Answer:
a.) f'(x) = 2x - 2
b.) horizontal tangent line at (1, 0)
c.) view image
d.) the point given, (-1, -1/2), isn't even located on the graph of f(x). Either there is a typo or the question is poorly stated.
Step-by-step explanation:
a.) You should know how to do derivative already
b.) Horizontal tangent line just mean that the slope is zero. Since a derivative is a slope, just find when the derivative is equal to 0.
c.) The function f(x) looks like a U. The only spot that has a zero slope is at the bottom of the U when the slope changes from negative to positive. Since my horizontal tangent line(where the slope is 0) is located at point (1,0), that must be where the bottom of the graph is,
d.) Poorly stated question. The point given isn't even located on the graph.
The rise would have to be 12.
This is because in order to be "Similar" triangles the sides need to be proportionate.
(1/3 = 4/12)
Answer:
x is equal to 6
Step-by-step explanation:
4x=24
divide both sides by 4
4 eliminates 4 leaving x behind
4 divides 24 making x =6
