Answer:

True, see proof below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember two theorems about continuity:

  1. If f is differentiable at the point p, then f is continuous at p. This also applies to intervals instead of points.
  2. (Bolzano) If f is continuous in an interval [a,b] and there exists x,y∈[a,b] such that f(x)<0<f(y), then there exists some c∈[a,b] such that f(c)=0.

If f is differentiable in [0,4], then f is continuous in [0,4] (by 1). Now, f(0)=-1<0 and f(4)=3>0. Thus, we have the inequality f(0)<0<f(4). By Bolzano's theorem, there exists some c∈[0,4] such that f(c)=0.

The cost for a pack of 7 padlocks to $23.80. Find the unit price in dollars per padlock. If necessary, round your answer to the
Galina-37 [17]

It asks to "Find the unit price in dollars per padlock"

The phrasing "dollars per padlock" is the same as "dollars per 1 padlock"

In other words, the teacher wants to know how much 1 padlock costs.

7 padlocks : $23.80

7/7 padlocks : $23.80/7 .... divide both parts by 7

1 padlock : $3.40

We see that 1 padlock costs $3.40, so the unit cost is $3.40 per padlock

HELP 20 POINTS!!!
Andrew [12]

The discriminant of equation ax^2+bx+c = 0 is b^2-4ac.

Here b = 12, a = -4, c = -9 so discriminatn is

b^2-4ac = 12^2-4(-4)(-9) = 144 - 144 = 0.

The discrimant is 0. This tells us that there is only 1 x-intercept for this quadratic
