Answer:

x = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 + 6x + 5 = x^2 + 2x - 3

x^2 + 6x = x^2 + 2x - 8

4x = -8

x = -2

Please read the answer below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Question 2. 25% of what number is 30?

25% - Whole 30, 50% Whole 60, 75% Whole 90, 100% Whole 120

Question 3. What operation did you use the find the whole?

In the previous question, I found the whole, adding 30 to the previous value.

For example, I added 30 to 30 and calculate 60. To 60 then i added 30 to get 90 and added 30 to get 120 because in this question, all the 4 parts were exactly the same size (30).

Question 4. What are you multiplying/dividing? Do you use the percent or something else?

In the specific case of question 2, I noticed that the size of the parts were exactly the same, using it for calculating the whole. If 1 part out of 4 is 30, then 2 parts or 50% are 60, 3 parts or 75% are 90 and then 4 parts of 100% are the whole I'm being asked, in this case, 120.

What are the coordinates of the turning point for the function f(x) = (x - 1)3 - 3? A. (-1, -3)

Naddik [55]

ANSWER

The turning point is

$(1,-3).$

EXPLANATION

The function given to us is

$f(x) = (x - 1) ^{3} - 3$

At turning point,
$f '(x) = 0$

So we need to differentiate the given function and equate it to zero.

We using the chain rule of differentiation, we obtain,
$f '(x) =3 (x - 1) ^{2}$

We equate this to zero to obtain,

$3 (x - 1) ^{2} = 0$

We divide through by 3.

$(x - 1) ^{2} = 0$

We solve for x to get,

$x - 1 = 0$

$x = 1$

We substitute this x-value in to the function to obtain the corresponding y-value of the turning point.

$f(1) = (1- 1) ^{3} - 3$

$f(1) = 0 - 3$

$f(1) = - 3$

Therefore the turning point is

$(1,-3)$

C is the correct answer.
