Answer: 1) (-∞, -6) U (-3, ∞)

2) (-∞, -4) U (2, ∞)

3) (-∞, -3) U (8, ∞)

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Find the zeros. Since the a-value is positive, the curve will be positive to the left of the leftmost zero and to the right of the rightmost zero. + - +

←---|----|--→

1) y = x² + 9x + 18

y = (x + 3)(x + 6)

0 = (x + 3)(x + 6)

0 = x + 3 0 = x + 6 + -- +

x = -3 x = -6 ←------|-----------|--------→

-6 -3

Positive Interval: (-∞, -6) U (-3, ∞)

2) y = x² + 2x - 8

y = (x + 4)(x - 2)

0 = (x + 4)(x - 2)

0 = x + 4 0 = x - 2 + -- +

x = -4 x = 2 ←------|-----------|--------→

-4 2

Positive Interval: (-∞, -4) U (2, ∞)

3) y = x² - 5x - 24

y = (x + 3)(x - 8)

0 = (x + 3)(x - 8)

0 = x + 3 0 = x - 8 + -- +

x = -3 x = 8 ←------|-----------|--------→

-3 8

Positive Interval: (-∞, -3) U (8, ∞)

The differential equation y′′=0y′′=0 has one of the following two parameter families as its general solution: yyyy=C1ex+C2e−x=C1

elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer:

$y(x)=6+9x$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given differential equation, $y''=0$

Characteristic equation is given by $m^2=0$

$\Rightarrow m=0,0$ .

Differential equation have repeated roots and solution of differential equation is $y(x)=C_1+C_2x$ .............................(1)

Initial conditions are $y(0)=6,y'(0)=9$

Plugging first condition in equation (1),

$6=C_1+C_2(0)$

$C_1=6$

Equation (1) becomes

$y(x)=6+C_2x$ ............................(2)

differentiate equation (2) with respect to 'x',

$y'(x)=C_2$

Plugging second condition,

$C_2=9$

Hence, $y(x)=6+9x$

Nick has $7.00. Bagels cost $0.75 each, 12. and a small container of cream cheese costs $1.29. Write an inequality to find the n

Amiraneli [1.4K]

To answer this you would first start with a representation of the situation. See the attached step 1. Use this inequality to find the number of bagels he can get by solving it.

See step two in the attached picture for the work necessary to solve this.

The answer is not a whole number, so you have to round down to make it a whole number of bagels.

The answer is he could by seven or less bagels. You should substitute this in to prove it works.
