Write two decimals one repeating and one terminating with values between 0 and 1 then write an inequality that shows the relatio
LuckyWell [14K]
This is a fairly easy question. So I'll break it down and give you a description of the terms.

A repeating decimal (like 1/3, 3.333etc is often written as 3.3 with a dot above the second 3 or a ... or an etc) can be anything you chose, 0.7222etc...., 0.3555etc.... Any number which goes on forever. Your choice! A terminating decimal does not go on forever, like 0.25 or 0.43353. It can be as long as you like but it has to end at some point. 


Inequalities are just a question, which value is bigger? You use a < or > to show the relationship, x<y means x is smaller than y. Same for y>x.

So just choose two numbers, 0.333... and... let's say, 0.72. 0.72 is larger so we write 0.333...<0.72

Done!

Graph the function y = 2x3 – x2 – 4x + 5. To the nearest tenth, over which interval is the function decreasing?
daser333 [38]
As you progress in math, it will become increasingly important that you know how to express exponentiation properly.

y = 2x3 – x2 – 4x + 5  should be written    <span>y = 2^x3 – x^2 – 4^x + 5.  The 
" ^ " symbol denotes exponentiation.

I see you're apparently in middle school.  Is that so?  If so, are you taking calculus already?  If so, nice!

Case 1:  You do not yet know calculus and have not differentiated or found critical values.  Sketch the function          </span>y = 2x^3 – x^2 – 4^x + 5, including the y-intercept at (0,5).  Can you identify the intervals on which the graph appears to be increasing and those on which it appears to be decreasing?

Case 2:  You do know differentiation, critical values and the first derivative test.  Differentiate  y = 2x^3 – x^2 – 4^x + 5 and set the derivative = to 0:

dy/dx = 6x^2 - 2x - 4 = 0.  Reduce this by dividing all terms by 2:

dy/dx = 3x^2 - x - 2 = 0    I used synthetic div. to determine that one root is x = 2/3.  Try it yourself.  This leaves the coefficients of the other factor, (3x+3); this other factor is x = 3/(-3) = -1.  Again, you should check this.

Now we have 2 roots:  -1 and 2/3

Draw a number line.  Locate the origin (0,0).  Plot the points (-1, 0) and (2/3, 0).  This subdivides the number line into 3 subintervals:

(-infinity, -1), (-1, 2/3) and (2/3, infinity).

Choose a test number from each interval and subst. it for x in the derivative formula above.  If the derivative comes out +, the function is increasing on that interval; if -, the function is decreasing.

Ask all the questions you want, if this explanation is not sufficiently clear.
