How would you describe the end behavior of the graph of a polynomial function based on its equation?

The maximum value of f(x,y) on the unit of circle is [tex]\frac{48 \sqrt{21}}{2,401}[/tex].

The full question is in the attachment. From the unit circle

Substitute to f(x,y)

f(x,y) = x³y⁴ = x³ (y²)² = x³ (1 - x²)²

f(x,y) = x³ (1 - 2x² + x⁴)

f(x,y) = x³ - 2x⁵ + x⁷

df/dx = 3x² - (2 × 5)x⁴ + 7x⁶

df/dx = 3x² - 10x⁴ + 7x⁶

df/dx = x² (3 - 10x² + 7x⁴)

To find the maximum or minimum value, the derivated equals zero.

0 = x² (7x⁴ - 10x² + 3)

0 = x² (x - 1) (x + 1) (7x² - 3)

7x² - 3 = 0

Using ABC formula

The correct answer for this is x= -1, x = -2 and x =-3

The end behavior of the graph of the polynomial function y = 10x^9 + 4x is asymptotic to negative infinity as x approaches negative infinity, and asymptotic to positive infinity as x approaches positive infinity.

The end behavior of a polynomial function is determined by the degree of the polynomial. The polynomial function y = 10x^9 + 4x is a degree 9 polynomial, so it will exhibit an asymptotic behavior in which the graph approaches either positive or negative infinity as x approaches either positive or negative infinity. In this case, the graph will approach negative infinity as x approaches negative infinity, and it will approach positive infinity as x approaches positive infinity. This behavior is due to the fact that the highest degree term (10x^9) will dominate the behavior of the graph as x gets very large in either the positive or negative direction. The lower degree terms (4x) will have a smaller effect on the end behavior of the graph.

Answer:

x >= 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

y = (e^x + 1)/3

x = (e^y + 1)/3   ==> inverse function is when you switch x and y

3*x = 3 * (e^y + 1)/3   ==> solve for y by first multiplying both sides by 3

3x = e^y + 1

3x - 1 = e^y + 1 - 1

3x - 1 = e^y  ==> now take natural log on each side to isolate y

ln(3x - 1) = ln(e^y)

y = ln(3x - 1)  ==> simplify

[tex]f^{-1}[/tex](x) = ln(3x - 1)  ==> plug in [tex]f^{-1}[/tex](x) for y to indicate the inverse function

3x - 1 >= 0  ==> you can't have the log function of a negative number

3x - 1 + 1 >= 0 + 1  ==> add 1 on both sides to isolate x

3x >= 1

3x/3 >= 1/3

x >= 1/3

The factors of 3[tex]x^{2}[/tex] -4x -4 is (3x+2)(x-2)

Let's start by putting empty brackets.

()

We know that 3[tex]x^{2}[/tex] is 3x*x

Each of these can be inserted into a particular bracket.

(3x)(x)

The factors of -4 are then examined. How many different methods are there to multiply two numbers to reach -4?

1 × -4 = -4

2 × -2 = -4

Choosing which pair to utilize and  where to place each is now the challenging part. You might need to try each one separately at first, but with practice this will become simpler. I'll begin with the right couple, which are +2 and -2.

(3x + 2)(x - 2)

We can enlarge it once again to confirm whether this is accurate. Do not forget to multiply each value in the second bracket by each value in the first bracket

so, 3x *x = 3[tex]x^{2}[/tex]

3x *  -2 = -6x

Then

2 * x =2x

2 * -2 = -4

All of these together gives us 3[tex]x^{2}[/tex] - 6x +2x -4 which is 3[tex]x^{2}[/tex] - 4x -4

If we had reversed the factors by putting (3x−2)(x+2), it would have given us 3[tex]x^{2}[/tex] - 4x -4, which is close but not exactly what we are looking for.

A discontinuity is a point at which a function is not continuous. This means that there is a break or gap in the function at that point, which can be caused by a variety of factors such as a sudden change in the value of the function, a division by zero, or an undefined value.

A function can have a "hole" if it is not defined at a certain input value. For example, consider the following function:

f(x) = 1/x

This function has a hole at x=0 because it is not defined at that value. If you try to evaluate the function at x=0, you will get an error or an undefined result.

A hole is a missing or incomplete part of a function. For example, a function may have a hole at a certain point if the function is not defined at that point, or if there is a gap in the graph of the function at that point.

So, while a discontinuity is a break or gap in a function, a hole is a missing or incomplete part of the function. These two concepts are related, but they are not the same thing.

To determine whether a function has a hole, you can consider the domain of the function, which is the set of all input values for which the function is defined. If there are any values in the domain for which the function is not defined, then the function has a hole at those values.

f(x) = 1/x

Because it is not defined at x=0, this function has a gap there. You will encounter an error or an undefined outcome if you attempt to evaluate the function at x=0.

A hole is a component of a function that is absent or inadequate. For instance, if a function is not defined at a particular point or if there is a gap in the function's graph at that location, the function may have a hole there.

Therefore, a hole is a missing or unfinished portion of the function, whereas a discontinuity is a break or gap in the function. Although these two ideas are distinct from one another, they are linked.

Answer:

The total cost of the materials for the pillows is $172.37

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to calculate how many yards of each type of fabric Kelly needs to buy. She needs 2 linen pillows, which means she needs 22 = 4 yards of linen fabric.

