Antonia is keeping track of the number of pages she reads. She started the school year having already read 95 pages her book, an

d she then reads 20 pages each day. The function for her total pages read is f(x) = 20x + 95. What do f(x) and x represent in Antonia's situation?

F(x) means "function of" and x represents the day number, example: day 6 would be f(6)=(20×6)+95

Answer:

(no global maxima found)

Step-by-step explanation:

Find and classify the global extrema of the following function:

f(x) = 4 x^4 - 2 x^3 + x - 5

Hint: | Global extrema of f(x) can occur only at the critical points or the endpoints of the domain.

Find the critical points of f(x):

Compute the critical points of 4 x^4 - 2 x^3 + x - 5

Hint: | To find critical points, find where f'(x) is zero or where f'(x) does not exist. First, find the derivative of 4 x^4 - 2 x^3 + x - 5.

To find all critical points, first compute f'(x):

d/( dx)(4 x^4 - 2 x^3 + x - 5) = 16 x^3 - 6 x^2 + 1:

f'(x) = 16 x^3 - 6 x^2 + 1

Hint: | Find where f'(x) is zero by solving 16 x^3 - 6 x^2 + 1 = 0.

Solving 16 x^3 - 6 x^2 + 1 = 0 yields x≈-0.303504:

x = -0.303504

Hint: | Find where f'(x) = 16 x^3 - 6 x^2 + 1 does not exist.

f'(x) exists everywhere:

16 x^3 - 6 x^2 + 1 exists everywhere

Hint: | Collect results.

The only critical point of 4 x^4 - 2 x^3 + x - 5 is at x = -0.303504:

x = -0.303504

Hint: | Determine the endpoints of the domain of f(x).

The domain of 4 x^4 - 2 x^3 + x - 5 is R:

The endpoints of R are x = -∞ and ∞

Hint: | Evaluate f(x) at the critical points and at the endpoints of the domain, taking limits if necessary.

Evaluate 4 x^4 - 2 x^3 + x - 5 at x = -∞, -0.303504 and ∞:

The open endpoints of the domain are marked in gray

x | f(x)

-∞ | ∞

-0.303504 | -5.21365

∞ | ∞

Hint: | Determine the largest and smallest values that f achieves at these points.

The largest value corresponds to a global maximum, and the smallest value corresponds to a global minimum:

The open endpoints of the domain are marked in gray

x | f(x) | extrema type

-∞ | ∞ | global max

-0.303504 | -5.21365 | global min

∞ | ∞ | global max

Hint: | Finally, remove the endpoints of the domain where f(x) is not defined.

Remove the points x = -∞ and ∞ from the table

These cannot be global extrema, as the value of f(x) here is never achieved:

x | f(x) | extrema type

-0.303504 | -5.21365 | global min

Hint: | Summarize the results.

f(x) = 4 x^4 - 2 x^3 + x - 5 has one global minimum:

Answer: f(x) has a global minimum at x = -0.303504

Find the value of y when x equals 0 . -7x+3y=30
Aneli [31]
X is 0, so it cancels out the 7. So then 3 divided by 30 is 10. Y=10.
