Sketch a graph of the polynomial function f(x) = –x3 + 5x2 – 2x – 8. Use the graph to complete the following:f is __________ on the intervals (–∞, 1/3) and (3, ∞)f is __________ on the interval (1/3, 3)f is __________ on the intervals (–∞, -1) and (2, 4)

Answers

To sketch the graph, we need to find the x-intercepts and y-intercepts.

To find the x-intercepts we solve the equation when y = 0.

That is

[tex]-x^3+5x^2-2x-8=0[/tex][tex]\begin{gathered} f(-1)=-(-1)^3+5(-1)^2-2(-1)-8=1+5+2-8=0 \\ \text{Hence} \\ x=-1\text{ is a zero of f(x)} \\ \Rightarrow\text{ x+1 is a factor of f(x)} \end{gathered}[/tex]

Next, we find the result of :

[tex]\frac{f(x)}{x+1}[/tex][tex]\begin{gathered} So \\ \frac{-x^3+5x^2-2x-8}{x+1}=-x^2+6x-8 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Now we solve

[tex]\begin{gathered} -x^2+6x-8=0 \\ \Rightarrow-x^2+2x+4x-8=0 \\ \Rightarrow-x(x-2)+4(x-2)=0 \\ \Rightarrow(4-x)(x-2)=0 \\ \Rightarrow x=4\text{ or 2} \end{gathered}[/tex]

So the zeros of f(x) are -1, 2, and 4

Next, we find the stationary points.

[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{df(x)}{dx}=-3x^2+10x-2 \\ \text{When }\frac{df(x)}{dx}=0,\text{ we have} \end{gathered}[/tex][tex]\begin{gathered} -3x^2+10x-2=0 \\ \text{Dividing through by -3 we have} \\ x^2-\frac{10}{3}x+\frac{2}{3}=0 \end{gathered}[/tex][tex]\begin{gathered} (x-\frac{5}{3})^2-(-\frac{5}{3})^2-2=0 \\ \Rightarrow(x-\frac{5}{3})^2=2+\frac{25}{9}=\frac{43}{9} \\ \Rightarrow x=\frac{5\pm\sqrt[]{43}}{3} \\ \Rightarrow x=2.55\text{ or }0.78 \end{gathered}[/tex][tex]\frac{d\frac{df(x)}{dx}}{dx}=-6x+10[/tex]

At x = 2.55

[tex]\frac{d\frac{df(x)}{dx}}{dx}=-6(2.55)+10=-5.3<0[/tex]

Hence we have a maximum point at x = 2.55

[tex]\frac{d\frac{df(x)}{dx}}{dx}=-6(0.78)+10=5.32>0[/tex]

Hence, there is a minimum point at x = 0.78

[tex]\begin{gathered} f(0.78)\text{ = }-6.99 \\ f(2.550=2.83 \end{gathered}[/tex][tex]\begin{gathered} To\text{ check the intervals where the function increasing or decreasing} \\ \text{For x < 0.78 } \\ \frac{df(x)}{dx}=(x-0.78)(x-2.83)\text{ is positive} \\ \text{For 0.78 < x < 2.83 } \\ \frac{df(x)}{dx}=(x-0.78)(x-2.83)\text{ is negative} \\ \text{For x > 2.83} \\ \frac{df(x)}{dx}=(x-0.78)(x-2.83)\text{ is positive} \end{gathered}[/tex]

This implies that

f is increasing on the intervals (–∞, 1/3) and (3, ∞)

Jose went to another store that has a sale of 25% off everything. He wants to buy jeans that cost $40. How much money will he save on the jeans?

Joey invented an electric light device to put on his 26-inch diameter bicycle
wheel. Every time the tire makes a full revolution, a wire touches a battery
contact and a light flashes on the back of the bike seat. How many times will
the light flash if he rides 50 yards?
π = 3.14
F
G
H
J
2 times
7 times
22 times
82 times

Answers

If he rides 50 yards then the light will flash 22 times.

Given,

Diameter of wheel =26 inch

Radius of wheel,r=[tex]\frac{26}{2}=13 inch[/tex]

Distance covered by bicycle =50 yards =50*36=1800 inch

First find the perimeter of wheel,

[tex]Perimeter =2\pi r\\\\Perimeter =2*3.14*13\\\\Perimeter =81.64[/tex]

This perimeter represents the distance covered for 1 revolution

Now, to find number of times of revolution,

[tex]\frac{Total\ distance\ covered }{distance\ covered\ for\ 1\ revolution}\\\\=\frac{1800}{81.64}\\\\=22.04[/tex]

So,it will take 22 revolutions to complete the whole distance.

