Answer:

The local maximum and minimum values are:

Local maximum

g(0) = 0

Local minima

g(5.118) = -350.90

g(-1.368) = -9.90

Step-by-step explanation:

Let be g(x) = x^{4}-5\cdot x^{3}-14\cdot x^{2}. The determination of maxima and minima is done by using the First and Second Derivatives of the Function (First and Second Derivative Tests). First, the function can be rewritten algebraically as follows:

g(x) = x^{2}\cdot (x^{2}-5\cdot x -14)

Then, first and second derivatives of the function are, respectively:

First derivative

g'(x) = 2\cdot x \cdot (x^{2}-5\cdot x -14) + x^{2}\cdot (2\cdot x -5)

g'(x) = 2\cdot x^{3}-10\cdot x^{2}-28\cdot x +2\cdot x^{3}-5\cdot x^{2}

g'(x) = 4\cdot x^{3}-15\cdot x^{2}-28\cdot x

g'(x) = x\cdot (4\cdot x^{2}-15\cdot x -28)

Second derivative

g''(x) = 12\cdot x^{2}-30\cdot x -28

Now, let equalize the first derivative to solve and solve the resulting equation:

x\cdot (4\cdot x^{2}-15\cdot x -28) = 0

The second-order polynomial is now transform into a product of binomials with the help of factorization methods or by General Quadratic Formula. That is:

x\cdot (x-5.118)\cdot (x+1.368) = 0

The critical points are 0, 5.118 and -1.368.

Each critical point is evaluated at the second derivative expression:

x = 0

g''(0) = 12\cdot (0)^{2}-30\cdot (0) -28

g''(0) = -28

This value leads to a local maximum.

x = 5.118

g''(5.118) = 12\cdot (5.118)^{2}-30\cdot (5.118) -28

g''(5.118) = 132.787

This value leads to a local minimum.

x = -1.368

g''(-1.368) = 12\cdot (-1.368)^{2}-30\cdot (-1.368) -28

g''(-1.368) = 35.497

This value leads to a local minimum.

Therefore, the local maximum and minimum values are:

Local maximum

g(0) = (0)^{4}-5\cdot (0)^{3}-14\cdot (0)^{2}

g(0) = 0

Local minima

g(5.118) = (5.118)^{4}-5\cdot (5.118)^{3}-14\cdot (5.118)^{2}

g(5.118) = -350.90

g(-1.368) = (-1.368)^{4}-5\cdot (-1.368)^{3}-14\cdot (-1.368)^{2}

g(-1.368) = -9.90

Solve for x. Leave your answer in simplest radical form.
strojnjashka [21]

There are two Right angled triangles in the given figure, with two missing sides, let's name the other missing side be " y "

According to Pythagoras theorem,

\boxed{ \large \boxed{h {}^{2}  =  {b}^{2} + p{}^{2}  }}

note :

  • p = perpendicular / opposite side
  • b = base / adjacent side
  • h = hypotenuse

let's solve for " y² " first ( square of other missing side )

➢ \:  \:  {y}^{2}  =  {8}^{2}  + 3 {}^{2}

➢ \:  \:  {y}^{2}  = 64 + 9

➢ \:  \:  {y}^{2}  = 73

now let's solve for " x " , by using pythagorous theorem

➢ \:  \:  {x}^{2}  =  {y}^{2}  +  {6}^{2}

➢ \:  \:  {x}^{2}  = 73 + 36

➢ \:  \:x {}^{2}  =  109

➢ \:  \: x =  \sqrt{109}

Approximate :

➢ \:  \: 10.44 \:  \: units
