Answer:

  a) k = 2/5

  b) y = 2/5x

  c) y = 2 3/5

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>a)</h3>

The proportional relation is described by the equation ...

  y = kx . . . . . . k is the constant of proportionality

The value of k can be found by dividing the equation by x:

  y/x = k = (2 1/4)/(5 5/8) = (9/4)/(45/8) = 18/45

  k = 2/5

__

<h3>b)</h3>

As above, the equation is ...

  y = kx

  y = 2/5x

__

<h3>c)</h3>

Using 6.5 for x, we have ...

  y = (2/5)(6.5) = 2.6 = 2 3/5

(a)Use differentiation to find the minimum value of f(x)= 3x^2 - 5x + 10 and the value(s) of x for which this minimum occurs.
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

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.

Find the first 4 terms of the geometric sequence a1=40 and r=0.5
DedPeter [7]
For the answer to the question above, 
a1 = 40 
<span>a2 = 20 </span>
<span>a3 = 10 </span>
<span>.. </span>
<span>aN = (1/2^N-1) a1 { in general aN= (r^N-1) A1 </span>

<span>a5 = (1/2^4) 40 = 40/16 = 2.5
</span>
So the answer to your question is 2.5
