y=x(x-2)^2
\implies y'=(x-2)^2+2x(x-2)=3x^2-8x+4=(3x-2)(x-2)=0
\implies x=\dfrac23,x=2

are the critical points, and judging by the picture alone, you must have b=\dfrac23 and a=2. (You might want to verify with the derivative test in case that's expected.)

Then the shaded region has area

\displaystyle\int_0^2x(x-2)^2\,\mathrm dx=\dfrac43

I'll leave the details to you.

Now, for part (iv), you're asked to find the minimum of \dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}=y', which entails first finding the second derivative:

y'=3x^2-8x+4
\implies y''=6x-8

setting equal to 0 and finding the critical point:

6x-8=0\implies x=\dfrac86=\dfrac43

This is to say the minimum value of \dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx} *occurs when x=\dfrac43*, but this is not necessarily the same as saying that \dfrac43 is the actual minimum value.

The minimum value of \dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx} is obtained by evaluating the derivative at this critical point:

m=\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}\bigg|_{x=4/3}=3\left(\dfrac43\right)^2-8\left(\dfrac43\right)+4=-\dfrac43

-1/2x + 6 &lt; 4x - 3<br> i need to find the value of X with step-by-step explanation
WITCHER [35]

Answer:

x > 2

Step-by-step explanation:

-1/2x + 6 < 4x - 3

Start by adding 1/2x to both sides to get both x's on the same side

6 < 4 1/2x - 3

Add 3 to both sides to keep the x's by themselves on one side

9 < 4 1/2x

Divide both sides by 4 1/2 to get x by itself

2 < x  so x > 2

nika2105 [10]
ANSWER:

4 ( 2x - 3y + 8 )

8x - 12y + 32 in factorised form is equivalent to:
4 ( 2x - 3y + 8 ).

STEP-BY-STEP EXPLANATION:

8x - 12y + 32 in factorised form is ~

= 8x - 12y + 32

GCF = 4

THEREFORE:

= 4 ( 2x - 3y + 8 )
