It would be A because b+a
To solve this, you have to know that the first derivative of a function is its slope. When an interval is increasing, it has a positive slope. Thus, we are trying to solve for when the first derivative of a function is positive/negative.
f(x)=2x^3+6x^2-18x+2
f'(x)=6x^2+12x-18
f'(x)=6(x^2+2x-3)
f'(x)=6(x+3)(x-1)
So the zeroes of f'(x) are at x=1, x=-3
Because there is no multiplicity, when the function passes a zero, he y value is changing signs.
Since f'(0)=-18, intervals -3<x<1 is decreasing(because -3<0<1)
Thus, every other portion of the graph is increasing.
Therefore, you get:
Increasing: (negative infinite, -3), (1, infinite)
Decreasing:(-3,1)
Answer:
C. 16
Explanation:
You find 4/6 of 24
4/6 x 24 = 96
Then you divide 96 by 6
96/6 = 16
You can check your work by doing 16 x 6
Im assuing the 0.6 is a percentage and not the number of passes then :
100% - 60% = 40%
Answer:
9 or 3.8x10^-6
Step-by-step explanation:
By flipping a coin you'd look at how many times a head could appear (1/2) and multiply that by the 18 times.
Another explanation:
I'm not sure on this but would you raise 1/2 to the 18th power?
