Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Exponents with fractions in them are really just radical notation in a different form. You've probably seen the square root sign.
That can be written as
x^(1/2)
...and when you take an even root of a negative number, there is no real answer. (2 is an even number).
Looking at the answer choices here, we can see that B and D use even roots, so they will give non-real answers.
So, A and C are the answer choices to select.
The third diagram is the correct answer.
Answer:
60
Step-by-step explanation:
The least common multiple of 2 and 20 is 20.
The only factor that is shared with 20 and 3 is 1. Therefore, the least common multiple will have to be 20*3, which is 60.

<h3>Answers:</h3>
- (a) The function is increasing on the interval (0, infinity)
- (b) The function is decreasing on the interval (-infinity, 0)
=======================================================
Explanation:
You should find that the derivative is entirely negative whenever x < 0. This suggests that the function f(x) is decreasing on this interval. So that takes care of part (b).
The interval x < 0 is the same as -infinity < x < 0 which then translates to the interval notation (-infinity, 0)
Similarly, you should find that the derivative is positive when x > 0. So the function is increasing on the interval (0, infinity)
