A theorem states that if f is continuous on an interval I that contains one local extremum at c and if a local minimum occurs at

c, then f(c) is the absolute minimum of f on I, and if a local maximum occurs at c, then f(c) is the absolute maximum of f on I. Verify that the following function satisfies the conditions of this theorem on its domain. Then, find the location and value of the absolute extremum guaranteed by the theorem.
f(x)= -xe^-x/4 The function f(x) = -xe^-x/4 has an absolute extremum of Q at x=.?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the extremum of the function, you need to take the first derivative.f'(x) = (-x)'e^{-x/4} + (-x) (e^{-x/4})'

= e^{-x/4}(\frac{x-4}{4} )

This derivative = 0 if and only if x - 4 = 0, hence the extremum is at x = 4

To consider if it is local max or min, you need to consider the act of the function before and after x = 4 by making a table.

-\infty                                        4                                       +\infty

f(x)                 -                       0                +

                     \searrow                                         \nearrow

Hence x =4 is a  local min.

Korvikt [17]

Answer:

On the graphing calculator, use the function normCdf, where

  • lower bound = -9999
  • upper bound = 210
  • mean = 250
  • standard deviation = 46

It will result in normCdf(-9999,210,250,46) ≈ 0.192269 or 19.2269%

The height of the fence is irrelevant. The bottom of the ladder is 3+8 = 11 feet from the building. The window is 14ft above the ground:

BRAINLIESTT ASAP! PLEASE HELP ME :)
Maslowich

Step-by-step explanation:

\displaystyle y = Asin(Bx - C) + D

According to this trigonometric function, −C gives you the OPPOSITE terms of what they really are, so be EXTREMELY CAREFUL:

\displaystyle Phase\:[Horisontal]\:Shift → \frac{0}{\frac{1}{7}} = 0 \\ Period → \frac{2}{1}π = 2π

Therefore we have our answer.

Extended Information on the trigonometric function

\displaystyle Vertical\:Shift → D \\ Phase\:[Horisontal]\:Shift → \frac{C}{B} \\ Period → \frac{2}{B}π \\ Amplitude → |A|

NOTE: Sometimes, your <em>vertical shift</em> might tell you to shift your graph below or above the <em>midline</em> where the amplitude is.

I am joyous to assist you anytime.