She also needs 2 satin pillows, which means she needs 22 = 4 yards of satin fabric.

She also needs 1 faux fur pillow, which means she needs 12 = 2 yards of faux fur fabric.

The total cost of the linen fabric is 4*$13.12 = $52.48.

The total cost of the satin fabric is 4*$9.99 = $39.96.

The total cost of the faux fur fabric is 2*$14.99 = $29.98.

The total cost of the materials for the pillows is $52.48 + $39.96 + $29.98 = $122.42.

Finally, Kelly needs to buy 5 pillow inserts at $9.99 each, which means she needs to spend 5*$9.99 = $49.95 on pillow inserts.

The total cost of the materials for the pillows is $122.42 + $49.95 = $172.37.

According to the given statement the area of the cross section of the cone is 72 square units.

a solid produced by rotating one of the legs of a right triangle. A solid that is surrounded by a circle and other closed planar base and indeed the surface created by line segments connecting each point here on base's perimeter to a single vertex is known as a right circle cone; for more information, see the Density Formulas Table.

From the given information the height is 16 inches and the radius is 4.5 inches becuase the cone is sliced by a plane that passes through the center of the base, and also passes through the top vertex

So, The radius would be half the base, so the base would be 4.5 * 2 = 9 inches.

The area of the cross section of the cone is found by multiplying the base by the height, then dividing by two.

The median of 5 and 7 is 6.

The median is the middle point in a dataset—half of the data points are smaller than the median and half of the data points are larger.

A data set's median value is the point where 50% of the data points have values that are lower or equal to it, and 50% of the data points have values that are higher or equal to it.

To arrange the data points in ascending order for a small data set, count the number of data points (n).

To get the rank of the data point whose value is the median when the number of data points is unequal, multiply the total by 1 and divide the results by 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

If no base is written, the common logarithm is implied.

Answer:

the value of x will depend on the base of the logarithm.

Step-by-step explanation:

The base of a logarithm is the number that is used as a factor in the exponential equation that defines the logarithm. For example, in the logarithmic equation log10(x) = 100, the base is 10.

In the equation log(x) = 100, the base of the logarithm is not given. In order to solve for x, we need to know the base of the logarithm. Without this information, we cannot find the value of x.

For example, if the base of the logarithm is 10, we can rewrite the equation as log10(x) = 100, and then use the following property of logarithms to solve for x:

log10(x) = 100

10^(log10(x)) = 10^100

x = 10^100

On the other hand, if the base of the logarithm is 2, we can rewrite the equation as log2(x) = 100, and then use the following property of logarithms to solve for x:

log2(x) = 100

2^(log2(x)) = 2^100

x = 2^100

The slope of the line y = 3 is equal to 0.

The inclination of the supplied line with respect to the x-axis is known as the slope of any line.

The findings indicate that y = 3.

As well known,

the equation for a straight line is y = mx + c.

Where 'c' is the y-axis intercept and 'm' is the slope on the y-axis.

We obtain m = 0 and c = 3 by comparing equation (1) with the standard equation of the straight line.

The formula for a horizontal line is y = 3. Since the y coordinate has not changed, the slope is zero.

The slope of the line y = 3 is therefore equal to 0.

[tex]2s + 5t = 49.50[/tex]

[tex]2(2t) + 5t = 49.50[/tex]

[tex]4t + 5t = 49.50[/tex]

[tex]9t = 49.50[/tex]

[tex]t = 5.50[/tex]

∴ It costs Keegan $5.50 for one t-shirt.

Now, we can substitute the value of t into the same equation to solve for the value of s.

Given that [tex]t = 5.50[/tex]:

[tex]2s + 5(5.50) = 49.50[/tex]

[tex]2s + 27.5 = 49.50[/tex]

[tex]2s = 22[/tex]

[tex]s = 11[/tex]

∴ It costs Keegan $11 for one short.

The required quotient would be [tex]66\frac{8}{25}[/tex] or 66.32 which is determined by dividing 1,658 by any divisor 25.

The result of dividing an integer by any so-called quotient divisor is referred to as the quotient. The divisor appears in the dividend a certain number of times.

Arithmetic operations can also be specified by subtracting, dividing, and multiplying built-in functions. The operator that performs the arithmetic operation is called the arithmetic operator.

Multiplication operation: Multiplies values on either side of the operator

For example [tex]12*2=24[/tex]

Division operation: Divides left-hand operand by right-hand operand

For example  [tex]\frac{4}{2} =2[/tex]

Dividend is equal to 1,658

Divisor is equal to 25

Unit place value of 1658 is equal to 8.

25 is not a factor of 1658

Smallest number to 1658 divisible by 25 is 1650

Divide 1658 by 25 we get remainder

Dividend = ( Divisor × quotient) + remainder

1658 = 1650 + 8

1658 = ( 25 × 66 ) + 8

Remainder is equal to 8

Quotient is equal to 66

In decimal form

⇒ 1658 ÷ 25

Apply the Division operation, and we get

⇒ [tex]\frac{1658}{25}[/tex]

⇒ 66.32

⇒  [tex]66\frac{8}{25}[/tex]

Therefore,

The required quotient would be [tex]66\frac{8}{25}[/tex] or 66.32 which is determined by dividing 1,658 by any divisor 25.
