To solve for this, we need to find for the value of x
when the 1st derivative of the equation is equal to zero (or at the
extrema point).
So what we have to do first is to derive the given
equation:
f (x) = x^2 + 4 x – 31
Taking the first derivative f’ (x):
f’ (x) = 2 x + 4
Setting f’ (x) = 0 and find for x:
2 x + 4 = 0
x = - 2
Therefore the value of a is:
a = f (-2)
a = (-2)^2 + 4 (-2) – 31
a = 4 – 8 – 31
a = - 35
I think 70 because playing on a varsity, i think, means to play both sports. So I added 10 to the number of students that play basket ball, which is also equal to the number of students that like tennis.
im not sure
Answer:
$21.80
Step-by-step explanation:
50% of 38 is 19. 10% of 38 is 3.8. Add these together to get 21.8. This equates to $21.80.
Answer: 7 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Since all 4 sides of a square are equal, you do 28 / 4 = 7 feet, which is the answer.
