Answer:

Only one extreme value of f(x) is possible.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the quadratic function of independent variable x which is f(x) = x² - 7x - 6 ......(1)

Now. the condition for extreme values of f(x) is \frac{df(x)}{dx} =0

Hence, differentiating both sides of equation (1) with respect to x, we get

\frac{df(x)}{dx} = 2x -7 = 0

⇒ x = 3.5.

So there is only one value of x for which f(x) has extreme value which is x = 3.5.

Therefore, only one extreme value of the given function is possible. (Answer)

The graph of f(x) was vertically translated down by a value of k to get the function g(x) = 5x + k. What is the value of k? A -7
Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

{\boxed{\text{A. }\math{k = -7}}

Step-by-step explanation:

The general rule for vertical translation of a function ƒ(x) ⟶ ƒ(x) + k .

A positive value of k means that the graph is shifted up by k units.

The graph of ƒ(x) was shifted from (0, 1) to (0, -6).

\text{The graph was shifted down by seven units, so }{\boxed{\mathbf{k = -7}}

One period of y = 4sin(x) is graphed below.What is the domain of y = 4sin(x)?
Alinara [238K]
The domain of this sine function is the entire set of real numbers. Since there is no real value of x for which sin(x) becomes undefined, then the entire set of reals is the domain.

(On the other hand, the range would be from -4 <= y <= 4, since the sine function can only have a value ranging from -1 to 1, and multiplying 4 expands that from -4 to 4.)