Hence, the light will flash 22 times if he rides 50 yards.

Using the horizontal and vertical separations from the two reference axes, a coordinate is a pair of numbers that expresses a point's location on a coordinate plane. generally expressed by the x-value and y-value pair (x,y).

We have to find the coordinate of first stop of bus which is halfway through the route.

It means, We have to find the coordinates of the midpoint of line segment which has start point and end point coordinates as A(-10, 10) and B(8, -8).

The formula to get the mid point coordinate of a line segment which start point and end point coordinates as A(x₁, y₁) and B(x₂, y₂) is:

[tex]M(a,b) = (\frac{x_2 -x_1}{2} , \frac{y_2-y_1}{2} )[/tex]

putting the value from question:

[tex]M(a,b) = (\frac{8 -(-10)}{2} , \frac{-8-10}{2} )[/tex]

M(a, b) = (9, -9)

Therefore the coordinate of the midpoint is (9, -9)

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of an event is represented by the following equation;

Therefore, from a 52-card deck which is better shown with the following image:

If Patriciana has 4 more dimes than nickels and they have a combined value of 100 cents, how many of each coin does she have?

Answers

Patriciana has (20/9) nickels and (80/9) dimes of coins .

Evaluation for the number of dimes and nickels.

There are 5 cents in a nickel and 10 cents in a dime.

Let the number of number of nickels be represented by the letter x, so that the number of dimes Patriciana has will be 4x.

So, 5x cents + 10 × 4x cents = 100 cents

5x cents + 40 cents = 100 cents

45x cents = 100 cents

divide through by the coefficient of x

x = 100cents/45cents

x = 20/9 by simplification,

and the number of dimes is calculated by putting 20/9 for x in 4x.

Hence, the number of dimes is 4(20/9) = 80/9 and that of nickels is 20/9.

Rebekah walks 10 miles in 3 hours. At what unit rate does Rebekahwalk?10/3 miles / 1 hour3 miles / 10 hoursООО10 miles / 3 hours3 hours / 10 miles

Answers

ANSWER

(10/3 miles) / (1 hour)

EXPLANATION

A unit rate is a rate where the denominator is 1. In this problem, the denominator is the time in hours. If Rebekah walks 10 miles in 3 hours, we have to find how many miles will she walk in 1 hour,

[tex]1hour\cdot\frac{10miles}{3hours}=\frac{10}{3}miles[/tex]

She will run 10/3 miles in 1 hour. Hence the unit rate is (10/3 miles) / (1 hour).

A basket contains 5 pieces of paper numbered from 1 to 5. A hat contains the letters A, B, C and D. If a blindfolded person picks a number and then a letter, what is the probability that the number is greater than 3 AND the letter is C?

Answers

We have a basket and a hat.

The basket has the numbers 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5.

The hat contains the letters A, B, C and D.

We have to calculate the probabiltiy of drawing a number that is greater than 3 from the basket and drawing the letter C from the hat.

We have two events:

- Drawing a number greater than 3 from the basket

- Drawing a C from the hat

They are independent as the probability of each on does not depend on the outcome of the other event.

Then, we can calculate the probability of the two events happening together as the product of its probabilities:

[tex]P(n>3&l=C)=P(n>3)\cdot P(l=C)[/tex]

The probability of drawing a number greater than 3 can be described as 2/5, as we have 2 numbers greater than 3 (4 and 5) out of 5 numbers in the basket.

The probability of drawing a letter C can be described as 1/4, as we have one letter C out of 4 letters available.

Then, we can calculate the probability as:

[tex]\begin{gathered} P(n>3&l=C)=P(n>3)\cdot P(l=C) \\ P(n>3&l=C)=\frac{2}{5}\cdot\frac{1}{4}=\frac{2}{20}=\frac{1}{10} \end{gathered}[/tex]

Answer: the probability is 1/10 or 0.1.

Given:

[tex]6,\text{ }7,\text{ }8,\text{ and }9.[/tex]

Required:

We have to find the probability of picking a 7 and then picking a 7.

Explanation:

When you pick the first card there are four possibilities out of which only one card is numbered as 7.

Therefore, the probability of picking a 7 is

[tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex]

Before picking the second card you have put back the first card. So when you pick the second card there are four possibilities out of which only one card is numbered as 7.

Therefore, the probability of picking a 7 is

[tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex]

Hence the probability of picking a 7 and then picking a 7 is

[tex]\frac{1}{4}\times\frac{1}{4}=\frac{1}{16}[/tex]

Final answer:

Hence the final answer is

[tex]\frac{1}{16}[/tex]
