The maxima of f(x) occur at its critical points, where f '(x) is zero or undefined. We're given f '(x) is continuous, so we only care about the first case. Looking at the plot, we see that f '(x) = 0 when x = -4, x = 0, and x = 5.

Notice that f '(x) ≥ 0 for all x in the interval [0, 5]. This means f(x) is strictly increasing, and so the absolute maximum of f(x) over [0, 5] occurs at x = 5.

By the fundamental theorem of calculus,

\displaystyle f(5) = f(0) + \int_0^5 f'(x) \, dx

The definite integral corresponds to the area of a trapezoid with height 2 and "bases" of length 5 and 2, so

\displaystyle \int_0^5 f'(x) \, dx = \frac{5+2}2 \times 2 = 7

\implies \max\{f(x) \mid 0\le x \le5\} = f(5) = f(0) + 7 = \boxed{13}

Let r and s be the roots of x^2 - 6x + 2 = 0. Find (r - s)^2.
Sphinxa [80]

Answer: (r-s)^{2} = 28

Step-by-step explanation:

  • x^{2} -6x+9=-2+9
  • (x-3)^{2}=7
  • (x-3)= -\sqrt{7} or \sqrt{7} <-- there's no plus/minus sign.
  • (x-3) = -\sqrt{7}
  • x = 3 -\sqrt{7} <-- root.
  • (x-3) = \sqrt{7}
  • x = 3+\sqrt{7} <-- root.
  • [(3-\sqrt{7})-(3+\sqrt{7})]^{2}
  • (3-\sqrt{7} -3 - \sqrt{7})^{2} <-- don't forget to distribute the negative.
  • (-2\sqrt{7})^{2}
  • (4)(7)

19. A cross section of a water trough is in the shape of trapezoid with bases measuring 4 m and 12 m. what is the length of the
ludmilkaskok [199]

Given:

The bases of trapezoid measuring 4 m and 12 m.

To find:

The median of the trapezoid.

Solution:

The median of the trapezoid is the average of its bases.

\text{Median}=\dfrac{\text{Upper base + Lower base}}{2}

The bases of trapezoid measuring 4 m and 12 m. So, the median of the trapezoid is:

\text{Median}=\dfrac{4+12}{2}

\text{Median}=\dfrac{16}{2}

\text{Median}=8

Therefore, the correct option is C.
