Answer:
.
Step-by-step explanation:
Differentiate each function to find an expression for its gradient (slope of the tangent line) with respect to
. Make use of the power rule to find the following:
.
.
The question states that the graphs of
and
touch at
, such that
. Therefore:
.
On the other hand, since the graph of
and
coincide at
,
(otherwise, the two graphs would not even touch at that point.) Therefore:
.
Solve this system of two equations for
and
:
.
Therefore,
whereas
.
Substitute these two values back into the expression for
and
:
.
.
Evaluate either expression at
to find the
-coordinate of the intersection. For example,
. Similarly,
.
Therefore, the intersection of these two graphs would be at
.
Answer:
4 liters of 60% solution; 2 liters of 30% solution
Step-by-step explanation:
I like to use a simple, but effective, tool for most mixture problems. It is a kind of "X" diagram as in the attachment.
The ratios of solution concentrations are 3:6:5, so I've used those numbers in the diagram. The constituent solutions are on the left; the desired mixture is in the middle, and the numbers on the other legs of the X are the differences along the diagonals: 6 - 5 = 1; 5 - 3 = 2. This tells you the ratio of 60% solution to 30% solution is 2 : 1.
These ratio units (2, 1) add to 3. We want 6 liters of mixture, so we need to multiply these ratio units by 2 liters to get the amounts of constituents needed. The result is 4 liters of 60% solution and 2 liters of 30% solution.

If you're writing equations, it often works well to let the variable represent the quantity of the greatest contributor—the 60% solution. Let the volume of that (in liters) be represented by v. Then the total volume of iodine in the mixture is ...
... 0.60·v + 0.30·(6 -v) = 0.50·6
... 0.30v = 0.20·6 . . . . subtract 0.30·6, collect terms
... v = 6·(0.20/0.30) = 4 . . . . divide by the coefficient of v
4 liters of 60% solution are needed. The other 2 liters are 30% solution.
B would be the closest answer
Answer:
C. f has a relative maximum at x = 1.
Step-by-step explanation:
A. False. f(x) is concave down when f"(x) is negative. f"(x) is the tangent slope of the graph, f'(x). So f(x) is concave down between x = -1.5 and x = 1.5.
B. False. f(x) is decreasing when f'(x) is negative. So f(x) is decreasing in the intervals x < -3 and 1 < x < 2.
C. True. f(x) has a relative maximum where f'(x) = 0 and changes from + to -.
The answer is x=20. Hope this helps.
