Answer:
yes
Step-by-step explanation:
the FIRST derivative of a function tells us the slope of a tangent line to the curve at any point. if is positive, then the curve must be increasing. If is negative, then the curve must be decreasing.
the SECOND derivative gives us the slope of the slope function (in other words how fast the slope of the original function changes, and if it is accelerating up - positive - or if it is avengers down - negative).
so, the first derivative would be fully sufficient to get the answer of if the slope of the function at that point is positive or negative.
but because it is only a "if" condition and not a "if and only if" condition, the statement is still true.
there are enough cases, where the slope is positive, but the second derivative is not > 0 (usually = 0).
but if even the second derivative is positive, then, yes, the slope of the original function must be positive too.
First picture:
You got the first two right (good job!), so I'll just tackle the third one. If you have to compute
, it means that you have to substitute
in place of
. Differently from the first two points, this will generate a new function, rather than a specific value:

Second picture:
Given the point
highlighted in the picture, you can deduce that the base is
units long (since it spans from
to
) and the height is
units long (because it spans from
to
). So, the area of the rectangle is the multiplication between base and height:

But we know that
, so we have

The domain of this function is given by the domain of the square root: we want its argument to be non, negative, so we have

But since the problem is symmetric, the answer is

You can only see the answer
because, if you choose
or
, the rectangle degenerates to a segment, and your exercise doesn't like this scenario, apparently

Answer:
$68.85
Step-by-step explanation:
19% of $85 is $16.15
$85 - $16.15 = $68.85
