Adi used algebra tiles to represent the product (negative 2 x minus 1)(2 x minus 1). An algebra tile configuration. 4 tiles are

in the Factor 1 spot: 2 are labeled negative x and 2 are labeled negative. 3 tiles are in the Factor 2 spot: 2 are labeled + x and 1 is labeled negative. 12 tiles are in the Product spot: 4 are labeled negative x squared, 4 are labeled negative x, 2 are labeled + x, and 2 are labeled +. Which is true regarding Adi’s use of algebra tiles?A) She used the algebra tiles correctly. B) She did not represent the two original factors correctly on the headers. C) The signs on some of the products are incorrect. D) Some of the products do not show the correct powers of x.

Answer:

Option D) The signs on some of the products are incorrect.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's gather the data:

The product involves two numbers: (-2x-1) and (2x-1)

Multiplying the two numbers gives:

(-2x-1)(2x-1) = -4x^{2} +2x-2x+1\\                   = -4x^{2} + 1

Let's analyse the product:

The coefficient of x = -4 (negative 4)

1 carries a positive sign (+1)

Therefore, incorrect signs were assigned to the numbers.

Hence option D is the correct answer.

For what values of x is f(x) = |x + 1| differentiable? I'm struggling my butt off for this course
pav-90 [236]

By definition of absolute value, you have

f(x) = |x+1| = \begin{cases}x+1&\text{if }x+1\ge0 \\ -(x+1)&\text{if }x+1

or more simply,

f(x) = \begin{cases}x+1&\text{if }x\ge-1\\-x-1&\text{if }x

On their own, each piece is differentiable over their respective domains, except at the point where they split off.

For <em>x</em> > -1, we have

(<em>x</em> + 1)<em>'</em> = 1

while for <em>x</em> < -1,

(-<em>x</em> - 1)<em>'</em> = -1

More concisely,

f'(x) = \begin{cases}1&\text{if }x>-1\\-1&\text{if }x

Note the strict inequalities in the definition of <em>f '(x)</em>.

In order for <em>f(x)</em> to be differentiable at <em>x</em> = -1, the derivative <em>f '(x)</em> must be continuous at <em>x</em> = -1. But this is not the case, because the limits from either side of <em>x</em> = -1 for the derivative do not match:

\displaystyle \lim_{x\to-1^-}f'(x) = \lim_{x\to-1}(-1) = -1

\displaystyle \lim_{x\to-1^+}f'(x) = \lim_{x\to-1}1 = 1

All this to say that <em>f(x)</em> is differentiable everywhere on its domain, <em>except</em> at the point <em>x</em> = -1.
