relative extrema of f(x)=(x+3)/(x-2)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]\displaystyle f(x) = \frac{x + 3}{x - 2}[/tex] has no relative extrema when the domain is [tex]\mathbb{R} \backslash \lbrace 2 \rbrace[/tex] (the set of all real numbers other than [tex]2[/tex].)

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume that the domain of [tex]\displaystyle f(x) = \frac{x + 3}{x - 2}[/tex] is [tex]\mathbb{R} \backslash \lbrace 2 \rbrace[/tex] (the set of all real numbers other than [tex]2[/tex].)

Let [tex]f^{\prime}(x)[/tex] and [tex]f^{\prime\prime}(x)[/tex] denote the first and second derivative of this function at [tex]x[/tex].

Since this domain is an open interval, [tex]x = a[/tex] is a relative extremum of this function if and only if [tex]f^{\prime}(a) = 0[/tex] and [tex]f^{\prime\prime}(a) \ne 0[/tex].

Hence, if it could be shown that [tex]f^{\prime}(x) \ne 0[/tex] for all [tex]x \in \mathbb{R} \backslash \lbrace 2 \rbrace[/tex], one could conclude that it is impossible for [tex]\displaystyle f(x) = \frac{x + 3}{x - 2}[/tex] to have any relative extrema over this domain- regardless of the value of [tex]f^{\prime\prime}(x)[/tex].

[tex]\displaystyle f(x) = \frac{x + 3}{x - 2} = (x + 3) \, (x - 2)^{-1}[/tex].

Apply the product rule and the power rule to find [tex]f^{\prime}(x)[/tex].

[tex]\begin{aligned}f^{\prime}(x) &= \frac{d}{dx} \left[ (x + 3) \, (x - 2)^{-1}\right] \\ &= \left(\frac{d}{dx}\, [(x + 3)]\right)\, (x - 2)^{-1} \\ &\quad\quad (x + 3)\, \left(\frac{d}{dx}\, [(x - 2)^{-1}]\right) \\ &= (x - 2)^{-1} \\ &\quad\quad+ (x + 3) \, \left[(-1)\, (x - 2)^{-2}\, \left(\frac{d}{dx}\, [(x - 2)]\right) \right] \\ &= \frac{1}{x - 2} + \frac{-(x+ 3)}{(x - 2)^{2}} \\ &= \frac{(x - 2) - (x + 3)}{(x - 2)^{2}} = \frac{-5}{(x - 2)^{2}}\end{aligned}[/tex].

In other words, [tex]\displaystyle f^{\prime}(x) = \frac{-5}{(x - 2)^{2}}[/tex] for all [tex]x \in \mathbb{R} \backslash \lbrace 2 \rbrace[/tex].

Since the numerator of this fraction is a non-zero constant, [tex]f^{\prime}(x) \ne 0[/tex] for all [tex]x \in \mathbb{R} \backslash \lbrace 2 \rbrace[/tex]. (To be precise, [tex]f^{\prime}(x) < 0[/tex] for all [tex]x \in \mathbb{R} \backslash \lbrace 2 \rbrace\![/tex].)

Hence, regardless of the value of [tex]f^{\prime\prime}(x)[/tex], the function [tex]f(x)[/tex] would have no relative extrema over the domain [tex]x \in \mathbb{R} \backslash \lbrace 2 \rbrace[/tex].

For the given piecewise function, evaluate for the specified value of x.

Answers

Answer:

g(-3) = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The x-value -3 lies within the given interval x ≤ -3, and so the correct piecewise function is x + 4, not -4 or -1.  Evaluating x + 4 at x = -3 yields 1.

Thus, g(-3) = 1

The required value of the function g(x) at x = -3 , g(-3) is +1.

Given that,
A function is given with their domain,
g(x) = x + 4 when x≤
g(x) = 4 when -3 < x < 3
g(x) = - 1 when x ≥ 3

What are functions?

Functions are the relationship between sets of values. e g y=f(x), for every value of x there is its exists in a set of y. x is the independent variable while Y is the dependent variable.

Here, Function has been given with their respective limit in which the function is defined,
For the value of g(-3) the value of x = -3 lies in the limit x ≤ -3
So for this limit, we have a function,
g(x) = x + 4
g(-3) = - 3 + 4
g(-3) = +1

The required value of the function g(x) at x = -3 , g(-3) is +1.

An organic farm has been growing an heirloom variety of summer squash. A sample of the weights of 40 summer squash revealed that the mean weight is 402.7 grams and the standard deviation 8.8 grams. What is the probability that the mean weight for a sample of 40 summer squash exceeds 405.5 grams?
a. 0.3783.
b. 0.0228.
c. 1.0000.
d. 0.5000.

Answers

Answer:

b. 0.0228

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

n=40

Mean,[tex]\mu=402.7 g[/tex]

Standard deviation, [tex]\sigma=8.8[/tex]g

We have to find the probability hat the mean weight for a sample of 40 summer squash exceeds 405.5 grams.

