Take the derivitive
f'(x)=3x^2+12x
find where it equals zero
it equal zero at x=0 and x=-4
find the y values
f(0)=-36
f(-4)=-4
the critical points are (0,-36) and (-4,-4)
make sign chart
evalutat f'(x) at x=-5 and x=-1 and x=1, and see their signs
f'(-5)=(+)
f'(-1)=(-)
f'(1)=(+)
see below attachment
max is where sign changes from (+) to (-)
min is where sign changes from (-) to (+)
so
max at (-4,-4)
min at (0,-36)
none of the options are correct, do you have te right problem?
I would guess that 4.25 pounds is another way to say 4 1/4 pounds, but without being given the answer choices, I can only give you an educated guess.
Answer:
0.1
Step-by-step explanation:
10,000 * (1/100,000) = 0.1
406.25
And for extra info to get to 406.25 you can just take 19,500 and divide it by 48
Answer:
74.22% probability that a family of four will spend more than $400.
Step-by-step explanation:
Problems of normally distributed samples can be solved using the z-score formula.
In a set with mean
and standard deviation
, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
In this problem, we have that:

What is the probability that a family of four will spend more than $400?
This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 400. So



has a pvalue of 0.2578.
So there is a 1-0.2578 = 0.7422 = 74.22% probability that a family of four will spend more than $400.
