Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Move all terms to the left side and set equal to zero. Then set each factor equal to zero.
Answer:
x = 9 or x = 0 or x = -2
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve for x:
3 x^3 - 21 x^2 - 54 x = 0
The left hand side factors into a product with four terms:
3 x (x - 9) (x + 2) = 0
Divide both sides by 3:
x (x - 9) (x + 2) = 0
Split into three equations:
x - 9 = 0 or x = 0 or x + 2 = 0
Add 9 to both sides:
x = 9 or x = 0 or x + 2 = 0
Subtract 2 from both sides:
Answer: x = 9 or x = 0 or x = -2
F(x) is a piecewise function defined as:
f(x) = (3/2)x when 0 <= x <= 2
or
f(x) = -(3/2)x+6 when 2 < x <= 4
g(x) is defined as:
g(x) = -(1/4)x+1 when 0 <= x <= 4
Based on the graph or through the equations we can say:
f(1) = (3/2)*1 = 1.5
g(1) = -(1/4)*1+1 = 0.75
f(3) = (3/2)*3 = 4.5
g(3) = -(1/4)*3+1 = 0.25
And the derivative values are:
f ' (1) = 3/2 = 1.5
f ' (3) = -3/2 = -1.5
g ' (1) = -1/4 = -0.25
g ' (3) = -1/4 = -0.25
which are the slopes of each line
So...
h(x) = f(x)*g(x)
h ' (x) = f ' (x)*g(x) + f(x)*g ' (x) ... product rule
h ' (1) = f ' (1)*g(1) + f(1)*g ' (1)
h ' (1) = 1.5*0.75 + 1.5*(-0.25)
h ' (1) = 0.75
and,
h(x) = f(x)*g(x)
h ' (x) = f ' (x)*g(x) + f(x)*g ' (x)
h ' (3) = f ' (3)*g(3) + f(3)*g ' (3)
h ' (3) = -1.5*0.25 + 4.5*(-0.25)
h ' (3) = -1.5
Answer:
The vertical line test is a way for you to see if a graph represents a function. It allows you to identify if any x values have more than one y value.
A graph would be a function if every input (x) has exactly one output (y). A graph would not be a function if an input (x) has more than one output (y).
Step-by-step explanation:
In a function, every input within the domain of the function must have exactly one output. If the graph has an input that has more than one output, then it is not a function. The vertical line test is what allows you to see if a graph is a function or not.
