Answer:

a. The critcal points are at

x=0,-5,3

b. Then, x = -5   is a maximum and x=3 is a minimum

c. The absolute minimum is at   x = 3  and the absolute maximum is at  x = -5.

Step-by-step explanation:

(a)

Remember that you need to find the points where

f'(x)=0

Therefore you have to solve this equation.

20x^4  + 40x^3 - 300x^2 = 0

From that equation you can factor out    20x^2  and you would get

20x^2 (  x^2  +2x - 15)  = 0

And from that you would have   20x^2 = 0  , so x = 0.

And you would also have  x^2 +2x-15 = 0.

You can factor that equation as    x^2 +2x -15 = (x+5)(x-3) = 0

Therefore   x=-5 ,   x=3.

So the critcal points are at

x=0,-5,3

b.  

Remember that a function has a maximum at a critical point if the second derivative at that point is negative. Since

f''(x) = 80x^3 + 120x^2 -600x\\f''(-5) = 80(-5)^3 + 120(-5)^2 -600(-5) = -4000 < 0\\\\f''(3) = 80(3)^3 + 120(3)^2 -600(3) = 1440 > 0 \\

Then, x = -5   is a maximum and x=3 is a minimum

c.

The absolute minimum is at   x = 3  and the absolute maximum is at  x = -5.

Answer:

(a) THE CRITICAL POINTS ARE (-5, 0, 3) on [-6, 4]

(b) THE LOCAL MINIMUM ARE AT

(-5, 3, 0), THERE ARE NO LOCAL MAXIMUM.

(c) THE ABSOLUTE MINIMUM IS -5

THE ABSOLUTE MAXIMUM IS 0.

(d) THE FUNCTION HAS NO EXTREMA.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given f(x) = 4x^5 + 10x^4 - 100x^3 - 4

We are required to find

(a) THE CRITICAL POINTS

The critical points are are the points where the first derivative vanishes.

That is the values x, where

f'(x) = 0

To find these points, let us differentiate f'(x) with respect to x

f'(x) = 20x^4 + 40x³ - 300x²

The points where f'(x) = 0 are the points where

20x^4 + 40x³ - 300x² = 0

20x²(x² + 2x - 15) = 0

x² = 0 => x = 0 is a point

The other points are

x² + 2x - 15 = 0

(x - 3)(x + 5) = 0

x = 3 and x = -5 are the remaining points.

THE CRITICAL POINTS ARE (-5, 0, 3) which are actually on [-6, 4]

(b) LOCAL MAXIMUM AND LOCAL MINIMUM

The Local Maximum is the critical point where the function is greater than zero, and the Local Minimum is the critical point where the function is less than zero.

f(x) = 4x^5 + 10x^4 - 100x^3 - 4

f(-5) = 4(-3125) + 10(625) + 100(-125)

= -15625 + 6250 - 12500 - 4

= -21879

f(0) = -4 < 0

f(3) = 4(243) + 10(81) - 100(27) - 4

= 972 + 810 - 2700 - 4

= -922 < 0

THE LOCAL MINIMUM ARE AT

(-5, 3, 0), THERE ARE NO LOCAL MAXIMUM.

(c) THE ABSOLUTE MINIMUM IS -5

THE ABSOLUTE MAXIMUM IS 0.

Olivia wants to cut 3 3/4 inches from a piece of string.She has already cut off 2 9/16 inches from the piece of string.How much
Roman55 [17]

Answer: she still has to cut off 19/16 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Olivia wants to cut 3 3/4 inches from a piece of string. Converting 3 3/4 inches to improper fraction, it becomes 15/4 inches.

She has already cut off 2 9/16 inches from the piece of string. Converting 2 9/16 inches to improper fraction, it becomes 41/16 inches.

Therefore, the length of string that is left for her to cut off would be

15/4 - 41/16 = (60 - 41)/16

= 19/16 inches

Clair collects seashells. At home, she has 15 shells. Every day she brings 3 back to the beach. After 5 days how many seashells
Igoryamba

The equation would be:

y = 3x + 15

1) Table: It is pretty easy to do so, just plug in 0, 1, 2, 3, etc. for x and solve for y

2) graph (find slope): slope would be 3 shells/day that has a y-intercept of 15

3) you already defined the variables

4) 3(5)+15 = 15+15 = 30 seashells

I hope this helps!
