Answer:

54 teachers

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

given data

The ratio of teachers to students on a field trip to New York City is 2 to 9.

That is the ratio is 2:9

We are told that there are 243 students

Required

We want to find the number of teachers

Step two:

Applying the part to part method we have

let the number of teachers be x

2/9= x/243

cross multiply we have

9x= 243*2

9x= 486

divide both sides by 9

x= 54

Hence there are 54 teachers

Find the x-coordinates of any relative extrema and inflection point(s) for the function f(x)= 6x^1/3 + 3x^4/3. You must justify
irina [24]

Answer:

x-coordinates of relative extrema = \frac{-1}{2}

x-coordinates of the inflexion points are 0, 1

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x)=6x^{\frac{1}{3}}+3x^{\frac{4}{3}}

Differentiate with respect to x

f'(x)=6\left ( \frac{1}{3} \right )x^{\frac{-2}{3}}+3\left ( \frac{4}{3} \right )x^{\frac{1}{3}}=\frac{2}{x^{\frac{2}{3}}}+4x^{\frac{1}{3}}

f'(x)=0\Rightarrow \frac{2}{x^{\frac{2}{3}}}+4x^{\frac{1}{3}}=0\Rightarrow x=\frac{-1}{2}

Differentiate f'(x) with respect to x

f''(x)=2\left ( \frac{-2}{3} \right )x^{\frac{-5}{3}}+\frac{4}{3}x^{\frac{-2}{3}}=\frac{-4x^{\frac{2}{3}}+4x^{\frac{5}{3}}}{3x^{\frac{2}{3}}x^{\frac{5}{3}}}\\f''(x)=0\Rightarrow \frac{-4x^{\frac{2}{3}}+4x^{\frac{5}{3}}}{3x^{\frac{2}{3}}x^{\frac{5}{3}}}=0\Rightarrow x=1

At x = \frac{-1}{2},

f''\left ( \frac{-1}{2} \right )=\frac{4\left ( -1+4\left ( \frac{-1}{2} \right ) \right )}{3\left ( \frac{-1}{2} \right )^{\frac{5}{3}}}>0

We know that if f''(a)>0 then x = a is a point of minima.

So, x=\frac{-1}{2} is a point of minima.

For inflexion points:

Inflexion points are the points at which f''(x) = 0 or f''(x) is not defined.

So, x-coordinates of the inflexion points are 0, 1

Indicate whether the study is an observational study or a controlled experiment. A group of boys is randomly divided into two gr
MariettaO [177]

Answer:

Controlled Experiment

Step-by-step explanation:

The controlled experiment involves the experiment in which all factors are considered as constants whereas one factor is not fixed and that one is independent variable whose effect is to be tested. In short,  in controlled experiment one group of data contains control group and one or more other groups are examined by considering all other factors constant except for one factor. The control group is the group that doesn't receive any treatment whereas treatment is applied to experimental group and then effect of treatment is measured through comparing both groups.  

Here group of boys is divided in to two groups

The group watched violent cartoon= Experimental group

The group watched  cartoons without violence= Control group

The researchers want to know whether the violent actions of boys are linked to violent cartoon  and for this purpose these boys are divided into experimental group and control group and after 1 hour of cartoons watching the researcher will observed boys for next two hours.

Hence the study is Controlled experiment.
