To solve for this, we need to find for the value of x
when the 1st derivative of the equation is equal to zero (or at the
extrema point).
So what we have to do first is to derive the given
equation:
f (x) = x^2 + 4 x – 31
Taking the first derivative f’ (x):
f’ (x) = 2 x + 4
Setting f’ (x) = 0 and find for x:
2 x + 4 = 0
x = - 2
Therefore the value of a is:
a = f (-2)
a = (-2)^2 + 4 (-2) – 31
a = 4 – 8 – 31
a = - 35
Answer:
355.2
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Four percent of Jennie's skin cells were burned
Total skin cells having Jennie = 3.7 x 10^10
=
To find:
How man skin cells were not burned ?
Solution:
Total skin cells having Jennie = 370
Percent of Jennie's skin cells were burned = 4%
Skin cells burned from a fire =
=
=
Remaining skin cells which not burned = 370 - 14.8 = 355.2
Therefore, 355.2 skin cells were not burned.
Since the standard deviation is the square root of variance. The only times where the standard deviation is greater than the variance is when the variance is between the values 0 and 1 exclusively. For example, the square root of 0.25 is 0.5.
Polynomial is an expression consisting of variables and coefficients, that involves only the operations of addition, subtraction, multiplication, and non-negative integer exponents of variables.
Answer:
9 cans of tomato soup
Step-by-step explanation:
We are told that only cans of tomato soup and cans of chicken soup are put on the shelf.
Now, we are told that the ratio of the number of cans of chicken noodle soup to the total number of cans on the shelf was 8 to 17.
In fraction, this is 8/17
Now, this implies that there are 8 cans of chicken noodle soup while there are a total of 17 cans on the shelf.
Thus,
Since only cans of chicken noodles and cans of tomato soup are on the shelf, it means;
Cans of tomato soup = 17 - 8 = 9
