Answer: x = - 9 is greater

Step-by-step explanation:

-2(5-x)-15 is greater than 12(x+1)-10(x-3)

-2(5-x)-15

-10 - 2x - 15

-2x -15 -10

-2x -25

x = -25/-2

x = - 12,5

12(x+1)-10(x-3)

12x + 12 - 10x -30

2x -18

x= -18/2

x = - 9

Given the position of the particle, what the position(s) of the particle when it’s at rest

choli [55]

The position function of a particle is given by:

$X\mleft(t\mright)=\frac{2}{3}t^3-\frac{9}{2}t^2-18t$

The velocity function is the derivative of the position:

$\begin{gathered} V(t)=\frac{2}{3}(3t^2)-\frac{9}{2}(2t)-18 \\ \text{Simplifying:} \\ V(t)=2t^2-9t-18 \end{gathered}$

The particle will be at rest when the velocity is 0, thus we solve the equation:

$2t^2-9t-18=0$

The coefficients of this equation are: a = 2, b = -9, c = -18

Solve by using the formula:

$t=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt[]{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$

Substituting:

$\begin{gathered} t=\frac{9\pm\sqrt[]{81-4(2)(-18)}}{2(2)} \\ t=\frac{9\pm\sqrt[]{81+144}}{4} \\ t=\frac{9\pm\sqrt[]{225}}{4} \\ t=\frac{9\pm15}{4} \end{gathered}$

We have two possible answers:

$\begin{gathered} t=\frac{9+15}{4}=6 \\ t=\frac{9-15}{4}=-\frac{3}{2} \end{gathered}$

We only accept the positive answer because the time cannot be negative.

Now calculate the position for t = 6:

$undefined$
