Answer:

We conclude that:

m∠y = 70.53°

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given right-angled triangle,

Hypotenuse is 15

The angle is ∠y

The adjacent to angle ∠y is 5

Using the trigonometric ratio,

cos y = adjacent / hypotenuse

substituting adjacent = 5, hypotenuse = 15

cos y = 5/15

cos y = 1/3

y = arc cos (1/3)

y = 70.53°

Therefore, we conclude that:

m∠y = 70.53°

Please help me on this

Readme [11.4K]

For this case we have to define root properties:

$\sqrt [n] {a ^ n} = a ^ {\frac {n} {n}} = a$

In addition, we know that:

$a ^ {- 1} = \frac {1} {a ^ 1} = \frac {1} {a}$

On the other hand:

$4 ^ 2 = 16$

Thus, we can rewrite the given expression as:

$\sqrt {4 ^ 2 * a ^ 8 * \frac {1} {b ^ 2}} =\\4 ^ {\frac {2} {2}} * a ^ {\frac {8} {2}} * \frac {1} {b ^ {\frac {2} {2}}} =\\4 * a ^ 4 * \frac {1} {b}$

Find the maximum value or minimum value for the function f(x) = 0.15(x + 1)² - 3.

il63 [147K]

Answer:

The minimum value for $f(x) = 0.15(x + 1)^2 - 3$ is $-3$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given function is $f(x) = 0.15(x + 1)^2 - 3$

We need to find the maximum value or the minimum value for the function.

Now, differentiate $f(x) = 0.15(x + 1)^2 - 3$ w.r.t $x$ .

$f'(x) =\frac{d}{dx}(0.15(x + 1)^2 - 3)\\f'(x)=\frac{d}{dx}(0.15(x+1)^2-\frac{d}{dx}(3)\\$

$f'(x)=2\times 0.15(x+1)\frac{d}{dx}(x+1)-0\\f'(x)=0.3(x+1)(1)\\f'(x)=0.3(x+1)$

Now, we will equate $f'(x)=0$ to find critical point.

$0.3(x+1)=0\\x=-1$

Plug this critical point in to the function $f(x) = 0.15(x + 1)^2 - 3$ we get,

$f(-1) = 0.15(-1 + 1)^2 - 3\\f(-1)=-3$

Also, $f''(x)=0.3$ which is positive, We have minimum value.

So, the minimum value for $f(x) = 0.15(x + 1)^2 - 3$ is $-3$ .
