4x + x = 150, x=30 (shorter piece)

5x=150

x=150/5 = 30

4x=120

x=30

total = 150

Answer:

c is the correct option

Step-by-step explanation:

from,

f'(x) = h >0 f(x + h) - f(x)

f(x) = - √2x

f(x + h) = - √(2x + h)

f'(x) = h>0 -√(2x + h) - √2x

rationalize the denominator

= h>0 -√(2x + h) + √2x (-√(2x + h) - √2x)

h (-√(2x + h) - √2x)

= h>0 4x + 2h - 4x

h(-√(2x + h) -√2x)

= h>0 2h

h(-√(2x+h) - √2x)

= h>0  2 

-√(2x+h) - √2x
