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)

Setup a rational equation and solve it from the word problem. Mr. Solberg can ride his scooter 3 miles against the wind in the s
dolphi86 [110]

Answer:

The speed of Mr Solberg's scooter when there is no wind is 35 miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

The time Mr. Solberg rides his scooter and cover 3 miles against the wind = The time Mr. Solberg rides his scooter and cover 4 miles with the wind

The speed of the wind = 5 miles per hour

Let v, represent the speed of Mr Solberg's scooter when there is no wind, we have;

Time = Distance/Speed

Mr Solberg's speed against the wind = v - 5

Mr Solberg's speed with the wind = v + 5

The distance covered at a given time, while riding against the wind = 3 miles

The distance covered at the same time, while riding with the wind = 4 miles

The time in both instances are therefore 3/(v - 5) = 4/(v + 5)

From which we have;

3 × (v + 5) = 4 × (v - 5)

3·v + 15 = 4·v - 20

20 + 15 = 4·v - 3·v

4·v - 3·v = 20 + 15

v = 35

The speed of Mr Solberg's scooter when there is no wind = v = 35 miles per hour.
