Answer:
f(x) = - 8
Explanation:
The given function is
f(x) =2x^2 -4x -6
The first step is to find the derivative of the function. Recall, if
y = ax^b
y' = abx^(b - 1)
Thus,
f'(x) = 4x - 4
We would equate f'(x) to zero and solve for x. We have
4x - 4 = 0
4x = 4
x = 4/4
x = 1
We would substitute x = 1 into the original function and solve for f(x) or y. It becomes
f(1) =2(1)^2 -4(1) - 6 = 2 - 4 - 6
f(1) = - 8
Thus, the minimum value is f(x) = - 8
This answer is most likely wrong, but this is what I had gotten.
Using the formula BxH divided by 2, I came up with an answer of 108.
Answer: x= 10
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of the trapezoid is given by:
A = (1/2) * (b1 + b2) * (h)
Where,
b1, b2: bases of the trapezoid
h: height
Substituting values we have:
91 = (1/2) * ((2 * 7) + b2) * (7)
Rewriting we have:
91 = (1/2) * (14 + b2) * (7)
(2/7) * 91 = 14 + b2
b2 = (2/7) * 91 - 14
b2 = 12 m
Answer:
The measure of the other base of the trapezoid is:
b2 = 12 m
