Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is incomplete, as the function is not given. So, I will make an assumption.

A quadratic function is represented as:

$f(x) = ax^2 + bx + c$

If $a > 0$ , then the function has a minimum x value

E.g. $f(x) = 4x^2 - 5x + 8$ ------ $4 > 0$

Else, then the function has a maximum x value

E.g. $f(x)= -4x^2 -5x + 8$ ---- $-4 < 0$

The maximum or minimum x value is calculated using:

$x = -\frac{b}{2a}$

For instance, the maximum of $f(x)= -4x^2 -5x + 8$ is:

$x = -\frac{-5}{2*-4}$

$x = -\frac{5}{8}$

So, the maximum of the function is:

$f(x)= -4x^2 -5x + 8$

$f(-\frac{5}{8}) = -4 * (-\frac{5}{8})^2 - 5 *(-\frac{5}{8}) +8$

$f(-\frac{5}{8}) = 9.5625$

Katyanochek1 [597]

Answer:

1/8

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 3 + 3 + 6 = 12 marbles in the bag and 12 * 12 = 144 ways to choose two marbles when replacing. There are 3 * 6 = 18 ways to choose a red marble and then a blue marble so the probability is 18 / 144 = 1 / 8.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$ 86,000 lies in the category $84201 - $ 160725

Tax = 14,382.50+ 24% of the amount over $84,200

Amount over $84,200= 86,000 - 84,200 = $1,800

Tax for the amount $ 1,800 =24% * 1800 = 0.24 * 1800

= $ 432

Tax for the amount $86,000 = 14382.50 + 432

=$ 14814.50

Evaluate the limit

wel

We are given with a limit and we need to find it's value so let's start !!!!

${\quad \qquad \blacktriangleright \blacktriangleright \displaystyle \sf \lim_{x\to 4}\dfrac{\sqrt{x}-\sqrt{3\sqrt{x}-2}}{x^{2}-16}}$

But , before starting , let's recall an identity which is the main key to answer this question

${\boxed{\bf{a^{2}-b^{2}=(a+b)(a-b)}}}$

Consider The limit ;

${:\implies \quad \displaystyle \sf \lim_{x\to 4}\dfrac{\sqrt{x}-\sqrt{3\sqrt{x}-2}}{x^{2}-16}}$

Now as directly putting the limit will lead to indeterminate form 0/0. So , Rationalizing the numerator i.e multiplying both numerator and denominator by the conjugate of numerator 

${:\implies \quad \displaystyle \sf \lim_{x\to 4}\dfrac{\sqrt{x}-\sqrt{3\sqrt{x}-2}}{x^{2}-16}\times \dfrac{\sqrt{x}+\sqrt{3\sqrt{x}-2}}{\sqrt{x}+\sqrt{3\sqrt{x}-2}}}$

${:\implies \quad \displaystyle \sf \lim_{x\to 4}\dfrac{(\sqrt{x}-\sqrt{3\sqrt{x}-2})(\sqrt{x}+\sqrt{3\sqrt{x}-2})}{(x^{2}-4^{2})(\sqrt{x}+\sqrt{3\sqrt{x}-2})}}$

Using the above algebraic identity ;

${:\implies \quad \displaystyle \sf \lim_{x\to 4}\dfrac{(\sqrt{x})^{2}-(\sqrt{3\sqrt{x}-2})^{2}}{(x-4)(x+4)(\sqrt{x}+\sqrt{3\sqrt{x}-2})}}$

${:\implies \quad \displaystyle \sf \lim_{x\to 4}\dfrac{x-(3\sqrt{x}-2)}{(x-4)(x+4)(\sqrt{x}+\sqrt{3\sqrt{x}-2})}}$

${:\implies \quad \displaystyle \sf \lim_{x\to 4}\dfrac{x-3\sqrt{x}+2}{\{(\sqrt{x})^{2}-2^{2}\}(x+4)(\sqrt{x}+\sqrt{3\sqrt{x}-2})}}$

${:\implies \quad \displaystyle \sf \lim_{x\to 4}\dfrac{x-3\sqrt{x}-2}{(\sqrt{x}-2)(\sqrt{x}+2)(x+4)(\sqrt{x}+\sqrt{3\sqrt{x}-2})}}$

Now , here we need to eliminate (√x-2) from the denominator somehow , or the limit will again be indeterminate ,so if you think carefully as I thought after seeing the question i.e what if we add 4 and subtract 4 in numerator ? So let's try !

