Answer:

Minimum

Need to know:

Derivative power rule: d/dx xⁿ = nxⁿ⁻¹

Derivative constant rule: d/dx c = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

A way to determine whether the quadratic equation has a maximum or a minimum is by graphing it.

If we look at the image below, we notice that the graph does not go to the bottom infinitely, but it keeps going up infinitely. This means there is a minimum to this graph.

Another way to determine this is through calculus.

First, we have to find the point of extremum

Find the derivative of the given equation

d/dx 4x² -  3x - 43

You can separate the terms and solve them individually

d/dx 4x² = 4(2)(x²⁻¹) = 8x

d/dx -3x = -3(1)(x¹⁻¹) = -3(1)(1) = -3

d/dx -43 = 0

y' = 8x - 3

Set y' to equal 0

8x - 3 = 0

Add 3 to both sides

8x - 3 = 0

    + 3   + 3

8x = 3

Divide both sides by 8

8x/8 = 3/8

x = 3/8

There is only one point of extremum

Now we have to test whether the equation changes from negative to positive or positive to negative

If it changes from negative to positive, that point is a minimum

If it changes from positive to negative, that point is a maximum

To find this, pick a number less than 3/8 and plug it in the place of x in the derivative equation. We'll use 0.

y' = 8(0) - 3 = -3

Now we will do the same for a number larger than 3/8. We'll use 1

y' = 8(1) - 3 = 5

Since the lesser side of 3/8 is negative and the larger side of 3/8 is positive, that means it changes from negative to positive. This point is a minimum.

A minimum because the function is positive. Positive quadratic functions always concave upwards (in a “bowl-like” shape), creating a curve/minimum at the bottom.

Answer:

The answer is "\bold{\frac{6}{10}}"

Step-by-step explanation:

\to p(\frac{\text{Market is falling}}{\text{The expected demand is fall Don}}) =1\\\\\to p(\frac{\text{Market is falling}}{\text{The expected demand is rising Don}}) =0.6

That's why the answer is \to \frac{6}{10}

If a cat with short brown hair (llBb) is crossed with a cat with long black hair (Llbb), what is the likelihood that there will
Advocard [28]

Bb = brown hair phenotype

bb = black hair phenotype

we see that B = brown hair is the dominant gene while b = black hair is the recessive gene

----------------------------------

ll = short hair, this is a lowercase L

Ll = long hair

In this case, l = short hair is the recessive gene while L = long hair is the dominant gene.

----------------------------------

Check out the diagram below to see the dihybrid crosses for each of the hair color and hair length genotypes. From there, I show all of the genotypes possible for any offspring. Those genotypes are

  • LlBb  = long brown hair (comes up 4 times)
  • Llbb  = long black hair (comes up 4 times)
  • llBb  = short brown hair (comes up 4 times)
  • llbb  = short black hair (comes up 4 times)

-----------------------------------

If we are talking about 1 offspring, then it is not possible for him/her to have both "long black hair AND short brown hair" as the instructions state. So let's consider two offspring instead.

The probability of having long black hair is 4/16 = 1/4 as there are 4 cases of Llbb out of 16 cases total. Similarly, the probability of getting llBb is 4/16 = 1/4 as well, for pretty much the same reasons.

The probability of having both events occur is (1/4)*(1/4) = 1/16

The multiplication of probabilities is valid because the two events are independent.

==============================================

<h3>Final Answer: A) 1/16</h3>
