Hi there!

Begin by differentiating f(x) using the power rule:

dy/dx = nxⁿ⁻¹

Therefore:

f(x) = 3x² - 5x + 10

f'(x) = 6x - 5

Set this equation equal to 0 to find the x-intercept:

0 = 6x - 5

5 = 6x

x = 5/6, which is where the graph goes from NEGATIVE to POSITIVE, so there is a MINIMUM at this value.

Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

90 Minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

If he took 27 minutes to do 30% of his homework, then we can reverse the operation to find the total amount

30% is the same as 0.3, therefore you divide 27 by 0.3 because the 100% is 1, so by dividing you'll get the 100%.
