A) part of it is decreasing, part of it is increasing.
Going left-to-right, the downhill/negative slope is the decreasing portion (x<-1) and the uphill/positive slope is the increasing portion (x>-1).
B) The x-intercepts are the points where the graph intersects the x-axis: (2,0) and (-4,0).
C: The y-intercept is the point where the graph intersects the y-axis: (0,-2).
D: There is no absolute maximum. The graph keeps going up forever.
E: The absolute minimum <u>point</u> is at that bottom, at (-1, -3). The absolute minimum <u>value</u> is -3, since that's the lowest y-value used.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Amount of brine = 100 gal
amount of salt = 80 lb
rate of water running = 4 gal / min
Let A be the amount of salt in lb in the tank at any time t.
(a) dA/dt = rate of salt in - rate of salt out
Rate of salt in = 0
rate of salt out = A x 4 / 100 = A / 25 lb/min
So, dA/dt = 0 - A/25 = - A/25 lb/min



When t = 0, A = 80 lb
So,

(b) Now, A = 40 lb
So,


take log on both the sides

t = 17.3 minutes
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Property of regular polygons:</u>
- Sum of Interior Angles = (n−2) × 180°, where n is number of sides
<u>In our case we have:</u>
- 158.8×n = (n - 2)×180
- 180n - 158.8n = 360
- 21.2n = 360
- n = 360/21.2
- n = 17
Divide -10 in 15 = -0.666666666
Answer:
(a) 3 - 2x - 2x² (b) -21
Step-by-step explanation:
given, y +2x² = 3 -2x
make y the subject:
y = 3 - 2x - 2x²
if y = f(x)
then
f(x) = 3 - 2x - 2x²
(b)<u> to find f(3) we need to replace x with 3:</u>
<u />
3 - 2(3) - 2*(3)²
-21
