If f(x)=4a_0x^3+3a_1x^2+2a_2x+a_3, then you have

f(-1)=-4a_0+3a_1-2a_2+a_3
f(0)=a_3

By the intermediate value theorem, there will be some number -1 such that f(c)=0 (i.e. f(x) will have a root in (-1,0)) if you can guarantee that f(-1) or f(-1)>f(c)>f(0).

Since the coefficients a_i are all positive, then you know right away that f(0)>0, so you need to have f(-1) in order for there to be such a c.

This means you need to have

-4a_0+3a_1-2a_2+a_33a_1+a_3

which means (A) must be the answer.

HELPPPP what do I do exactly ?
MAXImum [283]

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

Note that the squaring function and the square root function are inverses of one another.  If we make a list of perfect squares, we get {1, 4, 9, 16, 25, ...}.  Then the square roots of these numbers are {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, ... }.

Continue making a table of values to plot.  The first row has x=0, y=0; this reflects that the sqrt of 0 is 0.

Fill the first (x-) column with perfect squares and the second (y-) column with the square roots of these perfect squares:

x   y

0   0

1    1

4    2

9    3

and so on.

Now plot the following on the graph:  (1,1), (4,2), (9,3), ....  

Starting at (0,0) and moving to the right (indicating increases in x), plot these  points.  (You'll soon run out of room.)  Draw a smooth curve from (0,0) to connect these points.  The result is a graph of the square root function.

The domain of this function is "the set of all real numbers ≥0" and the range is the same:  "the set of all real numbers ≥0"

A french class has a total of 25 student.The number of males is 7 more than the number of females how many males and how many fe
Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

16 males and 9 females

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this we can use a system of equations.

Let's start by naming the number of females x.

The number of males would then be y.

<u>Using these variables, we can set up 2 equations using info provided:</u>

A french class has a total of 25 students, -> x+y=25

The number of males is 7 more than the number of females -> x+7=y

Use substitution to solve.

<u>From the second equation:</u>

x+7=y

Subtract 7 from both sides.

x=y-7

Substitute that into the first equation.

x+y=25

y-7+y=25

Combine like terms.

2y-7=25

Add 7 to both sides.

2y=32

Divide both sides by 2.

y=16

Substitute y=16 into equation 2.

x+7=y

x+7=16

Subtract 7 from both sides.

x=9

Therefore, there are 16 males and 9 females in the french class.

In 2011, a train carried 8% more passengers than in 2010. In 2012 , it carried 8% more passengers than in 2011. Find the percent
hjlf

Answer:

there was a 16% increase since 2010 to 2012

Step-by-step explanation:

lets say the train had 100 people on it in 2010 and in 2011 it had an 8% increase which then brings you to 8 plus 100 and you get 108.

Now in 2012 there was an increase 8%, so you will add 8 to your previous answer 108 and receive 116. So now there was 16 more passengers in 2012 than in 2010. Transfer the 16 passengers into 16% and you now have your answer.
