Help with num 9 please. thanks​
Alik [6]

Answer:

See Below.

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to show that the function:

f(x) = e^x - e^{-x}

Increases for all values of <em>x</em>.

A function is increasing whenever its derivative is positive.

So, find the derivative of our function:

\displaystyle f'(x) = \frac{d}{dx}\left[e^x - e^{-x}\right]

Differentiate:

\displaystyle f'(x) = e^x - (-e^{-x})

Simplify:

f'(x) = e^x+e^{-x}

Since eˣ is always greater than zero and e⁻ˣ is also always greater than zero, f'(x) is always positive. Hence, the original function increases for all values of <em>x.</em>

5 2/5 as a mixed number
valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

Mixed numbers have a whole number followed by the fraction (2 1/2). You would say "two and one half." The other format is an improper fraction where the numerator is greater than the denominator (5/2). Mathematicians would say that is five halves.
