Hi there!
Begin by differentiating f(x) using the power rule:
dy/dx = nxⁿ⁻¹
Therefore:
f(x) = 3x² - 5x + 10
f'(x) = 6x - 5
Set this equation equal to 0 to find the x-intercept:
0 = 6x - 5
5 = 6x
x = 5/6, which is where the graph goes from NEGATIVE to POSITIVE, so there is a MINIMUM at this value.
Answer:
Slope: Be inclined from a horizontal or vertical line; slant up or down. Slope formula is m=rise/run
Y-Intercept: The vertical axis represents a variable y, a y-intercept or vertical intercept is a point where the graph of a function or relation intersects the y-axis of the coordinate system.
Answer:
yes, 18 is a polynomial
Step-by-step explanation:
We have to show whether 18 is a polynomial or not
Polynomial is an expression involving variables and constants such that variables having non negative integer power.
Example etc,
Thus, yes 18 is a polynomial
as 18 can be written as where
and 0 is non negative integer,
Thus, yes 18 is a polynomial as it can be written as having non negative integer power 0.
Answer:
103, 776
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 48 possibilities, and you are picking 3.
Now, the order does matter (aka, if the same 3 athletes won but got different places, we would still consider it to be a separate possibility)
(this is considered "without repetitions")
the number of permutations (arrangement combinations where the order does matter) without repetitions formula:
Number of permutations
without <em>repetitions </em>= nPr
=
(
[the P is for combinations [where the order does matter, if the order didn't matter then it would be C, and it would be a different formula.]
n is the total number of objects.
r is the number of objects selected]
<em>(a repetition would be like two versions of the same person competing, which doesn't make sense)</em>
{the ! means factorial:
5! = 5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1}
{for example, if there are 5 people to give a presentation, and they can go in any order [but cannot repeat their presentation], so they all must fill 5 slots}
{for the first slot there are 5 choices, the second slot there are 4 choices...}
)
So, if we follow this formula:
n: 48
r: 3
=
=
(the 45! cancel out)
= 48 * 47 * 46
= 103, 776
(or, without the formula:
for the first choice (lets say of gold), there are 48 options
for the second choice (lets say silver), there are 47 options left to choose from
for the third choice (lets say bronze), there are 46 options left to choose from
)
