Answer:
A is f ", B is f, C is f '.
Step-by-step explanation:
Your answer is correct. B is the original function f. It has a local maximum at x=0, and local minimums at approximately x=-3/2 and x=3/2.
C is the first derivative. It crosses the x-axis at each place where B is a min or max. C itself has a local maximum at approximately x=-3/4 and a local minimum at approximately x=3/4.
Finally, A is the second derivative. It crosses the x-axis at each place where C is a min or max.
Answer: x = -14/5
Step-by-step explanation: We shall begin by expanding the brackets for both sides of the equation
-2/3 (x + 2) = 1/6 (x + 6)
(-2x/3) -4/3 = (x/6) + 1
By collecting like terms we now have
(-2x/3) - (x/6) = 1 + 4/3
(-4x - x)/6 = 7/3
-5x/6 = 7/3
By cross multiplication we now have
-5x (3) = 7 (6)
-15x = 42
x = -(42/15) {simplify further by dividing the RHS by 3}
x = -14/5
Therefore x equals, minus fourteen over five (-14/5)
