Answer:

(14a+3, 21+4) = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

We are going to use the Euclidean Algorithm to prove that these two integers have a gcd of 1.

gcd (14a + 3, 21a + 4) = gcd (14a+3, 7a + 1) = gcd (1, 7a+1) = 1

Therefore,

(14a + 3, 21a + 4) = 1

Is 6+2 +4x equivalent to 6- ( 2-4x) . if not , why not ?
Xelga [282]
Well lets solve for both.
6 + 2 + 4x
Combine like terms.
8 + 4x
Now solve the other one.
6 - (2 - 4x)
Distribute.
6 - 2 + 4x
Combine like terms.
4 + 4x.
These equations are not equivalent because instead of adding two, like in the first one, the second problem is subtracting. So you get 8 + 4x and 4 + 4x. I hope this helps love! :)

Can a local maximum also be a point of inflection? Explain.
myrzilka [38]
<span>Inflection points are where the function changes concavity. Since concave up corresponds to a positive second derivative and concave down corresponds to a negative second derivative, then when the function changes from concave up to concave down (or vise versa) the second derivative must equal zero at that point. So the second derivative must equal zero to be an inflection point. But don't get excited yet. You have to make sure that the concavity actually changes at that point.</span>
