to $3.78.

<h3>Solution to the gas-price data.</h3>

It should be noted that a standard deviation simply measures how dispersed the data will be in relation to the mean.

From the complete question, the mean of Raquel's data is given as 3.42 while the standard deviation is given as 0.07. On the other hand, the mean of Van's data is given as 3.78 while the standard deviation is given as 0.23.

Therefore, it can be deduced that Raquel’s data are most likely closer to $3.42 than Van’s data are to $3.78.
