Answer:

The correct option is D) 140°

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided figure.

When two parallel lines intersect by a transverse, then the corresponding angles are equal in measure.

Here the corresponding angles are:

m∠1 = m∠5 and m∠2 = m∠6

m∠3 = m∠7 and m∠4 = m∠8

We need to find the measure of angle 5. It is given that m∠1 = 140°

From the above we know that m∠1 = m∠5, thus

m∠5 = 140°

Hence, the correct option is D) 140°

10. Determine the open interval(s) on which the function f(x) = 12x - x^3 is increasing.

Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

$\large\boxed{x\in(-2,\ 2)}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$f(x)=12x-x^3$

Calculate the derivative of the function:

$f'(x)=\left(12x-x^3\right)'=(12x)'-\left(x^3\right)'=12-3x^2$

Calculate the zeros of the derivative:

$f'(x)=0\Rightarrow12-3x^2=0\qquad\text{add}\ 3x^2\ \text{to both sides}\\\\3x^2=12\qquad\text{divide both sides by 3}\\\\x^2=4\to x=\pm\sqrt4\\\\x=\pm2$

Let's check the derivative sign:

$f'(x)>0\iff12-3x^2>0\qquad\text{use the distributive property}\\\\-3(x^2-4)>0\\\\-3(x^2-2^2)>0\qquad\text{use}\ a^2-b^2=(a-b)(a+b)\\\\-3(x-2)(x+2)>0\\^{\qquad x=2\qquad x=-2$

Sketch a parabola open down

(before the brackets there is the number -3 < 0)

Look at the picture.

Where the derivative is negative, the function decreases.

Where the derivative is positive, the function increases.

Therefore your answer is:

$x\in(-2,\ 2)$

How to determine the amount of zeroes of a function?

My name is Ann [436]

You can determine this by doing b² - 4ac (using the values in the quadratic function) and see if it is greater than zero, less than, or equal to. If it is greater, then it has 2 x-intercepts or zeroes. If it equals zero, then you have one x-intercept. If it equals less than zero, you have no x-intercepts.
