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

Bill earned $12 walking his neighbors' dogs on Saturday. He earned some extra money on Sunday doing the same thing. Write an exp
Tems11 [23]
Answer:
Part A: 12 + X
Part B: 25 + 2
Step-by-step explanation:
First thing you need to know is the
difference between an expression and an
equation. An expression does not have an
equal sign, while an equation does.
To write an expression for Part A, first write
the 12 (the amount he got on Saturday).
Then, we need to write the addition sign (to
find the total amount Bill earned). We don't
know how much Bill earned on Sunday, so
use any variable (I used x). Because we're
writing an expression, do not write an
equal sign.
To write an expression for Part B, first write
the amount of dogs his friend Steve walked
using a variable because we don't know
that number (I used the variable s). Then,
since Bill walked 2 more than twice as
many dogs Steve walked, write the s
multiplied by the 2 or just 2s. Now add the
addition sign (to find the total amount Bill
walked). Add a 2 because Bill walked 2
more dogs than twice as many Steves walked.

Hope it helps!

If a= 5^99 x 2^98 and b= 5^72 x 4^38 show ab has 172 digits when written as a ordinary number
Nonamiya [84]

Step-by-step explanation:

ab

= (5⁹⁹ * 2⁹⁸) * (5⁷² * 4³⁸)

= 2⁹⁸ * 2⁷⁶ * 5⁹⁹ * 5⁷²

= 2¹⁷⁴ * 5¹⁷¹

= 2³ * (2¹⁷¹ * 5¹⁷¹).

The 2¹⁷¹ * 5¹⁷¹ will give 171 ending zeroes as 2 * 5 = 10.

And there is a 8 infront as 2³ = 8.

Hence altogether there are 171 + 1 = 172 digits.

scoundrel [369]
Divide 3.42 by 0.76 to equal 4.5 or

3.42 / 0.76 = 4.5

Therefore, James lives 4.5 times the distance Megan lives from the school.
