Answer:

x= 2

Step-by-step explanation:

5 -2(x +5)= 3x -15

Expand:

5 -2x -2(5)= 3x -15

5 -2x -10= 3x -15

Simplify:

-2x -5= 3x -15

Bring x terms to 1 side, constant to the other:

3x +2x= 15 -5

5x= 10

Divide both sides by 5:

x= 10 ÷5

x= 2

What are the coordinates of the turning point for the function f(x) = (x - 1)3 - 3? A. (-1, -3)

Naddik [55]

ANSWER

The turning point is

$(1,-3).$

EXPLANATION

The function given to us is

$f(x) = (x - 1) ^{3} - 3$

At turning point,
$f '(x) = 0$

So we need to differentiate the given function and equate it to zero.

We using the chain rule of differentiation, we obtain,
$f '(x) =3 (x - 1) ^{2}$

We equate this to zero to obtain,

$3 (x - 1) ^{2} = 0$

We divide through by 3.

$(x - 1) ^{2} = 0$

We solve for x to get,

$x - 1 = 0$

$x = 1$

We substitute this x-value in to the function to obtain the corresponding y-value of the turning point.

$f(1) = (1- 1) ^{3} - 3$

$f(1) = 0 - 3$

$f(1) = - 3$

Therefore the turning point is

$(1,-3)$

C is the correct answer.
