Complete parts a through c for the given function.
victus00 [196]

Answer:

a. The critcal points are at

x=0,-5,3

b. Then, x = -5   is a maximum and x=3 is a minimum

c. The absolute minimum is at   x = 3  and the absolute maximum is at  x = -5.

Step-by-step explanation:

(a)

Remember that you need to find the points where

f'(x)=0

Therefore you have to solve this equation.

20x^4  + 40x^3 - 300x^2 = 0

From that equation you can factor out    20x^2  and you would get

20x^2 (  x^2  +2x - 15)  = 0

And from that you would have   20x^2 = 0  , so x = 0.

And you would also have  x^2 +2x-15 = 0.

You can factor that equation as    x^2 +2x -15 = (x+5)(x-3) = 0

Therefore   x=-5 ,   x=3.

So the critcal points are at

x=0,-5,3

b.  

Remember that a function has a maximum at a critical point if the second derivative at that point is negative. Since

f''(x) = 80x^3 + 120x^2 -600x\\f''(-5) = 80(-5)^3 + 120(-5)^2 -600(-5) = -4000 < 0\\\\f''(3) = 80(3)^3 + 120(3)^2 -600(3) = 1440 > 0 \\

Then, x = -5   is a maximum and x=3 is a minimum

c.

The absolute minimum is at   x = 3  and the absolute maximum is at  x = -5.

PLS HELP ME 30 POINTS IN TOTAL
Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

Both of the equations are right because if you take s=4p, then reverse it, p=1/4 of s because 4 of p is equal to s so s/4 = p

What is the area of this figure?<br><br> A.49.5 in²<br> B.66.5 in²<br> C.84 in²<br> D.91 in²
aliya0001 [1]
The area of a trapezoid with base lengths 7 in and 19 in is given by
  A = (1/2)(b1 + b2)h
  A = (1/2)(7 +19)·7 = 91

The appropriate choice is
  D. 91 in²


_____
It can also be figured by adding the area of the 7 in square (49 in²) to the area of the 7×12 in right triangle (42 in²).
