I think the right answer is 0.75
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
f(x) = - 8
Explanation:
The given function is
f(x) =2x^2 -4x -6
The first step is to find the derivative of the function. Recall, if
y = ax^b
y' = abx^(b - 1)
Thus,
f'(x) = 4x - 4
We would equate f'(x) to zero and solve for x. We have
4x - 4 = 0
4x = 4
x = 4/4
x = 1
We would substitute x = 1 into the original function and solve for f(x) or y. It becomes
f(1) =2(1)^2 -4(1) - 6 = 2 - 4 - 6
f(1) = - 8
Thus, the minimum value is f(x) = - 8
Answer:
(x-7) (x-8)
Step-by-step explanation:
Break the expression into groups:
= x(x-7) -8(x-7)
Factor out x from:
x^2-7x x(x-7)
Factor out -8 from -8x+56:
-8(x-7)
=x\left(x-7\right)-8\left(x-7\right)
