Answer:

A. The cost is $45 per person.

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide $90 by 2 persons. It gives you $45 and so you could multiply $45 by x number of persons to see the total cost.

Find the 2nd Derivative:<br> f(x) = 3x⁴ + 2x² - 8x + 4

ad-work [718]

Answer:

$f''(x)=36x^2+4$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's start by finding the first derivative of $f(x)= 3x^4+2x^2-8x+4$ . We can do so by using the power rule for derivatives.

The power rule states that:

$\frac{d}{dx} (x^n) = n \times x^n^-^1$

This means that if you are taking the derivative of a function with powers, you can bring the power down and multiply it with the coefficient, then reduce the power by 1.

Another rule that we need to note is that the derivative of a constant is 0.

Let's apply the power rule to the function f(x).

$\frac{d}{dx} (3x^4+2x^2-8x+4)$

Bring the exponent down and multiply it with the coefficient. Then, reduce the power by 1.

$\frac{d}{dx} (3x^4+2x^2-8x+4) = ((4)3x^4^-^1+(2)2x^2^-^1-(1)8x^1^-^1+(0)4)$

Simplify the equation.

$\frac{d}{dx} (3x^4+2x^2-8x+4) = (12x^3+4x^1-8x^0+0)$
$\frac{d}{dx} (3x^4+2x^2-8x+4) = (12x^3+4x-8(1)+0)$

$\frac{d}{dx} (3x^4+2x^2-8x+4) = (12x^3+4x-8)$
$f'(x)=12x^3+4x-8$

Now, this is only the first derivative of the function f(x). Let's find the second derivative by applying the power rule once again, but this time to the first derivative, f'(x).

$\frac{d}{d} (f'x) = \frac{d}{dx} (12x^3+4x-8)$

$\frac{d}{dx} (12x^3+4x-8) = ((3)12x^3^-^1 + (1)4x^1^-^1 - (0)8)$

Simplify the equation.

$\frac{d}{dx} (12x^3+4x-8) = (36x^2 + 4x^0 - 0)$
$\frac{d}{dx} (12x^3+4x-8) = (36x^2 + 4(1) - 0)$
$\frac{d}{dx} (12x^3+4x-8) = (36x^2 + 4 )$

Therefore, this is the 2nd derivative of the function f(x).

We can say that: $f''(x)=36x^2+4$

Which of the following best completes the proof showing that ΔWXZ ~ ΔXYZ?

skelet666 [1.2K]

Angles formed by the segment $\overline{XZ}$ in the triangles ΔWXZ, and ΔXYZ, are equal and the given corresponding sides are proportional.

The option that best completes the proof showing that ΔWXZ ~ ΔXYZ is; <u>16 over 12 equals 12 over 9</u>

Reasons:

The proof showing that ΔWXZ ~ ΔXYZ is presented as follows;

Segment $\overline{XZ}$ is perpendicular to segment $\overline{WY}$

∠WZX and ∠XZY are right angles by definition of $\overline{XZ}$ perpendicular to $\overline{WY}$

∠WZX in ΔWXZ = ∠XZY in ΔXYZ = 90° (definition)

$\displaystyle \frac{WZ}{XZ} = \frac{16}{12} = \mathbf{ \frac{4}{3}}$

$\displaystyle \mathbf{ \frac{XZ}{ZY}} = \frac{12}{9} = \frac{4}{3}$

Therefore;

$\displaystyle \frac{16}{12} = \frac{12}{9}$ , which gives, $\displaystyle \mathbf{\frac{WZ}{XZ} }= \frac{XZ}{ZY}$

Given that two sides of ΔWXZ are proportional to two sides of ΔXYZ, and

that the included angles between the two sides, ∠WZX and ∠XZY are

congruent, the two triangles, ΔWXZ and ΔXYZ are similar by Side-Angle-

Side, SAS, similarity postulate.

The option that best completes the proof is therefore;

$\displaystyle \frac{16}{12} = \frac{12}{9}$ which is; <u>16 over 12 equals 12 over 9</u>
