Answer:

The interval over which the graph is decreasing is;

(-∞, -3)

Explanation:

The given function is f(x) = 2·(x + 3)² + 2

By expanding the function, we have;

2·x² + 12·x + 20

From the characteristics of a quadratic equation, we have;

The shape of a quadratic equation = A parabola

The coefficient of x² = +2 (positive), therefore the parabola opens up

The parabola has a minimum point

Points to the left of the minimum point are decreasing

The minimum point is obtained as the x-coordinate value when f'(x) = 0

∴ f'(x) = d(2·x² + 12·x + 20)/dx = 4·x + 12

At the minimum point,  f'(x) = 4·x + 12 = 0

∴ x = -12/4 = -3

Therefore;

The graph is decreasing over the interval from -infinity (-∞) to -3 which is (-∞, -3)

Please find attached the graph of the function created with Microsoft Excel

The graph is decreasing over the interval (-∞, -3).

Management is as old as human civilization. justify this statement​
AnnyKZ [126]

Answer:

Indeed, management is as old as the human species, as human nature is itself dependent on the natural resources that it needs for its subsistence, therefore needing to exercise a correct administration of said resources in such a way as to guarantee that those resources can satisfy the greatest number of individuals. That is, the human, through the correct management of resources, seeks to avoid the scarcity of them.
