We'll need to find the 1st and 2nd derivatives of F(x) to answer that question.

F '(x) = -4x^3 - 27x^2 - 48x - 16     You must set this = to 0 and solve for the 
                                                           roots (which we call "critical values).

F "(x) = -12x^2 - 54x - 48

Now suppose you've found the 3 critical values.  We use the 2nd derivative to determine which of these is associated with a max or min of the function F(x).

Just supposing that 4 were a critical value, we ask whether or not we have a max or min of F(x) there:   

F "(x) = -12x^2 - 54x - 48    becomes    F "(4) = -12(4)^2 - 54(4)
                                                                        =  -192 - 216
                                       Because F "(4) is negative, the graph of the given
                                        function opens down at x=4, and so we have a 
                                        relative max there.  (Remember that "4" is only
                                       an example, and that you must find all three
                                        critical values and then test each one in F "(x).

How many ways can eight letters be arranged into groups of five where order matters and the first two letters are already chosen
fenix001 [56]

Answer:

120

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we're dealing with a problem where the order matters and the first two letters are already chosen we need to subtract the number of letters and the number of available slots per group.

We use the permutation formula to find the answer, but before that let's check values.

n = 8

k = 5

Now since there are two letters already chosen we have to deduct two from both the value of n and k.

n = 6

k = 3

Now we can use the permutation formula:

_{n}P_{k}=\dfrac{n!}{(n-k)!}

_{6}P_{3}=\dfrac{6!}{6-3)!}

_{6}P_{3}=\dfrac{6!}{3!}

_{6}P_{3}=\dfrac{6*5*4*3*2*1}{3*2*1}

The 3*2*1 cancels out and leaves us with:

_{6}P_{3}=6*5*4

_{6}P_{3}=120

So there are 120 possible ways to arrange eight letters into groups of five where order matters and the first two letters are already chosen.
