Answer:
Solution given:
y=-1/2 x²
for
f(x)=-1/2 x².
differentiating each term with respect to x
f'(x)=-x
when
x=-4
f'(-4)=4>0 increasing
when
x=-2
f'(-2)=2 >0 increasing
when x=0
f'(0)=0 stationary point.
other points are decreasing
so
largest interval of increasing is
A.X<-2
10.4% of 125 is 13 because 10.4%=.104 and .104x125 is 13
S=small pizzas
p=pasta dinners
s+p=1600
9s+13p=15600
multiply first equaiton by -9 and add to the second one
-9s-9p=-14400
<u>9s+13p=15600 +</u>
0s+4p=1200
4p=1200
divide by 4
p=300
sub back
s+p=1600
s+300=1600
minus 300 both sides
s=1300
1300 small pizzas
300 pasta dinners
4/5 pounds of beef (all of them together)
