For the difference to be positive, when both the minuend and the subtrahend are positive, the former must be greater than the latter.

Therefore

minuend = 2 ⇒ subtrahend = 1 ← 1 number

minuend = 3 ⇒ subtrahend = 1,2 ← 2 numbers

minuend = 4 ⇒ subtrahend = 1,2,3 ← 3 numbers

minuend = 5 ⇒ subtrahend = 1,2,3,4 ← 4 numbers

minuend = 6 ⇒ subtrahend = 1,2,3,4,5 ← 5 numbers

1+2+3+4+5=<u>15</u>

Can you please solve 2 and 3​
Murrr4er [49]
I’m pretty sure that I’m pretty sure that question 2 is 1 minute and 40 seconds. And for number 3 I got B. 0.25 because if you look at where the line makes a direct cross between pounds and dollars that first one is 8 pounds for 2 dollars. If you divide 8 by 2 you will get 0.25. Hope this helped :)

In Exploration 5.4.2 Question 2, what conclusion can you make about the value of the derivative at
givi [52]

The value of the derivative at the maximum or minimum for a continuous function must be zero.

<h3>What happens with the derivative at the maximum of minimum?</h3>

So, remember that the derivative at a given value gives the slope of a tangent line to the curve at that point.

Now, also remember that maximums or minimums are points where the behavior of the curve changes (it stops going up and starts going down or things like that).

If you draw the tangent line to these points, you will see that you end with horizontal lines. And the slope of a horizontal line is zero.

So we conclude that the value of the derivative at the maximum or minimum for a continuous function must be zero.

If you want to learn more about maximums and minimums, you can read:
