Answer:
4. Infinitely many
Step-by-step explanation:
5x + 3(x − 1) = 10x − 2x − 3
5x+3x-3=8x-3
5x+3x-8x=3-3
0=0
x∈R
There is no graph, so it is impossible to answer this question. I apologise.
1/2 ton would be the correct answer since a single ton is 2,000 lbs
Answer:
The fifth degree Taylor polynomial of g(x) is increasing around x=-1
Step-by-step explanation:
Yes, you can do the derivative of the fifth degree Taylor polynomial, but notice that its derivative evaluated at x =-1 will give zero for all its terms except for the one of first order, so the calculation becomes simple:

and when you do its derivative:
1) the constant term renders zero,
2) the following term (term of order 1, the linear term) renders:
since the derivative of (x+1) is one,
3) all other terms will keep at least one factor (x+1) in their derivative, and this evaluated at x = -1 will render zero
Therefore, the only term that would give you something different from zero once evaluated at x = -1 is the derivative of that linear term. and that only non-zero term is:
as per the information given. Therefore, the function has derivative larger than zero, then it is increasing in the vicinity of x = -1
Answer:
The correct option is B
(-1)(1/2)(-1)(1)
Step-by-step explanation:
First thing to notice is that there is are two brackets with negative values, which means that the result must also be positive (or have two brackets with negative values).
Looking at the options, we can screen out options A and D, they have three brackets with negative values, and can't be chosen.
It is now between options B and C.
Option B, by inspection is simply 1/2
Option C is 12/4 = 3
The problem itself is 12/35
12/24 = 1/2
12/36 = 1/3
Since 12/35 is about 1/3, it is closer to 1/2 than 3, so 1/2 is the best option.
