M(x) = 4x^3 - 5x^2 - 7x
Let us first find the zeros of the function.
That is when it is equal to zero.
m(x) = 4x^3 - 5x^2 - 7x = 0
x(4x^2 - 5x - 7) = 0. Therefore x = 0 or 4x^2 - 5x - 7 = 0.
Using a quadratic function calculator to solve 4x^2 - 5x - 7
x = 2.09, -0.84
Therefore the zeros are x =-0.84, 0, 2.09 for the function m(x).
The intervals observed are imagining that the zeros are on the number line:
x<-0.84, -0.84<x<0, 0<x<2.09, x>2.09.
For each of this range we would test the function with a number that falls in the range.
The function is decreasing in the interval where it is less than 0.
For x<-0.84, let us test x = -1, m(x) = 4x^3 - 5x^2 - 7x = 4(-1)^3 - 5(-1)^2 - 7(-1) = -4 -5 +7 = -2, -2 < 0, so it is decreasing here.
For -0.84<x<0, let us test x = -0.5, m(x) = 4x^3 - 5x^2 - 7x = 4(-0.5)^3 - 5(-0.5)^2 - 7(-0.5) = -0.5 -1.25 +3.5 = 1.75, 1.75 >0. It is not decreasing.
For 0<x<2.09, let us test x = 1, m(x) = 4x^3 - 5x^2 - 7x =
4(1)^3 - 5(1)^2 - 7(1) = 4 -5 -7 = -8, -8 <0. It is decreasing.
For x>2.09, let us test x = 3, m(x) = 4x^3 - 5x^2 - 7x =
4(3)^3 - 5(3)^2 - 7(3) = 108 -45 -21 = 42, 42 >0. It is not decreasing.
So the function is decreasing in the intervals:
x < -0.84, & 0<x<2.09.
Answer:
20 more pizzas were sold
Step-by-step explanation:
60-40=20
Answer:
see below
Step-by-step explanation:
domain is all x values for which a graph has
and range is all y values for which a graph has
domain in this case is -4<x<4. The range is -3<= x <= 3
Function is increasing when slope of the line is positive, function is decreasing when slope of the line is negative.
When 2 lines meet and there is an edge like at (-1,3) there is no increase of decrease of the function. If you are in calculus, this is because the derivative of the function will not be valid at those points. If you are not in calculus, then don't pay attention to the derivative stuff.
Function is increasing on interval -4<x<-1 and 2<x<4
Function is decreasing on interval -1<x<2
Answer:
$300
Step-by-step explanation:
y = 100x + 300
where X represents the amount of months.
A dialation produces a shape that is the same shape but different size. so we draw a new triangle about point B where A'B=2AB
so B and B' are the same and
AB and BC will be parts of the sides. and A' is located on the ray
