Answer:
A ( -2 , 9 )
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Idea:</u> You find the first derivative of f(x), and then set it equal to the desired slope. You'll find some x. That we will use to find the point.
f'(x) = 3x^2 + 12x + 20
f'(x) = 8
3x^2 + 12x + 20 = 8
3x^2 + 12x + 12 = 0
3 ( x^2 + 4x + 4 ) = 0
3 ( x + 2 )^2 = 0
x + 2 = 0
x = -2
So, the desired point is:
A ( -2, f(-2) ) --> A ( -2 , 9 )
The median is the middle number of the data plot. Since there 30 numbers, there isn't a exact middle. To find the median you must add the two middle number then divide by 2.
In this case you must add 87 and 88 which gives 175.
Then divide 175 by 2 which gives 87.5
87.5 is the median
How generous
x+3=8
minus 3 both sides
x+3-3=8-3
x+0=5
x=5
A because I searched it up lol
