B. The statement is true because if the degree of the numerator of a rational function equals the degree of the denominator, then the rational function has a horizontal asymptote that is equal to the ratio of the leading coefficients.

Barrett works at an ice cream shop. The function f(x) represents the amount of money Barrett earns per gallon of ice cream, wher

Sliva [168]

The value of $f(g(x))$ is $6x^{3} +4$

Explanation:

The function $f(x)$ is given by

$f(x)=2x^{2} +4$

The function $g(x)$ is given by

$g(x)=\sqrt{3x^{3} }$

To determine the value of $f(g(x))$ , let us first substitute the value of $g(x)$ .

Thus, we get,

$f(g(x))=f(\sqrt{3x^{3} } )$

Now, substituting for $x=\sqrt{3x^{3} }$ in the function $f(x)$ , we get,

$f(g(x))=2(\sqrt{3x^{3} } )^2+4$

Simplifying, the expression, we get,

$f(g(x))=2({3x^{3} } )+4$

Multiplying the term within the bracket, we have,

$f(g(x))=6x^{3} +4$

Thus, the value of $f(g(x))$ is $6x^{3} +4$

Hence, the value of $f(g(x))$ represents the total amount of money that Barrett earns for working x hours.

Find the value of x at which the function has a possible relative maximum or minimum point. (Recall that e Superscript x is pos

shutvik [7]

Answer:

x= -11/4 is a maximum.

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember that a function has its critical points where the derivative equal zero. Therefore we need to compute the derivative of this function and find the points where the derivative is zero. Using the chain rule and the product rule we get that

$f'(x)= -e^{-4x}(11+4x)$

And then we get that if $11+4x = 0$ then $x = -11/4$ . So it has a critical point at $x = -11/4$ .

Now, if the second derivative evaluated at that point is less than 0 then the point is a maximum and if is greater than zero the point is a minimum.

Since

$f''(x) = 8e^{-4x} (5+2x)\\f''(-11/4) = -239496.56$

x= -11/4 is a maximum.
