If f is the function defined by f(x) = 3x^5 - 5x^4, what are all the x coordinates of points of inflection for the graph of f?

Mathematics

gregori [183]3 years ago

Answer:

D: 0 and 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Function is defined by;

f(x) = 3x^(5) - 5x⁴

Now, an inflection point will be a point on the graph where the inflection or concavity changes.

Thus, let's find the derivatives until we get there;

f'(x) = 15x⁴ - 20x³

f''(x) = 60x³ - 60x²

So factorizing gives;

f''(x) = 60x²(x - 1)

At f''(x) = 0, we have; x = 0 or x = 1

Thus, the x coordinates of points of inflection are 0 & 1

At what rate did you invest your $1000, if it made you $120 in interest over the course of 3 years? (Write your answer as a perc
Anon25 [30]

Answer:

The rate at which the $1000 is invested is 4%.

Since the answer is required to be written without the percent sign, it therefore implies that he rate at which the $1000 is invested is 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

Amount invested = $1000

Total interest income over the course of 3 years = $120

Number of years = 3

Annual interest income = Total interest income over the course of 3 years / Number of years = $120 / 3 = $40

The interest ate on the $1000 invested can now be calculated as follows:

Interest rate = (Annual interest income / Amount invested) * 100 = ($40 / $1000) * 100 = 0.04 * 100 = 4%

Therefore, the rate at which the $1000 is invested is 4%.

Since the answer is required to be written without the percent sign, it therefore implies that he rate at which the $1000 is invested is 4.

Use a transformation to linearize this equation and then employ linear regression to determine parameters a and
uysha [10]
Given the equation

y=\left( \frac{a+\sqrt{x}}{b\sqrt{x}} \right)^2

which models the data tabulated below:

\begin{tabular}
{|c|c|}
x&y\\[1ex]
0.5&10.4\\
1&5.8\\
2&3.3\\
3&2.4\\
4&2
\end{tabular}

The linear regression equation is given by

y=a+bx

where: b= \frac{\Sigma xy-n\bar{x}\bar{y}}{\Sigma x^2-n\bar{x}^2} and a=\bar{y}-b\bar{x}

We extend the given table as follows:

\begin{tabular} {|c|c|c|c|} x&y&x^2&xy\\[1ex] 0.5&10.4&0.25&5.2\\ 1&5.8&1&5.8\\ 2&3.3&4&6.6\\ 3&2.4&9&7.2\\ 4&2&16&8\\[1ex] \Sigma x=10.5&\Sigma y=23.9&\Sigma x^2=30.25&\Sigma xy=32.8 \end{tabular} \\ \\ \\ \bar{x}= \frac{\Sigma x}{n} = \frac{10.5}{5} =2.1 \\ \\ \bar{y}=\frac{\Sigma y}{n} = \frac{23.9}{5} =4.78

Thus,

b= \frac{32.8-5(2.1)(4.78)}{30.25-5(2.1)^2} \\ \\ = \frac{32.8-50.19}{30.25-22.05} = \frac{-17.39}{8.2} \\ \\ =-2.12

and

a=4.78-(-2.12)(2.1)=4.78+4.454=9.234

Therefore, the linearlized form of the equation is y = 9.234 - 2.12x



Part B:

At x = 1.6,

y=9.234-2.12(1.6)=9.234-3.392=5.842

Q11) kelly puts $350 in a savings account. the savings account accrues interest at a flat rate of 1.05% a month. how much will t
Leviafan [203]

The account be worth in 7 months is 375.725 .

<h3>What is the amount in simple interest?</h3>

Amount (A) is the total money paid back at the end of the time period for which it was borrowed. The total amount formula in case of simple interest can also be written as: A = P(1 + RT)

Here, A = Total amount after the given time period.

Given that,

P = $350, R = 1.05%, T = 7 month

The simple interest equation uses "t" as years, but is just cycles, using an APR rate.

now, if we never mind "t" as years and just use it as an interest cycle, then we can say the rate is 1.05% and the period is 7 cycles.

A = P(1 + RT)

   = 350(1+1.05%×7)

   = 350(1+0.0105×7)

   = 350(1+0.0735)

   = 350×1.0735

A  = $375.725

Hence, The account be worth in 7 months is 375.725 .
