x=\frac{1}{2}-\sqrt3\\\\x^3-2x^2-7x+5=3\\\\(\frac{1}{2}-\sqrt3)^3-2(\frac{1}{2}-\sqrt3)^2-7(\frac{1}{2}-\sqrt3)+5\\\\=(\frac{1}{2})^3-3\cdot(\frac{1}{2})^2\cdto\sqrt3+3\cdot\frac{1}{2}\cdot(\sqrt3)^2-(\sqrt3)^3-...\\\\...-2[(\frac{1}{2})^2-2\cdot\frac{1}{2}\cdot\sqrt3+(\sqrt3)^2]-\frac{7}{2}+7\sqrt3+5

=\frac{1}{8}-\frac{3\sqrt3}{4}+\frac{9}{2}-3\sqrt3-2(\frac{1}{4}-\sqrt3+3)-\frac{7}{2}+7\sqrt3+5\\\\=\frac{1}{8}+\frac{9}{2}-\frac{1}{2}-6-\frac{7}{2}+5-\frac{3}{4}\sqrt3-3\sqrt3+2\sqrt3+7\sqrt3\\\\=\frac{1}{8}+\frac{1}{2}-1+5\frac{1}{4}\sqrt3=\frac{1}{8}-\frac{1}{2}+5\frac{1}{4}\sqrt3=\frac{1}{8}-\frac{4}{8}+5\frac{1}{4}\sqrt3\\\\=-\frac{3}{8}+5\frac{1}{4}\sqrt3\neq3

Determine whether the statement is true or false. If it is false, explain why or give an example that shows it is false. If a fu
natta225 [31]

Answer:

See Explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

If a Function is differentiable at a point c, it is also continuous at that point.

but be careful, to not assume that the inverse statement is true if a fuction is Continuous it doest not mean it is necessarily differentiable, it must satisfy the two conditions.

  • the function must have one and only one tangent at x=c
  • the fore mentioned tangent cannot be a vertical line.

                                          And

If function is differentiable at a point x, then function must also be continuous at x. but The converse does not hold, a continuous function need not be differentiable.

  • For example, a function with a bend, cusp, or vertical tangent may be continuous, but fails to be differentiable at the location of the anomaly.

at a grocery store, an uncooked beef roast is on sale for $5.99/lb. At the same grocery store, prepared roast beef is available
-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

$7.58/lb

Step-by-step explanation:

raw roast: $5.99 per lb

deli roast: $2.99 for 100g

We know the price per lb of the raw roast.

Let's find the price per lb of the deli roast.

1 lb = 454 grams

454 grams / 100 grams = 4.54

1 lb is 4.54 times 100 g

If we multiply the price of 100g of deli roast by 4.54, we get teh price per lb.

$2.99/lb * 4.54 = $13.57/lb

raw roast: $5.99/lb

deli roast: $13.57/lb

difference in price of 1 lb: $13.57 - $5.99 = $7.58

Answer: $7.58/lb
