Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Part A: 20 shows $20 which Cory earns by mowing one lawn. 9 shows $9 which he earns by trimming one hedge. x shows the number of lawns. y shows the number of hedges. Part B: There are two terms in this expression. 20x which shows the total earning of Cory by mowing lawns. 9y which shows his earning by trimming hedges. It can be judged by the description of rates explained in part A. Part C: From explanation given in Part C, we can easily see that the expression 9y is used for the total earned from trimming hedges.
Set each expression from the parentheses equal to 0 separately like so:
Equation 1: x - 4 = 0
Equation 2: -5x + 1 = 0
Now for each equation solve for x!
Equation 1:
x +(- 4 + 4) = 0 + 4
x = 4
Equation 2:
-5x +( 1-1) = 0 - 1
-5x/ -5 = -1 / -5
x = 1/5
Check:
(4 - 4)(-5*4 + 1)
(0) (-20 + 1)
(0) (-19)
0 = 0 -------------------------> correct!
(1/5 - 4)(-5 * 1/5 + 1)
(-19/5)(-1 + 1)
(-19/5)(0)
0 = 0 -------------------------> correct!
smaller x = 1/5
larger x = 4
Hope this helped!
First of all, we compute the points of interest, i.e. the points where the curve cuts the x axis: since the expression is already factored, we have

Which means that the roots are

Next, we can expand the function definition:

In this form, it is much easier to compute the derivative:

If we evaluate the derivative in the points of interest, we have

This means that we are looking for the equations of three lines, of which we know a point and the slope. The equation

is what we need. The three lines are:
This is the tangent at x = -2
This is the tangent at x = 0
This is the tangent at x = 1