[tex]P(x>405.5)=P(\frac{x-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}>\frac{405.5-402.7}{\frac{8.8}{\sqrt{40}}})[/tex]

[tex]P(x>405.5)=P(Z>\frac{2.8}{\frac{8.8}{\sqrt{40}}})[/tex]

[tex]P(x>405.5)=P(Z>2.01)[/tex]

[tex]P(x>405.5)=1-P(Z\leq 2.01)[/tex]

[tex]P(x>405.5)=1-0.977784[/tex]

[tex]P(x>405.5)=0.022216[/tex]

Hence, option b is correct.

A special right triangle is a right triangle with some regular feature that makes calculations on the triangle easier, or for which simple formulas exist.

The ratio between the corresponding side of each angle is 1 : √3 : 2

If you are still confused, please refer to the attachment below for a graphical explanation.

Solve:

30-60-90 ⇔ 1 : √3 : 2

Given the side corresponding to 90° is 20

30° : 90° = 1 : 2

30° : 20 = 1 : 2

30° = 10

30° : 60° = 1 : √3

10 : 60° = 1 : √3

60° = 10√3

What is a trapezium?

It is a quadrilateral that has one pair of parallel sides and a height.

The area is calculated as: 1/2 x sum of the parallel sides x height.

Examples:

Area of a trapezium that has the parallel sides as 3 cm and 4 cm and a heght o 5 cm.

Area = 1/2 x (3 + 4) x 5

Area = 1/2 x 7 x 5

Area = 35/2 = 17.5 cm^2

We have,

In a trapezoid, the median is the average of the parallel sides,

So we have:

QR

= (NO + MP)/2

= (x + x + 8)/2

= (2x + 8)/2

= x + 4

Since we also know that QR = 20, we can set the two expressions equal to each other and solve for x:

x + 4 = 20

Matt buys a new fish tank. The fish tank is in the shape of a cuboid. The diagram shows water in the tank. 30 cm 30 cm 100 cm Matt knows 1000 cm' = 1 litre 1 gallons = 4.5 litres He can keep 2 small fish in the tank for every 1 gallon of water in the tank. Matt thinks he can keep more than 36 small fish in the tank. Is Matt correct?​

Answers

Answer: Yes, but only if he houses 37, 38, 39, or 40 fish

Anything larger than 40 and he'll need more room.

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

Explanation:

The tank is 30 cm by 30 cm by 100 cm. The volume is 30*30*100 = 90,000 cm^3 which is shorthand for "cubic centimeters".

We're told that 1000 cm^3 = 1 liter, which means the 90,000 cm^3 converts to (90,000)/(1000) = 90 liters.

The fish tank is 90 liters.

Since 1 gallon = 4.5 liters, this means the 90 liter tank converts to 90/(4.5) = 20 gallons

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

Your teacher mentions "He can keep 2 small fish for every 1 gallon".

Since the tank is 20 gallons, that means he can keep 20*2 = 40 fish. This value is larger than 36, so Matt is correct to a point. If Matt is thinking 37, 38, 39, or 40 fish then he would be correct. If Matt is wanting more than 40 fish, then he'll need a bigger tank.

In short, he can't have any number over 36 and can only have 4 specific values (the four values mentioned earlier).

So technically, Matt is correct, but strong clarification is needed.

Part 2: Find the mean absolute deviation of this set of data.
Part 3: Using complete sentences, explain what your results for part A and B mean.
i really need an answer for part c

Answers

Part A

To find the mean, we add up the values and divide by n = 8 since there are 8 values in this set.

Adding the values gets us

28+45+12+34+36+45+19+20 = 239

Dividing this over 8 then leads to 239/8 = 29.875

Answer: 29.875

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

Part B

We'll subtract each data value from the mean. We apply absolute value to ensure the result is never negative.

|28 - 29.875| = 1.875 |45 - 29.875| = 15.125 |12 - 29.875| = 17.875 |34 - 29.875| = 4.125 |36 - 29.875| = 6.125 |45 - 29.875| = 15.125 |19 - 29.875| = 10.875 |20 - 29.875| = 9.875

The list of results we get so far is:

1.875, 15.125, 17.875, 4.125, 6.125, 15.125, 10.875, 9.875

This represents the distance each value is from the mean.

Add these values up and divide by n = 8

1.875+15.125+17.875+4.125+6.125+15.125+10.875+9.875 = 81

81/8 = 10.125

Answer: 10.125

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

Part C

The result of part A is one way to measure the center of the distribution of values. It's the average value, which can more or less represent the entire group. Think of it being like how people vote in a senator to represent them in congress. Ideally, this senator is a supposed "average" person to represent everyone.

The result of part B builds on what part A found. The result of part B is the average distance each value is from the center. This is because each time we subtracted and applied absolute value, we found the distance that item was from the mean.

Example: The calculation |28 - 29.875| = 1.875 shows that 28 is exactly 1.875 units from the mean 29.875

By adding up those results and dividing by 8, we are finding the average distance from the mean. Effectively, it tells us how spread out the data set is. The mean absolute deviation (MAD) is a measure of spread in a similar fashion that the standard deviation is, or in a more looser sense, the range is as well.

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

In short, the result of part A is a measure of center while the result of part B is a measure of spread. I use "a" instead of "the" because there are other measures of center and other measures of spread.
