Let's say the numbers are "a" and "b"
thus
set the derivative to 0, and check the critical points, there's only one anyway
and do a first-derivative test, to see if it's a maximum
<h3>
Answer: D) 0</h3>
Work Shown:
f(x) = 4x^(-2) + (1/4)x^2 + 4
f ' (x) = 4*(-2)x^(-3) + (1/4)*2x .... power rule
f ' (x) = -8x^(-3) + (1/2)x
f ' (2) = -8(2)^(-3) + (1/2)*(2)
f ' (2) = 0
Are you ok? do you want to talk about it babe?
You could solve this using a proportion or just by common sense.
Proportion: 8/12 = x/126
Cross multiply: 12x = 1008
1008/12 = 84
Or the common sense route is just dividing 12 by 8 then multiplying the answer by 126. Either way, you get the same answer. Hope this helps! :)

Answer:
The correct answer is the last option.
Step-by-step explanation:
When you have a fraction with complex numbers, the first step to simplify is to multiply up and down the conjugate of the denominator, this will eliminate the complex part of the denominator, and in this way you can separate the expression in its real and complex part.
For the expression:
The denominator conjugate is 4 + 2i
When multiplied, the denominator is:
