Answer: 3/10
Step-by-step explanation:
Take the derivative of
to get
. Set that equal to 0 to find the critical points of the function. The critical points is when the slope is either 0 or undefined.
Now do:

There are quite a few more steps to actually find the minimum, but for this example you can automatically assume its a minimum because it is the only critical point of the function. Ill show you these extra steps tho.
Plug in two numbers into the derivative. One that is less than 3/10 and one that is greater than 3/10. The numbers 0 and 1 are fine. When x = 0, the function is -6. When x = 1, the function is +14. A switch from negative to positive indicates a minimum value
The LCD is x^2+3x+2 = (x+2)(x+1)
The goal is to get each fraction to have the denominator be equal to the LCD
Afterward we can add the fractions
x/(x^2+3x+2) + 3/(x+1)
x/((x+2)(x+1)) + 3/(x+1)
x/((x+2)(x+1)) + (3(x+2))/((x+2)(x+1))
(x+3(x+2))/((x+2)(x+1))
(x+3x+6)/(x^2+3x+2)
(4x+6)/(x^2+3x+2)
--------------------------------------------------
Final Answer: 4x+6
Note: you can factor 4x+6 to get 2(2x+3)
Answer:
The solution of the equation is
.
Step-by-step explanation:
The previous equations is for the Ohm's Law, which states that current (
), measured in amperes, is directly proportional to the voltage (
), measured in volts:

9 weeks because 12x9= 108 and 108 is more than Malik need to repay but 108-12=96 less than needed so it is 9 weeks
Answer:
7 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
25.75(total cost of the rental)
-10.00 (cost of initially renting the bike)
----------------
15.75$ (cost of hourly fees)
15.75/2.25(hourly rate) = 7
