Answer:
a) d²y/dx² = ½ x + y − ½
b) Relative minimum
Step-by-step explanation:
a) Take the derivative with respect to x.
dy/dx = ½ x + y − 1
d²y/dx² = ½ + dy/dx
d²y/dx² = ½ + (½ x + y − 1)
d²y/dx² = ½ x + y − ½
b) At (0, 1), the first and second derivatives are:
dy/dx = ½ (0) + (1) − 1
dy/dx = 0
d²y/dx² = ½ (0) + (1) − ½
d²y/dx² = ½
The first derivative is 0, and the second derivative is positive (concave up). Therefore, the point is a relative minimum.
Answer:
a₄=8n+1= -39.
Step-by-step explanation:
1) if a₁=3n; a₃=5n-6 and a₅=11n+8, then it is possible to calculate the difference according to 0.5(a₅-a₃)=0.5(a₃-a₁). Then
2) 0.5(11n+8-5n+6)=0.5(5n-6-3n); ⇔ 6n+14=2n-6; ⇔ n= -5.
3) if n=-5, then the 4th term is:

or a₄=-39.
