Critical points is where the derivative (slope) is zero or does not exist. So to do this we have to find the derivative of our function:

So we apply chain rule:
=

Set our first derivative to zero and solve for x:
3(x^2 - 1) * 2x = 0
So we can see that (by plugging in) 0, -1 and 1 makes our solution true
So our critical value is x = 0, x = -1, x = 1

Addition property of equality.
Hope this helps :)
P of 1st white marble = 4/ 12
and P of 2nd white in a row = 3 /11
total = ( 4/12) * ( 3/11)
= 1/11
hope it helped

Explanation:

Note we subtract 3 off the previous term (t1) to get the next term (t2). Each new successive term is found this way

and so on. This process may take a while to reach 
There's a shortcut. The nth term of any arithmetic sequence is

We plug in
and simplify

Then we can plug in various positive whole numbers for n to find the corresponding
value. For example, plug in n = 2

which matches with the second term we found earlier. And,

---------------------
The notation
refers to the sum of the first ten terms 
We could use either the long way or the shortcut above to find all
through
. Then add those values up. Or we can take this shortcut below.

The sum of the first ten terms is -85
-----------------------
As a check for
, here are the first ten terms:
- t1 = 5
- t2 = 2
- t3 = -1
- t4 = -4
- t5 = -7
- t6 = -10
- t7 = -13
- t8 = -16
- t9 = -19
- t10 = -22
Then adding said terms gets us...
5 + 2 + (-1) + (-4) + (-7) + (-10) + (-13) + (-16) + (-19) + (-22) = -85
This confirms that
is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:
Perhaps you want a graph of ...
x^2/49 +(y +1)^2/4 = 1
This is an ellipse centered at (x, y) = (0, -1) with a major axis in the x-direction of 14, and a minor axis in the y-direction of 4.
