Answer:

f is increasing on interval (-infty, 13/4)

Inequality notation: x<13/4

In words: f is increasing on the interval of x that is less than 13/4.

Step-by-step explanation:

f is increasing on interval of x if f' of such interval is positive.

f=-2x^2+13x-8

Differentiate both sides

(f)'=(-2x^2+13x-8)'

Sum and difference rule:

f'=(-2x^2)'+(13x)'-(8)'

Constant multiple rule:

f'=-2(x^2)'+13(x)'-(8)'

Power rule (recall x=x^1):

f'=-2(2x^1)+13(1x^0)-(8)'

Constant rule:

f'=-2(2x^1)+13(1x^0)-(0)

Recall again x^1=x:

f'=-2(2x)+13(1x^0)-(0)

Recall x^0=1:

f'=-2(2x)+13(1×1)-(0)

Associative property of multiplication:

f'=-(2×2)x+13(1×1)-(0)

Performed grouped multiplication:

f'=-(4)x+13(1)-(0)

f'=-4x+13-(0)

Additive identity:

f'=-4x+13

f' is positive when -4x+13>0.

Subtract 13 on both sides:

-4x>-13

Divide both sides by -4:

x<-13/-4

x<13/4

f is increasing on interval (-infty, 13/4)

Give an example of a job that would have a y-intercept of $0 and another with a y-intercept of $20. What do these y-intercepts m
strojnjashka [21]

Answer

I) A job pays $15/hr with no bonus first day pay.

II) A job pays $15/hr with a $20 bonus first day pay.

Step-by-step explanation:

The y-intercepts would represent additional income that is added on to the base wage. It means it is what the worker would already earn (one-time), adding on to their standard pay.

Let X represent hours, and the y-intercept be what is mentioned above.

I) 15x + 0

II) 15x + 20

Make a the subject of a2+b2=c2
wel

Answer:

a=\sqrt{c^2-b^2

⇒ a=\sqrt{(c+b)(c-b)}        [Factorized form]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given expression:

a^2+b^2=c^2

We need to make a the subject.

In order to do that we need to solve the expression for a in terms of b and c

We have,

a^2+b^2=c^2

Subtracting both sides by b^2

a^2+b^2-b^2=c^2-b^2

a^2=c^2-b^2

Taking square root both sides in order to remove square of a

\sqrt{a^2}=\sqrt{c^2-b^2}

a=\sqrt{c^2-b^2

The difference of squares can be factorized and written  as:

a=\sqrt{(c+b)(c-b)}    [difference of squares x^2-y^2=(x+y)(x-y) ]
