Evaluate -2/3 + 5/6

1 answer:

4 0

Answer: .16 Well, we can just call this a simple negative two divided by three plus 5 divided by 6. Using the *cough order of *cough *cough operations, or GEMA, we can see that we can separate this expression into two.

-2/3+5/6

(-2/3) + (5/6)

By simplifying each side of the expression, we will receive:

-.6 + .83 ["Negative point six repeating plus point 8, 3 repeating"]

This adds up to .16, or point 1, six repeating.

Determine the values of the constants b and c so that the function given below is differentiable. f(x)={2xbx2+cxx≤1x>1

Lera25 [3.4K]

Assuming the function is

$f(x)=\begin{cases}2x&\text{for }x\le1\\bx^2+cx&\text{for }x>1\end{cases}$

For $f(x)$ to be differentiable, it necessarily has to be continuous. For this condition to be met, we need

$\displaystyle\lim_{x\to1^-}f(x)=\lim_{x\to1^+}f(x)=f(1)$
$\iff\displaystyle\lim_{x\to1}2x=\lim_{x\to1}(bx^2+cx)$
$\iff2=b+c$

For the derivative to exist, the one-sided limits of the derivative must also exist and be equal. We have

$f'(x)=\begin{cases}2&\text{for }x1\end{cases}$

$\displaystyle\lim_{x\to1^-}2=\lim_{x\to1^+}(2bx+c)$
$\iff2=2b+c$

Now we solve for $b$ and $c$ :

$\begin{cases}b+c=2\\2b+c=2\end{cases}\implies b=0,c=2$
