Vinny is interviewing for a job. he wants his take-home pay to be at least $42,000$42,000. what is the least salary he can earn

Elena-2011 [213]

56,000 would be the answer. If you divide the 42,000 by 3 then add your quotient to the original number you get his salary before tax.

Write an equation of the line that passes through the given point and is parallel to the given line.

9966 [12]

Answer : <em>Equation of line is</em> y=Equation of line is y= $\frac{2}{3}$ x+ $\frac{-5}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Theory :

Equation of line is given as y = mx + c.

Where, m is slope and c is y intercepted.

Slope of given line : y = $\frac{2}{3}$ x+1 is m= $\frac{2}{3}$

We know that line : y = $\frac{2}{3}$ x+1 is parallel to equation of target line.

therefore, slope of target line will be $\frac{2}{3}$ .

we write equation of target line as y= $\frac{2}{3}$ x+c

Now, It is given that target line passes through point ( -5,-2)

hence, point ( -5,-2) satisfy the target line's equation.

we get,

y= $\frac{2}{3}$ x+c

-2= $\frac{2}{3}$ $\times$ -5+ c

-5= $\frac{-10}{3}$ +c

c= $\frac{-5}{3}$

thus, Equation of line is y=Equation of line is y= $\frac{2}{3}$ x+ $\frac{-5}{3}$

Consider the following. f(x) = x5 − x3 + 6, −1 ≤ x ≤ 1 (a) Use a graph to find the absolute maximum and minimum values of the fu

kykrilka [37]

ANSWER

See below

EXPLANATION

Part a)

The given function is

$f(x) = {x}^{5} - {x}^{3} + 6$

From the graph, we can observe that, the absolute maximum occurs at (-0.7746,6.1859) and the absolute minimum occurs at (0.7746,5.8141).

b) Using calculus, we find the first derivative of the given function.

$f'(x) = 5 {x}^{4} - 3 {x}^{2}$

At turning point f'(x)=0.

$5 {x}^{4} - 3 {x}^{2} = 0$

This implies that,

${x}^{2} (5 {x}^{2} - 3) = 0$

${x}^{2} = 0 \: or \: 5 {x}^{2} - 3 = 0$

$x = - \frac{ \sqrt{15} }{5} \: or \: x = 0 \: \: or \: x =\frac{ \sqrt{15} }{5}$

We plug this values into the original function to obtain the y-values of the turning points

$( - \frac{ \sqrt{15} }{5} , \frac{1}{125} ( 6 \sqrt{15} +750)) \:and \: (0, - 6) \: and\: ( \frac{ \sqrt{15} }{5} , \frac{1}{125} ( - 6 \sqrt{15} +750))$

We now use the second derivative test to determine the absolute maximum minimum on the interval [-1,1]

$f''(x) = 20 {x}^{3} - 6x$

$f''( - \frac{ \sqrt{15} }{5} ) \: < \: 0$

Hence

$( - \frac{ \sqrt{15} }{5} , \frac{1}{125} ( 6 \sqrt{15} + 750))$

is a maximum point.

$f''( \frac{ \sqrt{15} }{5} ) \: > \: 0$

Hence

$( \frac{ \sqrt{15} }{5} , \frac{1}{125} (- 6 \sqrt{15} + 750))$

is a minimum point.

$f''(0) \: =\: 0$

Hence (0,-6) is a point of inflexion
