Answer:

The minimum value for  f(x) = 0.15(x + 1)^2 - 3 is -3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given function is f(x) = 0.15(x + 1)^2 - 3

We need to find the maximum value or the minimum value for the function.

Now, differentiate f(x) = 0.15(x + 1)^2 - 3  w.r.t x.

f'(x) =\frac{d}{dx}(0.15(x + 1)^2 - 3)\\f'(x)=\frac{d}{dx}(0.15(x+1)^2-\frac{d}{dx}(3)\\

f'(x)=2\times 0.15(x+1)\frac{d}{dx}(x+1)-0\\f'(x)=0.3(x+1)(1)\\f'(x)=0.3(x+1)

Now, we will equate f'(x)=0 to find critical point.

0.3(x+1)=0\\x=-1

Plug this critical point in to the function f(x) = 0.15(x + 1)^2 - 3  we get,

f(-1) = 0.15(-1 + 1)^2 - 3\\f(-1)=-3

Also, f''(x)=0.3 which is positive, We have minimum value.

So, the minimum value for  f(x) = 0.15(x + 1)^2 - 3 is -3.

Find the value of x in the given figure using parallel lines
pantera1 [17]

Answer:

x = 18 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

because lines n and m are parallel, 3x and 126 are same side interior angles. This means that when added up they equal 180, so make an equation as so:

3x + 126 = 180

Solve for it and x will equal 18.

Help plea i am beg screenshot in
stiv31 [10]

Answer:

SA = 105 in^2

Step-by-step explanation:

To find surface area, find the area of all the shapes and add it all together. This shape has 4 triangle faces. They are all the same. So we can find one of them and times by 4.

Area of a triangle:

A = 1/2b•h

= 1/2• 5 • 8

= 1/2 • 40

= 20

One triangle has area 20, so times by 4 (bc four triangles)

4•20

= 80

Area of square 5•5

= 25

Add the areas:

80 + 25

= 105 sq in
