To get the percentage, first, we must subtract 5,600 from 6,300.
6,300 - 5,600 = 700
.
Second, we must divide 700 by 5,600.
700 / 5,600 = 0.125
.
Then, move the decimal place two places to the right and add a percent sign (%).
0.125 = 12.5%
.
Therefore, the percent of increase of the population of the town is 12.5%.

X=6300×100/5600=112,5
112,5-100=12,5

How do you use the limit definition of the derivative to find the derivative of f(x)=1/x?
guapka [62]
Example 1. Let us start with the functionf(x) = x2. We have 




So 




which means f '(a) = 2a.

What about the derivative of f(x) = xn. Similar calculations, using the binomial expansion for (x+y)n (Pascal's Triangle), yield

Which of the following conjectures is false?<br>Please give a counterexample!<br>Thank youuu
MakcuM [25]

Which of the following conjectures is false?

Solution: The false conjecture is:

J. The sum of two odd numbers is odd

Explanation:

F. The product of two even numbers is even.

For example: Let us take two even numbers 4 and 6.

The product of two even numbers is:

4 \times 6 = 24

Therefore, the product is also even number. Hence the conjecture is true.

G. The sum of two even numbers is even.

For example: Let us take two even numbers 4 and 6.

The sum of two even numbers is:

4+6 = 10

Therefore, the sum is also even number. Hence the conjecture is true.

H. The product of two odd numbers is odd.

For example: Let us take two odd numbers 3 and 5.

The product of two odd numbers is:

3\times5 = 15

Therefore, the product is also odd number. Hence the conjecture is true.

J. The sum of two odd numbers is odd.

For example: Let us take two odd numbers 3 and 5.

The sum of two odd numbers is:

3+5= 8

Therefore, the sum is not an odd number. Hence the conjecture is false.

Using the completing-the-square method, rewrite f(x) = x2 − 8x + 3 in vertex form.
lys-0071 [83]
          f(x) = x² - 8x + 3
             y = x² - 8x + 3
           - 3                - 3
        y - 3 = x² - 8x + 16
y - 3 + 16 = x² - 8x + 16
     y + 13 = x² - 8x + 16
     y + 13 = (x - 4)²
         - 13      - 13
             y = (x - 4)² - 13
          f(x) = (x - 4)² - 13
