Answer:

a) The critical points for the function include x = 0 and x = 5.

b) The function is increasing when x < 0 and when x > 5.

The function is decreasing when 0 < x < 5.

c) The function has a local minimum at x=5, no known maximum point could be obtained though (no local maximum exists).

Step-by-step explanation:

f'(x) = x⁻⁰•³³³³ (x - 5)

At critical points,

f'(x) = 0

x⁻⁰•³³³³(x - 5) = 0

x⁻⁰•³³³³ = 0 or (x-5) = 0

x = 0 or x = 5

b) A function is said to be increasing when

f'(x) > 0.

and it is said to be decreasing when

f'(x) < 0.

To investigate the region's of increasing or decreasing function.

f'(x) = x⁻⁰•³³³³ (x - 5)

with solutions of x=0 and x=5 at critical points. So, we check the behaviour of f'(x) around the critical points.

x < 0, 0 < x < 5, x > 5

x < 0 | 0 < x < 5 | x > 5 | function

-ve |||| positive ||| +ve | (x⁻⁰•³³³³)

-ve |||| negative || +ve | (x - 5)

+ve | negative | +ve | x⁻⁰•³³³³ (x - 5)

f'(x) = x⁻⁰•³³³(x - 5) > 0 when x < 0 and x > 5.

f'(x) = x⁻⁰•³³³³ (x - 5) < 0 when 0 < x < 5.

c) At maximum point, f"(x) < 0

And at minimum point, f"(x) > 0

f'(x) = x⁻⁰•³³³³ (x - 5) = x⁰•⁶⁶⁷ - 5x⁻⁰•³³³³

f'(x) = x⁰•⁶⁶⁷ - 5x⁻⁰•³³³³

f"(x) = (2/3) x⁻⁰•³³³³ - (-5/3)x⁻¹•³³³³

f"(x) = (2/3) x⁻⁰•³³³³ + (5/3)x⁻¹•³³³³

So, inserting the critical points, 0 and 5

At x = 0,

f"(x) = (2/3) (0)⁻⁰•³³³³ + (5/3)(0)⁻¹•³³³³ = 0.

This means that, the point x = 0 isn't a maximum or minimum point.

At x = 5

f"(x) = (2/3) (5)⁻⁰•³³³³ + (5/3)(5)⁻¹•³³³³

= 0.390 + 0.195 = 0.585 > 0

This corresponds to a minimum point.

Hope this Helps!!!

miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

The missing information is how much was the unit rate for the adult tickets.

Step-by-step explanation:

You need the missing information about the unit rate for the adult tickets because without that, you cannot answer how much you earned for the play in total. But with the information that we have, we can safely say that we earned 560$ from the students ticket. 560 is not the final answer.

It's a linear function, so you only need 2 points and then connect them together.

Easiest way: x = 0 ->y = 1 ->(0,1)

x = 1->y = 15 ->(1,15)
