Answer:

  • range: (-∞, 29.4336]
  • min: -∞
  • max: 29.4336

Step-by-step explanation:

I found these using a graphing calculator. (See attached)

The function is a polynomial of 4th degree with a negative leading coefficient. (The coefficient of the 4th-degree term is -3.) Therefore, it opens downward and has a range that extends to -∞. This function only has one global maximum and no local minimum.

_____

The maximum can be found by solving the cubic equation that results from taking the derivative of this function and finding the root of that:

  df/dx = -12x^3 -2x -20 = 0

There are formulas for the solutions of a cubic, but the one negative real root of this cubic can be found easily with a graphing calculator using iteration:

  x ≈ -1.13879908894.

Dividing by -2, the above derivative function can be written as ...

  g(x) = 6x^3 +x +10

The one real zero of it can be found using Newton's Method iteration.

The Newton's Method iterator function is

  h(x) = x - g(x)/g'(x)

where g'(x) is the derivative of g(x), often available as a function on the graphing calculator.

The starting value for the iteration can be the x-value obtained from the graph: -1.139. It only takes about 2 or 3 iterations to find x to the precision of the calculator: x = h(h(x)). This x is the x-coordinate of the maximum, so f(x) is the maximum value: 29.4335546516.

__

The attachments show the function definitions and their use for finding the maximum of f(x) using a TI-84 calculator. Y₁ is the function f(x); Y₂ is its derivative, shown above as g(x). Y₃ is the iterating function, shown above as h(x). The nDeriv( ) function is a calculator function that finds the numerical derivative of its argument.

Solve 3x-2/4 - 2x+5/3 = 1-x/6
Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

Pasos para resolver una ecuación lineal

3x−2/4−2x+5/3=1−x/6

Multiplique ambos lados de la ecuación por 12, el mínimo común denominador de 4,3,6.

36x−3×2−24x+20=12−2x

Multiplica −3 y 2 para obtener −6.

36x−6−24x+20=12−2x

Combina 36x y −24x para obtener 12x.

12x−6+20=12−2x

Suma −6 y 20 para obtener 14.

12x+14=12−2x

Agrega 2x a ambos lados.

12x+14+2x=12

Combina 12x y 2x para obtener 14x.

14x+14=12

Resta 14 en los dos lados.

14x=12−14

Resta 14 de 12 para obtener −2.

14x=−2

Divide los dos lados por 14.

x=
