1 = 4
a2 = -2(a1) - 1
a2 = -2(4) - 1
a2 = -9
a3 = -2(a2) - 1
a3 = -2(9) - 1
a3 = -19
Can you do a4 and a5 and answer?
Answer:
x=-1
Step-by-step explanation:
2x+3/4(4x+16)=7
2x+(3x12)=7--->distributive property
2x+3x+12=7
5x+12=7--->addition property
5x=-5--->subtraction peroperty
x= -1---?division property
Answer: 9 fewer
Step-by-step explanation:
Add 13 and 11 which gives you 24. Then add 8 and 7 which gives you 15. Then subtract 24 - 15 which gives you a difference of 9.
Answer:
<em>A=3 and B=6</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Increasing and Decreasing Intervals of Functions</u>
Given f(x) as a real function and f'(x) its first derivative.
If f'(a)>0 the function is increasing in x=a
If f'(a)<0 the function is decreasing in x=a
If f'(a)=0 the function has a critical point in x=a
As we can see, the critical points may define open intervals where the function has different behaviors.
We have

Computing the first derivative:

We find the critical points equating f'(x) to zero

Simplifying by -6

We get the critical points

They define the following intervals

Thus A=3 and B=6
