Scalcet8 4. 2. 26. suppose that 2 ≤ f '(x) ≤ 4 for all values of x. what are the minimum and maximum possible values of f(4) − f(1)? ≤ f(4) − f(1) ≤ show my work (optional)

Answers

Answer 1

The minimum value of f(4) - f(1) is 6.

The maximum value of f(4) - f(1) is 12.

In the question, we are given that, 2 ≤ f'(x) ≤ 4 for all values of x.

Taking the given inequality as (i).

We are asked to find the minimum and maximum possible values of f(4) - f(1).

We multiply (i) by dx throughout, to get:

4dx ≤ f'(x)dx ≤ 5dx.

To find this, we integrate (i) in the definite interval [4, 1] with respect to dx, to get:

[tex]\int_{1}^{4}2dx \leq \int_{1}^{4}f'(x)dx \leq \int_{1}^{4}4dx\\\Rightarrow [2x]_{1}^{4} \leq [f(x)]_{1}^{4} \leq [4x]_{1}^{4}\\\Rightarrow 2*4 - 2*1 \leq f(4)-f(1) \leq 4*4 - 4*1\\\Rightarrow 6 \leq f(4) -f(1) \leq 12[/tex]

Thus, the minimum value of f(4) - f(1) is 6.

The maximum value of f(4) - f(1) is 12.

Verify that the intermediate value theorem applies to the indicated interval and find the value of c guaranteed by the theorem. f(x) = x2 7x 1, [0, 9], f(c) = 19 c =

Answers

we verified the intermidiate value theorem applies to the function f(x) = x^2 + 7x  + 1 . And the value of c is 2.

According to the given question.

We have a function.

f(x) = x^2 + 7x  + 1

As, we know that "the Intermediate Value Theorem (IVT) states that if f is a continuous function on [a,b] and f(a)<M<f(b), there exists some c∈[a,b] such that f(c)=M".

Now, we will apply the theorem for the given function f(x).

So,

f(0) = 0^2 +7(0) + 1 = 1

And,

f(9)=9² + 7(9) + 1 = 81 + 63 + 1 = 145

Here,  f(0) = 1< 19< 145 = f(9).

So, f is continous since it is a polynomial. Then the IVT applies, and such c exists.

To find, c,

We have to solve the quadratic equation f(c) =19.

This equation is

c² + 7c + 1 = 19.

Rearranging, c²+ 7c - 18=0.

Factor the expression to get

c² + 9c - 2c -18 = 0

⇒ c(c + 9) - 2( c + 9) = 0

⇒ (c - 2)(c + 9) = 0

⇒ c = 2 or -9

c = -9 is not possible beacuse it is not in the interval [0, 9].

So, the value of c is 2.

⇒ f(2) = 2^2 + 7(2) + 1 = 4 + 14 + 1 = 19

Hence, we verified the intermidiate value theorem applies to the function f(x) = x^2 + 7x  + 1 . And the value of c is 2.

4. Joe has five times as much money as Bill. However, Joe pays Bill $5 he owes him, after which Joe has just twice the amount Bill now has. How much money did each have in the beginning?​

Answers

Answer:

Bill starts with $5 and Joe starts with $25Step-by-step explanation:

Let Ji and Bi represent the initial amounts that Joe and Bill have at the start.  Number after J and B will be used to indicate subsequent steps in the problem.

We are told that "Joe has five times as much money as Bill," which we can write as:

   1)  Ji = 5Bi

We learn that "Joe pays Bill $5," which we can represent as:

   2)  J1 = Ji - 5

This would mean that Bill has added $5:

   3)  B1 = Bi + 5

We are then told that "Joe has just twice the amount Bill now has," which we can write as:

   4)  J1 = 2B1

===

We can rearrnage and substitute the above relationships to eliminate one of the two variables (B1 or J1)

J1 = Ji - 5                [from 2]

2B1 = Ji - 5              [Substitute 4 to eliminate J1]

Ji = 5Bi                    [from 1]

2B1 = 5Bi - 5           [Substitute 1 to eliminate Ji]

B1 = Bi + 5               [Rearrange]

2(Bi + 5) = 5Bi - 5    [Use the above expression in the previous equation to eliminate B1]

2Bi + 10 = 5Bi - 5    [Simplify]

-3Bi = -15                  [Simplify]

Bi = $5                       [Solve]

Ji = 5Bi                    [from 1]

Ji = 5*(5)                  [Since Bi = $5]

Ji = $25                    [Solve]  

Bi = $5 and Ji = $25

===

CHECK:

Does Joe has five times as much money as Bill?

Ji = $25 and Bi = $5  YES

When Joe pays Bill $5 he owes him, does Joe has just twice the amount Bill now has?

