Answer:
a is 11
Step-by-step explanation:
4+2(5)+-3 is ll
Answer:
B) -3/2
Step-by-step explanation:
If [x/2]=0 then x/2 is a number such that the least integer greater than or equal to x/2 is 0. We can rewrite this as the inequality x/2≤0. Then, the value of x in C, D and E is wrong because they are positive numbers, then x/2 would be a positive number which contradicts this inequality.
Now, 0 is the least integer that satisfies this inequality, therefore we cannot have that x/2≤-1 since -1 is an integer and -1<0. Then x/2>-1. This discards A as wrong, because for x=-2, x/2=-1, contrary to x/2>-1.
Thus B is the right answer. To verify, if x=-3/2, then x/2=-3/4 and we have that -1<-3/4≤0 as required.
We need to find thr rate of change (slope) of the line joining these two points ~
Slope of the line (m) joining the two points is 2 ~
Using the product rule, we have
so that
The equation of the tangent line to <em>W(x)</em> at <em>x</em> = 7 has all the information we need to determine <em>m'</em> (7).
When <em>x</em> = 7, the tangent line intersects with the graph of <em>W(x)</em>, and
<em>y</em> = 4.5 + 2 (7 - 7) ==> <em>y</em> = 4.5
means that this intersection occurs at the point (7, 4.5), and this in turn means <em>W</em> (7) = 4.5.
The slope of this tangent line is 2, so <em>W'</em> (7) = 2.
Then
