Answer:

(A) -3 ≤ x ≤ 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The given function is presented as follows;

h(x) = x² - 1

From the given function, the coefficient of the quadratic term is positive, and therefore, the function is U shaped and has a minimum value, with the slope on the interval to the left of <em>h</em> having a negative rate of change;

The minimum value of h(x) is found as follows;

At the minimum of h(x), h'(x) = d(h(x)/dx = d(x² - 1)/dx = 2·x = 0

∴ x = 0/2 = 0 at the minimum

Therefore, the function is symmetrical about the point where x = 0

The average rate of change over an interval is given by the change in 'y' and x-values over the end-point in the interval, which is the slope of a straight line drawn between the points

The average rate of change will be negative where the y-value of the left boundary of the interval is higher than the y-value of the right boundary of the interval, such that the line formed by joining the endpoints of the interval slope downwards from left to right

The distance from the x-value of left boundary of the interval that would have a negative slope from x = 0 will be more than the distance of the x-value of the right boundary of the interval

Therefore, the interval over which <em>h</em> has a negative rate of change is -3 ≤ x ≤ 1

Determine the domain of the function (fog) (x) where f(x) = 3x-1/x-4 and g(x)=x+1/x
Mrac [35]

Answer:

(-\infty,0)\cup(0, \frac{1}{3})\cup (\frac{1}{3},\infty)

Step-by-step explanation:

The given functions are f(x)=\frac{3x-1}{x-4} and g(x)=\frac{x+1}{x} .

We now composed the two functions to find:

(f\circ g)(x)=f(g(x))

\implies (f\circ g)(x)=f(\frac{x+1}{x})

\implies (f\circ g)(x)=\frac{3(\frac{x+1}{x})+1}{\frac{x+1}{x}-4}

\implies (f\circ g)(x)=\frac{4x+3}{1-3x}

This function is defined if the denominator is not zero.

1-3x\ne0

x\ne\frac{1}{3}

We write this in interval notation as:

(-\infty,\frac{1}{3})\cup (\frac{1}{3},\infty)

We need to be cautious here as x=0 is not in the domain of g(x).

Therefore the domain of (f\circ g)(x) is

(-\infty,0)\cup(0, \frac{1}{3})\cup (\frac{1}{3},\infty)

I need help on this question I don’t understand
mixas84 [53]

Answer:

x = 25

Step-by-step explanation:

Since these 2 angles are vertical angles, then they are both equal. Set up an equation and then solve it.

75 = 4x - 25

75 + 25 = 4x

100 = 4x

100/4 = 4x/4

25 = x

Hope this helps. Brainly will be highly appreciated.

Find the equation of the line with Slope = -4 and passing through (-1,8). Write your equation in the form
Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

y= -4x+4

Step-by-step explanation:

y=mx+b

where x=-1, y=8, and m=-4

8=(-4)(-1)+b

8=4+b

4=b

Thus, y= -4x+4
