Answer:

Since the value of f(0) is negative and the value of f(1) is positive, then there is at least one value of x between 0 and 1 for which f(x) =0.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation f(x) given is:

f(x) = x^3+6x-5

For x = 0. the value of the expression is:

f(0) = 0^3+0-5\\f(0) = -5

For x = 1, the value of the expression is:

f(1) = 1^3+6-5\\f(1)=2

Since the value of f(0) is negative and the value of f(1) is positive, then there is at least one value of x between 0 and 1 for which f(x) =0.

In other words, there is at least one solution for the equation between x=0 and x=1.

Among all pairs of numbers with a sum of 215, find the pair whose product is maximum. Write your answers as fractions reduced to
valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This is calculus, but I don't get fractions in the end. To maximize or minimize any function, you need to find the derivative of it, set it equal to 0, then solve for the critical values.

Our given equation is

x + y = 215 and we want to maximize the product, xy. Therefore,

y = 215 - x so its product in terms of x is

x(215-x) which is

215x -x^2.  The derivative of this is

215 - 2x. Set it equal to 0 to maximize it.

215 - 2x = 0 so

-2x = -215 and

x = 107.5.

Sub this in to solve for y:

y + 107.5 = 215 and

y = 107.5

The product is 11556.25, not that you need it.

2 sentences please! i know this is math ppl...
bulgar [2K]

Answer:

The hydrosphere is partially responsible for most of the weather that we can see. So if you remove it, our weather will change, but there still be something called weather, and this new weather will be drastically different to the one we know, because when you lose the hydrosphere, you lose things such as the water cycle.
