Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given is a function

f(x)=-x^3+2x^2+2x+1

f(6) = -6^3+2(6^2)+2(6)+1\\=-131\\

f(-2) = -(-2)^3+2(-2)^2+2(-2)+1\\=13

Average slope of this function is change of f(x) in (-2,6)/change of x in (-2,6)

= \frac{-131-13}{8} \\=-18

By mean value theorem there exists a c such that f'(c) = -18

i.e. -3x^2+4x+2 =-8\\3x^2-4x-10 =0\\

Using quadratic formula

x = 2.61, -1.277

Out of these only 2.61 lies in the given interval

c = 2.61

Which statement is true about the domain of y = 3(2^-x)? Explain.
SVEN [57.7K]
We want to determine the domain of {y=3 \cdot 2^{-x}=3 \cdot ({2^{-1}})^x=3 \cdot ({ \frac{1}{2}})^x

any function of the form y=f(x)=a \cdot b^x is called an "exponential function",
the only condition is that b is positive and different from 1, and a is a nonzero real number.

The domain of such functions is all real numbers.

That is for any x, the expression <span>3(2^-x) "makes sense".

A zookeeper predicted the weight of a new baby elephant to be 230 pounds when I was born the elephant actually weigh 262 pounds
insens350 [35]

Answer:

13.9%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Expected weight = 230 pounds

Actual weight= 262 pounds

Required

The percent error

Error= Actaul- expected/ expected *100

Error= 262-230/230*100

Error=32/230*100

Error=0.139*100

Error=13.9%

Hence the error is 13.9%

17. Admission prices to Cinema I to see a movie are $9.50 for an adult and $6.50 for a child. The admission charge at Cinema II
maksim [4K]

Answer:

a. 9.5x + 6.5(x+c) < 8   when c>0

b. Must be one child more than the no. of adults.

Step-by-step explanation:

For Cinema 1:

for adult = $9.50

for child = $6.50

For Cinema 2:

Per person regardless of age = $8.00

First of all, we will find out the condition when per person rates in both cinema are equal.

Assume x = no. of adults

y = no. of children

Rate per person in Cinema I = Rate per person in Cinema II

(9.5x + 6.5y)/(x+y)   =   8

9.5x + 6.5y = 8(x+y)

9.5x + 6.5y = 8x + 8y

9.5x-8x = 8y-6.5y

=> x = y

So rates are equal when no. of adults equals no. of children

For Cinema I to have better rates, no. of children should be atleast 1 more than the no. of adult. In this way the rate per person of Cinema I will be less than 8

Hence we form an inequality when y = x+c and c > 0

9.5x + 6.5(x+c) < 8   when c>0

Hence there must be 1 more children than the no. of adults attending Cinema I for it to be a better deal.
