Answer:
14. C
15. C
Step-by-step explanation:
14. The function is entirely in quadrants I and II, so the leading coefficient is positive. This eliminates choices A and B.
The horizontal asymptote is 0, not -1, eliminating choice D.
The curve is best described by the equation of choice C.
__
15. The domain and range of an unadulterated exponential function are ...
domain: all real numbers; range: y > 0 . . . . matches choice C
First look for the fundamental solutions by solving the homogeneous version of the ODE:

The characteristic equation is

with roots
and
, giving the two solutions
and
.
For the non-homogeneous version, you can exploit the superposition principle and consider one term from the right side at a time.

Assume the ansatz solution,



(You could include a constant term <em>f</em> here, but it would get absorbed by the first solution
anyway.)
Substitute these into the ODE:




is already accounted for, so assume an ansatz of the form



Substitute into the ODE:





Assume an ansatz solution



Substitute into the ODE:



So, the general solution of the original ODE is

Answer:35 square
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x4+2x3+x2+5x+b=x-2x3+x+3
Step-by-step explanation:
The correct answer is C.
-5 is not greater than -3. Negatives are tricky; remember that the closer a negative is to zero, the greater that quantity actually is.
