Answer:
Slope is positive for all x, so always increasing
Step-by-step explanation:
Increasing/decreasing depends on the slope of the function, which is f'
f'(x) = 9x² + 18x + 25
If f'(x) > 0 for all x, then his claim is correct (increasing for all x)
If there's even 1 x-value for which f'(x) is not positive, his claim is incorrect
f'(x) is a quadratic function.
9x² + 18x + 25
9(x² + 2x) + 25
9(x² + 2(x)(1) + 1² - 1²) + 25
9(x + 1)² - 9 + 25
9(x + 1)² + 16
Since the minimum value of f' is 16, it's always positive.
Hence, the claim is correct
6 and 3/4 divided by 1/2
27/4 divided by 1/2
27/4 * 2/1 = 27/2 = 13 and 1/2
To solve for , we need to isolate it on one side of the equation.
The most important part of this is knowing that whatever we do to one side of the equation, we must also do to the other.
Subtract 32 from both sides of the equation.
Divide both sides of the equation by .
