A ) The domain:
x^{4} -16 x^{2}  \geq 0 \\  x^{2} ( x^{2} -16) \geq 0 \\  x^{2} -16 \geq 0 \\  x^{2}  \geq 16
x ≤ -4  and x≥ 4  or:  x ∈ ( - ∞ , - 4 ) ∪ ( 4  , + ∞ )
b ) f ` ( x ) = \frac{1}{2 \sqrt{ x^{4} -16 x^{2} } } *( 4 x^{3} - 32 x ) = \\ = \frac{2x( x^{2} -8)}{ \sqrt{ x^{4}-16 x^{2}  } }
c ) The slope of the line normal to the graph at x = 5
m = -1 / f `(x)
f ` ( x ) = \frac{10(25-8)}{ \sqrt{625-400} }=  \frac{10*17}{15} = \frac{34}{3}
m = - 3/34

Grace and her brother Sid want to raise money to go to band camp. Their parents have agreed to help them earn up to $400 by payi
LenKa [72]

Answer:

25m + 10b = 400

Step-by-step explanation:

Total amount that can be earned = $ 400

Amount earned on mowing a lawn = $ 25

Amount earned per hour on babysitting = $10

Amount earned for mowing one lawn is $ 25, so amount earned for mowing m lawns will be $ 25m

Amount earned for one hour of babysitting is $ 10, so amount earned for babysitting for b hours will be $ 10b

Total amount earned = Amount earned from mowing m lawns + Amount earned from babysitting for b hours

Using the values from above, we can set up the equation as:

400 = 25m + 10b

or

25m + 10b = 400

This equation represents the number of lawns they can mow, m, and hours they can babysit, b, to earn $400.

The bar diagram represents 24 hours in one day and shows a mark at 30%If you sleep 30% of the day, how many hours do you sleep?
horrorfan [7]

Let:

100%---------------->24h

30%------------------>xh

Using cross multiplication:

\begin{gathered} \frac{100}{30}=\frac{24}{x} \\ solve_{\text{ }}for_{\text{ }}x\colon \\ x=\frac{30\cdot24}{100} \\ x=\frac{720}{100}=7.2h \end{gathered}

A botanist was measuring how tall her plant grew. After two weeks it had grown 12.93 inches.The second week alone it had grown 3
Korolek [52]

Answer:

  9.5 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The relationship is presumed to be ...

  (first week's growth) + (second week's growth) = (growth in two weeks)

  (first week's growth) + 3.43 inches = 12.93 inches . . . . . fill in the numbers

Subtract 3.43 from both sides of the equation:

  first week's growth = 12.93 inches - 3.43 inches

  first week's growth = 9.50 inches

The plant grew 9.50 inches in the first week.
