Answer:15

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to divide the fractions so it 3/4÷1/10 then you can do keep change flip so the new equation is 3/4×10/1 or 3/4×10 then cross simply then get 3/2×5/1 to get 15/2 then use division to get 7 1/2

A rectangle sandbox has a width of 5 feet. Tbe sandbox is 5 times as long as it is wide. What is the perimeter of the sandbox?

NikAS [45]

The perimeter of the sandbox is 60 ft.
5x5=25
Two sides = 25, so 25+25 = 50.
Two other sides = 5, so 5+5=10
50+10 = 60, and that is the correct answer.

Consider the following. f(x) = x5 − x3 + 6, −1 ≤ x ≤ 1 (a) Use a graph to find the absolute maximum and minimum values of the fu

kykrilka [37]

ANSWER

See below

EXPLANATION

Part a)

The given function is

$f(x) = {x}^{5} - {x}^{3} + 6$

From the graph, we can observe that, the absolute maximum occurs at (-0.7746,6.1859) and the absolute minimum occurs at (0.7746,5.8141).

b) Using calculus, we find the first derivative of the given function.

$f'(x) = 5 {x}^{4} - 3 {x}^{2}$

At turning point f'(x)=0.

$5 {x}^{4} - 3 {x}^{2} = 0$

This implies that,

${x}^{2} (5 {x}^{2} - 3) = 0$

${x}^{2} = 0 \: or \: 5 {x}^{2} - 3 = 0$

$x = - \frac{ \sqrt{15} }{5} \: or \: x = 0 \: \: or \: x =\frac{ \sqrt{15} }{5}$

We plug this values into the original function to obtain the y-values of the turning points

$( - \frac{ \sqrt{15} }{5} , \frac{1}{125} ( 6 \sqrt{15} +750)) \:and \: (0, - 6) \: and\: ( \frac{ \sqrt{15} }{5} , \frac{1}{125} ( - 6 \sqrt{15} +750))$
