Answer with explanation:
Let us assume that the 2 functions are:
1) f(x)
2) g(x)
Now by definition of concave function we have the first derivative of the function should be strictly decreasing thus for the above 2 function we conclude that
Now the sum of the 2 functions is shown below
Diffrentiating both sides with respect to 'x' we get
Since each term in the right of the above equation is negative thus we conclude that their sum is also negative thus
Thus the sum of the 2 functions is also a concave function.
Part 2)
The product of the 2 functions is shown below
Diffrentiating both sides with respect to 'x' we get
Now we can see the sign of the terms on the right hand side depend on the signs of the function's themselves hence we remain inconclusive about the sign of the product as a whole. Thus the product can be concave or convex.
Answer:
1a. y-intercept: 12
1b. slope: -3/2
1c. equation: y = -3/2x +12
2a. y-intercept: -9
2b. slope: 2
2c. equation: y = 2x -9
Step-by-step explanation:
<h3>1.</h3>A) We observe the pattern to be <em>x-values in the table increase by 2, while y-values in the table decrease by 3</em>. We notice the first x-value is 2, so extending the table upward to x=0 would tell us the y-intercept. That is, adding 3 to the first y-value will give the y-intercept as (x, y) = (0, 12).
B) We have already observed that the "rise" (change in y) is -3 for each "run" (change in x) of 2. The slope is the ratio of these changes:
slope = m = rise/run = -3/2
C) From the above, we know that m=-3/2 and b=12. Putting these values into the equation for the line gives ...
y = -3/2x +12

<h3>2.</h3>A) We observe the pattern to be <em>y-values increase by 2 while x-values increase by 1</em>. As before, we can find the point that would go before the first one shown in the table. It will have an x-value of 0 and a y-value of -9.
the y-intercept is -9
the slope is 2/1 = 2
the equation is y = 2x -9
