Answer:
Place the compass at one end of line segment.
Adjust the compass to slightly longer than half the line segment length.
Draw arcs above and below the line.
Keeping the same compass width, draw arcs from other end of line.
Place ruler where the arcs cross, and draw the line segment.
The equation that matches the given situation is
. So, after two moves, Eric's elevation changed
meters above.
We know that in mathematics, subtraction means removing something from a group or a number of things. What is left in the group gets smaller when we subtract. The minuend is the first element we use. The subtrahend is the part that is being removed. The difference is the portion that remains after subtraction.
Assume that "negative" means climbing down and "positive" means climbing up. We must locate the elevation change in this area.
Given that Eric climbed straight down
meters. So we can write
.
Again Eric climbed straight up
meters. So, we can write
.
Then the change = 
=
=
=
=
=
=
=
Therefore, the equation that matches the given situation is
. So, after two moves, Eric's elevation changed
meters above.

Answer:
- h(x) = -2x^2 -x +3
- Reservoir A releases the same amount of water as Reservoir B over 1 week
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Given</u>:
f(x) = x^2 -7x +5
g(x) = 3x^2 -6x +2
h(x) = f(x) -g(x)
<u>Find</u>:
h(x)
h(1)
<u>Solution</u>:
The expression for h(x) is found by evaluating its definition:
h(x) = (x^2 -7x +5) -(3x^2 -6x +2)
h(x) = x^2(1 -3) +x(-7 -(-6)) +(5 -2)
h(x) = -2x^2 -x +3
Then h(1) is found by substituting 1 for x:
h(1) = -2(1^2) -(1) +3 = -2 -1 +3
h(1) = 0 . . . . difference in release amounts after 1 week is 0
The true statements are ...
- h(x) = -2x^2 -x +3
- Reservoir A releases the same amount of water as Reservoir B over 1 week



are the critical points, and judging by the picture alone, you must have

and

. (You might want to verify with the derivative test in case that's expected.)
Then the shaded region has area

I'll leave the details to you.
Now, for part (iv), you're asked to find the minimum of

, which entails first finding the second derivative:


setting equal to 0 and finding the critical point:

This is to say the minimum value of

*occurs when

*, but this is not necessarily the same as saying that

is the actual minimum value.
The minimum value of

is obtained by evaluating the derivative at this critical point:
