Graph y = 3(x + 2)3 - 3 and describe the end behavior.

Mathematics
1 answer:
-BARSIC- [3]3 years ago
3 0
1) The function is 3(x + 2)³ - 3

2) The end behaviour is the limits when x approaches +/- infinity.

3) Since the polynomial is of odd degree you can predict that the ends head off in opposite direction. The limits confirm that.

4) The limit when x approaches negative infinity is negative infinity, then the left end of the function heads off downward (toward - ∞).

5) The limit when x approaches positive infinity is positivie infinity, then the right end of the function heads off upward (toward + ∞).

6) To graph the function it is important to determine:
- x-intercepts
- y-intercepts
- critical points: local maxima, local minima, and inflection points.


7) x-intercepts ⇒ y = 0

⇒ <span>3(x + 2)³ - 3 = 0 ⇒ (x + 2)³ - 1 = 0
</span>

<span>⇒ (x + 2)³ = -1 ⇒ x + 2 =  1 ⇒ x = - 1
</span>

8) y-intercepts ⇒ x = 0

y = <span>3(x + 2)³ - 3 = 3(0 + 2)³ - 3 = 0 - 3×8 - 3 = 24 - 3 = 21
</span><span>
</span><span>
</span><span>9) Critical points ⇒ first derivative = 0
</span><span>
</span><span>
</span><span>i) dy / dx = 9(x + 2)² = 0
</span><span>
</span><span>
</span><span>⇒ x + 2 = 0 ⇒ x = - 2
</span><span>
</span><span>
</span><span>ii) second derivative: to determine where x = - 2  is a local maximum, a local  minimum, or an inflection point.
</span><span>
</span><span>
</span><span>y'' = 18 (x + 2); x = - 2 ⇒ y'' = 0 ⇒ inflection point.
</span><span>
</span><span>
</span><span>Then the function does not have local minimum nor maximum, but an inflection point at x =  -2.
</span><span>
</span><span>
</span><span>Using all that information you can graph the function, and I attache the figure with the graph.

A pizza place charges $5.00 for a cheese pizza and $1.75 for each additional topping. Which equation models the total price of a
inysia [295]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation: This is c because 1.75 t is right because they don't know how many toppings you are going to put on but they do know how much you will automatically have to pay for the pizza itself. That is why it is 1.75t(toppings) plus the 5 dollars for pizza.

Hope this helps!

Stephanie rdes her bike 2 miles to the post office, and then another 50 yards to the train station. How many yards long was her
mestny [16]
There are 1,760 yards in a mile.

Multiply 1,760 by 2 = 3,520

Add 50 to 3,520 = 3,570

Stephanie's trip was 3,570 yards long.

What ratio forms a proportion with 14/42?<br> A. 1/4<br> B. 7/21<br> C. 12/40<br> D. 28/80
koban [17]

Hey there!

"What ratio forms a proportion with \frac{14}{42} ?"

              - \frac{14}{45} =0.56 (for the decimal)

  • A) \frac{1}{4} =0.25 (incorrect)
  • B) \frac{7}{21} =0.33 (Incorrect)
  • C) \frac{12}{40} 0.3 (incorrect)
  • D) \frac{28}{80} 0.7 (incorrect)

But in order for you to solve this particular equation you'd have to go in with two (like multiplying by two)

  • 1\times2= 2 ;   4\times2 = 8 (incorrect)
  • 7\times 2= 14 ; 21\times2 = 42 (correct)
  • 12 \times2 = 24 ; 40\times 2 = 80 (incorrect)
  • 2 \times 28 = 56 ; 2\times 80 = 160 (incorrect)

Your result: \boxed{Answer: B. \frac{7}{21} }

Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!

Solve this equation -4(X-26)=-200
jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

x = 76

Step-by-step explanation:

First, distribute -4:

-4x + 104 = -200

Isolate x:

-4x = -200 - 104 = -304

x = -304/-4 = 76