J1 = $25 - $5 = $20

B1 = $5 + $5  = $10    YES

The height of the triangle can be found as follows:

We have to find an angle using cosine law before  we can find the height.

Therefore,

20² = 13² + 21² - 2 × 21 × 13 cos B

400 = 169 + 441  - 546 cos B

400 - 610 = - 546 cos B

-210 = - 546 cos B

cos B = -210 / -546

cos B = 0.38461538461

B = cos⁻¹ 0.38461538461

B = 67.3810899783

B = 67.38°

The area using the left-hand sum is the sum of products of the function value at the left side of the interval and the width of the interval.

Area

The attachment shows a table of the x-value at the left side of each interval, and the corresponding function value there. The interval width is 1 unit in every case, so the desired area is simply the sum of the function values.

The approximate area is 67 square units.

with [tex]i\in\{1,2,3,4,5,6\}[/tex].

The area under [tex]f(x)=x^2+2[/tex] on the interval [0, 6] is then given by the definite integral and approximated by the Riemann sum,

Answers

Answer:

100 miles

Cost = $63

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume that the distance driven for both plans when they both equal in cost is X miles

Plan 1

Cost = 48  + 0.15X

Plan2

Cost = 53 + 0.1X

If they are both equal then

48 + 0.15X = 53 + 0.10X

Collecting like terms

0.15X - 0.10X = 53 - 48

0.05X = 5

X 5/0.05 = 100 miles

Answer:

[tex]a = 1, \ - 3[/tex]

Explanation:

[tex](a-6)(a+8) = -45[/tex]

distribute

[tex]a^2 + 8a - 6a - 48 = -45[/tex]

collect terms

[tex]a^2 + 8a - 6a - 48 + 45=0[/tex]

simplify

[tex]a^2 + 2a - 3=0[/tex]

factor

[tex](a - 1)(a + 3)= 0[/tex]

set to zero

[tex]a = 1, \ - 3[/tex]

Answer:

a = 1,  -3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation:

[tex](a-6)(a+8)=-45[/tex]

Expand the brackets:

[tex]\implies a^2+8a-6a-48=-45[/tex]

[tex]\implies a^2+2a-48=-45[/tex]

Add 45 to both sides:

[tex]\implies a^2+2a-48+45=-45+45[/tex]

[tex]\implies a^2+2a-3=0[/tex]

To factor a quadratic in the form [tex]ax^2+bx+c[/tex], find two numbers that multiply to [tex]ac[/tex] and sum to [tex]b[/tex].  

Two numbers that multiply to -3 and sum to 2 are: 3 and -1.  

Rewrite the middle term as the sum of these two numbers:

[tex]\implies a^2+3a-a-3=0[/tex]

Factorize the first two terms and the last two terms separately:

[tex]\implies a(a+3)-1(a+3)=0[/tex]

Factor out the common term (a + 3):

[tex]\implies (a-1)(a+3)=0[/tex]

Apply the zero product property:

[tex]\implies (a-1)=0 \implies a=1[/tex]

[tex]\implies (a+3)=0 \implies a=-3[/tex]

Verify the solutions by inputting the found values of a into the original equation:

[tex]a=1 \implies (1-6)(1+8) & =-5 \cdot 9 = -45[/tex]

[tex]a=-3 \implies (-3-6)(-3+8) & =-9 \cdot 5 = -45[/tex]

Hence both found values of a are solutions of the given equation.

Is there any number in base 10 (positive or negative) that can be written in multiple
ways in base −4? Can you prove it? If yes, provide the number and the base −4
representations, and if no, show why.

Answers

The true statement is that no number in base 10 can be written in multiple ways in base 4

How to determine the true statement?

The base of the numbers are given as:

Base 10 and base 4

Base 10 numbers are also referred to as decimal numbers, while base 4 numbers are quaternary numbers

There is only one equivalent of each number in each base.

This means that (for instance)

357 in base 10 is 11211 in base 4

The above number does not have any other representation in base 4 and it can not be written in another way.

This is the same for other numbers in base 10

Hence, the true statement is that no number in base 10 can be written in multiple ways in base 4

Solve the following systems of equations algebraically:
[tex]\left \{ {{y=\frac{1}{2}*2^x } \atop {y=5x+2}} \right.[/tex]

Answers

The value of x in the system of equation is 6

How to solve the system of equations?

The system of equations is given as:

y = 1/2 * 2^x

y = 5x + 2

Substitute y = 1/2 * 2^x in y = 5x + 2

1/2 * 2^x = 5x + 2

Multiply through by 2

2^x = 10x + 4

Next, we use the trial by error.

Set x = 6

This gives

2^6 = 10 * 6 + 4

Evaluate the product and the exponent

64 = 60 + 4

Evaluate the sum

64 = 64

Hence, the value of x in the system of equation is 6
