What is the minimum value for h(x)=x2−16x+60?

1 answer:

7 0

Minimum value is equal to x=8, y=-4First find the derivative of the original equation which equals= d/dx(x^2-16x+60) = 2x - 16at x=8, f'(x), the derivative of x equals zero, so therefore, at point x = 8, we have a minimum value.Just plug in 8 to the original equation to find the answer for the minimum value.

The ratio of an object's weight on Earth to its weight on Mars is 5 to 2. How much would a man, who weighs 145 pounds on Earth,

butalik [34]

To answer this youd have to set up a proportion. 5/2 is the ratio of weight on earth and mars respectively. The other side has to have the same ratio where 125lbs is the weight on earth and x is the weight on mars. The equation would look like 5/2=125/x. Youd have to cross multiply, and would get (125)(2)=5x. Solve for x to find the weight on mars

Find the answer to each trigonometric function below.

Airida [17]

Answer:

Sin A = $\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse} =\frac{32}{40} =\frac{4(8)}{5(8)} =\frac{4}{5}$
Cos C = $\frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse} =\frac{16}{34}=\frac{2(8)}{2(17)} =\frac{8}{17}$
Tan A = $\frac{opposite}{adjacent} =\frac{21}{20}$
