Suppose ff is a continuous function that has critical points at x=-2x = − 2 and at x=1x = 1 such that f'(-2)=0f ′ ( − 2 ) = 0 an

d f'(1)=0f ′ ( 1 ) = 0. The second derivative of f (x)f ( x ) is given as LaTeX: f''(x) = x^2-4x+1f ″ ( x ) = x 2 − 4 x + 1. Use the second derivative test and choose the correct statement regarding local extrema at the given critical points.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

It seems that the question is incomplete and no further information was found on the internet. Nevertheless, it seems that the question is regarding the second derivative criteria.

REcall that the second derivative criteria is used to determine whether a critical point is a minimum or a maximum. A point is called critical if the first derivative is zero or if it doesn't exist at the point.

The criteria is as follows. Given a point x_0, provided a function that is twice differentiable,  the point is a minimum if and only if f''(x_0)>0, a maximum if and only if f''(x_0) and an inflexion point if f''(x_0)=0.

Let us use  the second derivative criteria to determine if the given points are a maximum, a minimum or inflexion points.

f''(-2) = (-2)^2-4(-2)+1 = 13>0(this means x=-2 is a minimum)

f''(1) = (1)^2-4(1)+1 = -2(this means x=1 is a maximum)

What is the slope of the line that is perpendicular to a line whose equation 3y=-4x+2?
Zarrin [17]
The slopes of lines perpendicular to each other are opposite reciprocals. So, if you are given that the slope of a line is 3 and need to find the slope of a line perpendicular to that line, you'd flip that number around and negate it, leaving you with -1/3.

To find the slope of the given line, first get it into slope-intercept form (y - mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept).

    3y = -4x + 2
    y = -4/3x + 2/3

The slope is -4/3. To find the slope of a perpendicular line, find its opposite reciprocal. It is 3/4.

Answer:
3/4 (the first option)

Verizon [17]

Answer:

1st pic:

Felix

mean: 11.31

median: 9

mode: none

range: 26

Tyler

mean: 56.57

median; 68

mode: none

range: 92

2nd pic:

The first histogram has a large amount of cheaper books and doesn't have any books that are above $29.99. This histogram sells cheaper books. The second histogram sells a more even distribution of books by cost. There are no bins that are significantly higher than the rest. This second histogram sells more expensive books.

3rd pic:

The first set of data shows that the difference in the prices is very small while the second set of data shows a larger variety of prices. The first set represents its prices in equally divided groups making it easier to read and determine than the second set of data.

-4 = r divided by 20 − 5<br> Solve for R
Sidana [21]

Answer:

20

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify both sides of the equation.

−4= r 20 −5 −4= 1 /20 r+−5 −4= 1 /20 r−5

Flip the equation.

1 /20 r−5=−4

Add 5 to both sides.

1 /20 r−5+5=−4+5

1 /20 r=1

Multiply both sides by 20.

20*( 1 /20 r)=(20)*(1)

r=20
