Answer:

-3 - (-1) = <u>-2</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

First simplify:

-3 - (-1)

= -3 + 1

Then, take the sign of the larger number (i.e., the negative sign).

= -2

Hope this helps; have a great day!

Find the absolute maximum and minimum values of the following function on the given interval. If there are multiple points in a

Bond [772]

$f(x)=3\sin x+3\cos x\implies f'(x)=3\cos x-3\sin x$

$f$ has critical points where $f'=0$ :

$3\cos x-3\sin x=0\implies\cos x=\sin x\implies\tan x=1\implies x=\pm\dfrac\pi4+2n\pi$

where $n$ is any integer. We get solutions in the interval $\left[0,\frac\pi3\right]$ for $n=0$ , for which $x=\frac\pi4$ .

At this critical point, we have $f\left(\frac\pi4\right)=3\sqrt2\approx4.243$ .

At the endpoints of the given interval, we have $f(0)=3$ and $f\left(\frac\pi3\right)=\frac{3+3\sqrt3}2\approx4.098$ .

So we have the extreme values

$\max\limits_{x\in\left[0,\frac\pi3\right]}f=3\sqrt2$

$\min\limits_{x\in\left[0,\frac\pi3\right]}f=3$

Use the discriminant to determine the number and type of solutions for the following equation. 12x2 + 10x + 5 = 0

Paul [167]

Discriminant D is given by:
D=b²-4ac
Implication of discriminant is as follows:

D<0 two zeros that are complex conjugate
D=0 one real zero of multiplicity 2
D>0 two distinct real zers
D= (+ve perfet square) two distinct rational zeros
From:
12x^2+10x+5=0
plugging in the equation we get:
10²-4×12×5
=100-240
=-140
thus
D<0

Answer is:
<span>A two irrational solutions </span>
