note that gradient = \frac{dy}{dx} at x = a

calculate \frac{dy}{dx} for each pair of functions and compare gradient

(a)

\frac{dy}{dx} = 2x and \frac{dy}{dx} = - 1

at x = 4 : gradient = 8 and - 1 : 8 > - 1

(b)

\frac{dy}{dx} = 2x + 3 and \frac{dy}{dx} = - 2

at x = 2 : gradient = 7 and - 2 and 7 > - 2

(c)

\frac{dy}{dx} = 4x + 13 and \frac{dy}{dx} = 2

at x = - 7 : gradient = - 15 and 2 and 2 > - 15

(d)

\frac{dy}{dx} = 6x - 5 and \frac{dy}{dx} = 2x - 2

at x = - 1 : gradient = - 11 and - 4 and - 4 > - 11

(e)

y = √x = x^{\frac{1}{2} }

\frac{dy}{dx} = 1/(2√x) and \frac{dy}{dx} = 2

at x = 9 : gradient = \frac{1}{6} and 2 and 2 > \frac{1}{6}

vova2212 [387]

Answer:

<u>Based on the results the boutique could be located there.</u>

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

Note: The average income (the mean) is calculated by summing the total incomes then divided by the total sample–9.

The mean ù (average income) = $28,000 + $24,000 + $26,000 + $25,000 + $23,000 + $27,000 + $26,000 + $22,000 + $24,000= $225,000/9= $25,000 (which is ≥ $25,000.

Based on the results of the p-value, using the 5% significant level <em>we fail to reject the null hypothesis</em> (ú≥25,000).

Question 1<br> Determine the midpoint of the segment with endpoint (-9,3) and (7,-8).<br> Question 2
mario62 [17]

Answer:

(-1, -2.5)

Step-by-step explanation:

the midpoint of a segment is (\frac{x1+x2}{2} ,\frac{y1+y2}{2}), given points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2)

midpoint=(\frac{-9+7}{2}, \frac{3-8}{2} ) = (\frac{-2}{2}, \frac{-5}{2}  ) = (-1, -2.5)
