Answer:

The function has at least 1 zero within the interval [-2,5].

Step-by-step explanation:

The intermediate value theorem states that, for a function continuous in a certain interval [a,b], then the function takes any value between f(a) and f(b) at some point within that interval.

This theorem has an important consequence:

If a function f(x) is continuous in an interval [a,b], and the sign of the function changes at the extreme points of the interval:

f(a)>0\\f(b) (or viceversa)

Then the function f(x) has at least one zero within the interval [a,b].

We can apply the theorem to this case. In fact, here we have a function f(x) continuous within the interval

[-2,5]

And we also know that the function changes sign at the extreme points of the interval:

f(-2)=-70

Therefore, the function has at least 1 zero within the interval [-2,5], so there is at least one point x' within this interval such that

f(x')=0

Step-by-step explanation:

∫ sin²(x) cos(x) dx

If u = sin(x), then du = cos(x) dx.

∫ u² du

⅓ u³ + C

⅓ sin³(x) + C

Evaluate between x=0 and x=π.

⅓ sin³(π) − ⅓ sin³(0)

The function has a maximum at (1, 3).

_____
You know it is not a minimum because the coefficient of the squared term is negative.

You know the vertex is (1, 3) because you match the pattern to
.. y = a(x -h)^2 +k
which has its vertex at (h, k).

Lunna [17]

Answer:

2 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

4 square yards to feet: 4*3 = 12ft

3 cows grazing grass at 2 ft per hour: 2*2 = 6 square ft per hour

Time taken: 12ft/6ft per hour = 2 hours
