For the polynomial function ƒ(x) = x4 − 12x3 + 46x2 − 60x + 25, find all local and global extrema.

1 answer:

4 0

$\bf f(x)=x^4-12x^3+46x^2-60x+25\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
\cfrac{df}{dx}=4x^3-36x^2+92x-60\implies 0=4x^3-36x^2+92x-60
\\\\\\
0=x^3-9x^2+23x-15\impliedby \textit{doing some synthetic division with 5}
\\\\\\
0=(x^2-4x+3)(x-5)\implies 0=(x-3)(x-1)(x-5)\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
\begin{cases}
f(1)=0\leftarrow minimum&1,0\\
f(3)=16\leftarrow maximum&3,16\\
f(5)=0\leftarrow minimum&5,0
\end{cases}\impliedby \textit{3 extrema, locals and globals}$

This is the 4th question

gavmur [86]

Answer:

a) There are 9 outcomes.

b) **i have attached the tree diagram**

c) 1/9

d) 1/9

Step-by-step explanation:

Both events (choosing a shirt and choosing pants) are not mutually exclusive (disjoint). Meaning that both events can occur at the same time.

a) For a sequence of two events in which the first event can occur m ways and the second event can occur n ways, the events together can occur a total of m • n ways. So for this problem, you would do 3 • 3 which equals 9.

b) **tree diagram is attached**

c) Because there are two different events occurring (choosing a shirt and choosing pants) you need to multiply using the Multiplication Rule for Independent Events : P(A and B) = P(A) * P(B)

The probability of event A occurring (choosing a red shirt) is 1/3 and the probability of event B occurring (choosing brown pants) is also 1/3.

1/3 * 1/3 = 1/9

d) You would do the same thing here as part c.

The probability of event A occurring (choosing a blue shirt) is 1/3 and the probability of event B occurring (choosing blue pants) is again 1/3.

1/3 * 1/3 = 1/9

I hope this was helpful!! :)

Which has the bigger surface area? Jamal's, which is 3 by 3 by 4 ft, or Andy's, which is 4 by 2 by 5 ft and why?

oksano4ka [1.4K]

Jamal-3 x 3 = 9 x 4 = 36

Andy- 4 x 2 = 8 x 5 = 45

Andy's surface area is bigger.

You’ve been asked to order cake for your school dance. Here’s a formula for the scenario: z=xa/y

olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

The number of cake for order is 15 cakes .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

Total number of people to attend the dance = x = 60

The number of slices each person will eat = A = 2 slices

The number of slices per cake = y = 8 slices

Let The number of cake for order = z

Now, According to question

Total slices of cake required for 60 people when each people eat 2 slices = total number of people × number of slices each person will eat

i.e Total slices of cake required for 60 people when each people eat 2 slices = x × A

Or, Total slices of cake required for 60 people when each people eat 2 slices = 60 × 2 slices

Or,Total slices of cake required for 60 people when each people eat 2 slices = 120 slices

Again

∵ number of slices per cake = 8

∴ The number of cake for order = $\dfrac{\textrm Total slices of cake required for 60 people when each people eat 2 slices}{\textrm number of slices per cake }$