${:\implies \quad \displaystyle \sf \lim_{x\to 4}\dfrac{x-3\sqrt{x}-2+4-4}{(\sqrt{x}-2)(\sqrt{x}+2)(x+4)(\sqrt{x}+\sqrt{3\sqrt{x}-2})}}$

${:\implies \quad \displaystyle \sf \lim_{x\to 4}\dfrac{(x-4)+2+4-3\sqrt{x}}{(\sqrt{x}-2)(\sqrt{x}+2)(x+4)(\sqrt{x}+\sqrt{3\sqrt{x}-2})}}$

Now , using the same above identity ;

${:\implies \quad \displaystyle \sf \lim_{x\to 4}\dfrac{(\sqrt{x}-2)(\sqrt{x}+2)+6-3\sqrt{x}}{(\sqrt{x}-2)(\sqrt{x}+2)(x+4)(\sqrt{x}+\sqrt{3\sqrt{x}-2})}}$

${:\implies \quad \displaystyle \sf \lim_{x\to 4}\dfrac{(\sqrt{x}-2)(\sqrt{x}+2)+3(2-\sqrt{x})}{(\sqrt{x}-2)(\sqrt{x}+2)(x+4)(\sqrt{x}+\sqrt{3\sqrt{x}-2})}}$

Now , take minus sign common in numerator from 2nd term , so that we can take (√x-2) common from both terms

${:\implies \quad \displaystyle \sf \lim_{x\to 4}\dfrac{(\sqrt{x}-2)(\sqrt{x}+2)-3(\sqrt{x}-2)}{(\sqrt{x}-2)(\sqrt{x}+2)(x+4)(\sqrt{x}+\sqrt{3\sqrt{x}-2})}}$

Now , take (√x-2) common in numerator ;

${:\implies \quad \displaystyle \sf \lim_{x\to 4}\dfrac{(\sqrt{x}-2)\{(\sqrt{x}+2)-3\}}{(\sqrt{x}-2)(\sqrt{x}+2)(x+4)(\sqrt{x}+\sqrt{3\sqrt{x}-2})}}$

Cancelling the radical that makes our limit again and again indeterminate ;

${:\implies \quad \displaystyle \sf \lim_{x\to 4}\dfrac{\cancel{(\sqrt{x}-2)}\{(\sqrt{x}+2)-3\}}{\cancel{(\sqrt{x}-2)}(\sqrt{x}+2)(x+4)(\sqrt{x}+\sqrt{3\sqrt{x}-2})}}$

${:\implies \quad \displaystyle \sf \lim_{x\to 4}\dfrac{(\sqrt{x}+2-3)}{(\sqrt{x}+2)(x+4)(\sqrt{x}+\sqrt{3\sqrt{x}-2})}}$

${:\implies \quad \displaystyle \sf \lim_{x\to 4}\dfrac{(\sqrt{x}-1)}{(\sqrt{x}+2)(x+4)(\sqrt{x}+\sqrt{3\sqrt{x}-2})}}$

Now , putting the limit ;

${:\implies \quad \sf \dfrac{\sqrt{4}-1}{(\sqrt{4}+2)(4+4)(\sqrt{4}+\sqrt{3\sqrt{4}-2})}}$

${:\implies \quad \sf \dfrac{2-1}{(2+2)(4+4)(2+\sqrt{3\times 2-2})}}$

${:\implies \quad \sf \dfrac{1}{(4)(8)(2+\sqrt{6-2})}}$

${:\implies \quad \sf \dfrac{1}{(4)(8)(2+\sqrt{4})}}$

${:\implies \quad \sf \dfrac{1}{(4)(8)(2+2)}}$

${:\implies \quad \sf \dfrac{1}{(4)(8)(4)}}$

${:\implies \quad \sf \dfrac{1}{128}}$

${:\implies \quad \bf \therefore \underline{\underline{\displaystyle \bf \lim_{x\to 4}\dfrac{\sqrt{x}-\sqrt{3\sqrt{x}-2}}{x^{2}-16}=\dfrac{1}{128}}}}$
