Identify this coefficient 8x

1 answer:

galben [10]2 years ago

5 0

Answer:

8

Step-by-step explanation:

The term 8x is a product (as is any term). It is the product of a constant coefficient (8) and a variable (x). The "coefficient" is the multiplier of the variable of interest, so is 8 in this term.

_____

The word "coefficient" is often used to refer to the constant multiplier in any term. For example, in the term 6xy, if we just ask for the coefficient, we are interested in the value 6.

On the other hand, if we ask for the coefficient of y in that term, we expect to be told it is <em>6x</em>. That is, the "coefficient" is the multiplier of the specified variable or constellation of variables.

Consider the function f ( x ) = − 2 x 3 + 27 x 2 − 108 x + 9 . For this function there are three important open intervals: ( − [

Darya [45]

Answer:

<em>A=3 and B=6</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Increasing and Decreasing Intervals of Functions</u>

Given f(x) as a real function and f'(x) its first derivative.

If f'(a)>0 the function is increasing in x=a

If f'(a)<0 the function is decreasing in x=a

If f'(a)=0 the function has a critical point in x=a

As we can see, the critical points may define open intervals where the function has different behaviors.

We have

$f ( x ) = - 2 x^3 + 27 x^2 - 108 x + 9$

Computing the first derivative:

$f' ( x ) = - 6 x^3 + 54 x - 108$

We find the critical points equating f'(x) to zero

$- 6 x^3 + 54 x - 108=0$

Simplifying by -6

$x^2 -9 x +18=0$

We get the critical points

$x=3,\ x=6$

They define the following intervals

$(-\infty,3),\ (3,6),\ (6,+\infty)$

Thus A=3 and B=6

22. One kilometer is approximately 0.62 mile. What fraction represents this length?

bixtya [17]

<u><em>Answer:</em></u>

One kilometer is $\frac{31}{50}$ miles

<u><em>Explanation:</em></u>

<u>To convert a decimal to a fraction:</u>

1- Write the decimal as a fraction whose denominator is 1

2- Multiply both numerator and denominator by multiples of 10 to eliminate the decimal point

3- Simplify the fraction you have

<u>Now, for the given problem:</u>

<u>The given decimal is 0.62, following the above steps:</u>

<u>Step 1: </u>

$0.62 = \frac{0.62}{1}$

<u>Step 2:</u>

We have two digits after the decimal point, so to eliminate the decimal point, we will multiply the numerator and the denominator by 100

$0.62 = \frac{0.62}{1} * \frac{100}{100} = \frac{62}{100}$

<u>Step 3:</u>

We can note that, in the fraction obtained from step 2, both the numerator and the denominator are divisible by 2, so we simplify as follows:

$\frac{62}{100} = \frac{62/2}{100/2} =\frac{31}{50}$

Hope this helps :)
