Answer:

x=2 => 5×2 - 4×2² + 3 = 10-16+3 = -3

x=-1 => 5×-1 - 4×(-1)² + 3 = -5 - 4 + 3 = -6

Step-by-step explanation:

is in the answer.

remember that squaring a negative number creates a positive result.

Answer:

Let the polynomial be f(x) = 5x – 4x^2 + 3

Now, for x = 2,

f(2) = 5(2) – 4(2)^2 + 3

=> f(2) = 10 – 16 + 3 = –3

Or, the value of the polynomial 5x – 4x^2 + 3 at x = 2 is -3.

Similarly, for x = –1,

f(–1) = 5(–1) – 4(–1^)2 + 3

=> f(–1) = –5 –4 + 3 = -6

The value of the polynomial 5x – 4x2 + 3 at x = -1 is -6.

The angle of elevation of a cliff top from a small boat on the sea is 36º. The boat is 100m from the foot of the vertical cliff.

Answer:

72.65m (2dp) is the height of the cliff

Step-by-step explanation:

The height of the cliff can be calculated using trigonometry

Since we know the angle of elevation and the adjacent = side of the angle, and we are looking for the opposite side of the angle, which say is h, we will use tan since we are not dealing with the hypotenuse

tan(36) = h/100

100tan(36) = h

h = 72.65m (2dp)

F(x) = lnx/x

My name is Ann [436]

$f(x) = \frac{lnx}{x}$

(a) $f'(x) = \frac{d}{dx}[\frac{lnx}{x}]$
Using the quotient rule:
$f'(x) = \frac{\frac{1}{x} \cdot x - lnx}{x^{2}}$
$f'(x) = \frac{1 - lnx}{x^{2}}$

For maximum, f'(x) = 0;
$\frac{1 - lnx}{x} = 0$
$lnx = 1, x = e$

(b) <em>Deduce:
</em> $e^{x} \geq x^{e}, x > 0$
<em>
Soln:</em> Since x = e is the greatest value, then f(e) ≥ f(x) > f(0)
$\frac{ln(e)}{e} \geq \frac{lnx}{x}$
$\frac{1}{e} \geq \frac{lnx}{x}$ , since ln(e) is simply equal to 1

Now, since x > 0, then we don't have to worry about flipping the signs when multiplying by x.
$\frac{x}{e} \geq lnx$
$x \geq elnx$
$x \geq ln(x^{e})$

Taking the exponential to both sides will cancel with the natural logarithmic function in the right hand side to produce:
$e^{x} \geq e^{ln(x^{e}})$
$e^{x} \geq x^{e}$ , as required.

15 points to whoever can answer this question!!!!

Amanda [17]

I just answered this question(s). mean is average. So you just add all the numbers up per country and divide by how many numbers there are. I hope you know how to graph otherwise look it up on kan academy and the country with the lowest number for height is the gold medalist. And the top three fastest go as gold, silver and bronze<<<<in this specific order.
