Answer:
The idea is to transform the expression by multiplying [tex](\sqrt{x + 1} - \sqrt{x})[/tex] with its conjugate, [tex](\sqrt{x + 1} + \sqrt{x})[/tex].
Step-by-step explanation:
For any real number [tex]a[/tex] and [tex]b[/tex], [tex](a + b)\, (a - b) = a^{2} - b^{2}[/tex].
The factor [tex](\sqrt{x + 1} - \sqrt{x})[/tex] is irrational. However, when multiplied with its square root conjugate [tex](\sqrt{x + 1} + \sqrt{x})[/tex], the product would become rational:
[tex]\begin{aligned} & (\sqrt{x + 1} - \sqrt{x}) \, (\sqrt{x + 1} + \sqrt{x}) \\ &= (\sqrt{x + 1})^{2} -(\sqrt{x})^{2} \\ &= (x + 1) - (x) = 1\end{aligned}[/tex].
The idea is to multiply [tex]\sqrt{x}\, (\sqrt{x + 1} - \sqrt{x})[/tex] by [tex]\displaystyle \frac{\sqrt{x + 1} + \sqrt{x}}{\sqrt{x + 1} + \sqrt{x}}[/tex] so as to make it easier to take the limit.
Since [tex]\displaystyle \frac{\sqrt{x + 1} + \sqrt{x}}{\sqrt{x + 1} + \sqrt{x}} = 1[/tex], multiplying the expression by this fraction would not change the value of the original expression.
[tex]\begin{aligned} & \lim\limits_{x \to \infty} \sqrt{x} \, (\sqrt{x + 1} - \sqrt{x}) \\ &= \lim\limits_{x \to \infty} \left[\sqrt{x} \, (\sqrt{x + 1} - \sqrt{x})\cdot \frac{\sqrt{x + 1} + \sqrt{x}}{\sqrt{x + 1} + \sqrt{x}}\right] \\ &= \lim\limits_{x \to \infty} \frac{\sqrt{x}\, ((x + 1) - x)}{\sqrt{x + 1} + \sqrt{x}} \\ &= \lim\limits_{x \to \infty} \frac{\sqrt{x}}{\sqrt{x + 1}+ \sqrt{x}}\end{aligned}[/tex].
The order of [tex]x[/tex] in both the numerator and the denominator are now both [tex](1/2)[/tex]. Hence, dividing both the numerator and the denominator by [tex]x^{(1/2)}[/tex] (same as [tex]\sqrt{x}[/tex]) would ensure that all but the constant terms would approach [tex]0[/tex] under this limit:
[tex]\begin{aligned} & \lim\limits_{x \to \infty} \sqrt{x} \, (\sqrt{x + 1} - \sqrt{x}) \\ &= \cdots\\ &= \lim\limits_{x \to \infty} \frac{\sqrt{x}}{\sqrt{x + 1}+ \sqrt{x}} \\ &= \lim\limits_{x \to \infty} \frac{\sqrt{x} / \sqrt{x}}{(\sqrt{x + 1} / \sqrt{x}) + (\sqrt{x} / \sqrt{x})} \\ &= \lim\limits_{x \to \infty}\frac{1}{\sqrt{(x / x) + (1 / x)} + 1} \\ &= \lim\limits_{x \to \infty} \frac{1}{\sqrt{1 + (1/x)} + 1}\end{aligned}[/tex].
By continuity:
[tex]\begin{aligned} & \lim\limits_{x \to \infty} \sqrt{x} \, (\sqrt{x + 1} - \sqrt{x}) \\ &= \cdots\\ &= \lim\limits_{x \to \infty} \frac{\sqrt{x}}{\sqrt{x + 1}+ \sqrt{x}} \\ &= \cdots \\ &= \lim\limits_{x \to \infty} \frac{1}{\sqrt{1 + (1/x)} + 1} \\ &= \frac{1}{\sqrt{1 + \lim\limits_{x \to \infty}(1/x)} + 1} \\ &= \frac{1}{1 + 1} \\ &= \frac{1}{2}\end{aligned}[/tex].
Answer:
Hello,

If a and b are positive numbers, find the maximum value of f(x) = x^a(2 − x)^b on the interval 0 ≤ x ≤ 2.
Answers
Answer:
The maximum value of f(x) occurs at:
[tex]\displaystyle x = \frac{2a}{a+b}[/tex]
And is given by:
[tex]\displaystyle f_{\text{max}}(x) = \left(\frac{2a}{a+b}\right)^a\left(\frac{2b}{a+b}\right)^b[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the function:
[tex]\displaystyle f(x) = x^a (2-x)^b \text{ where } a, b >0[/tex]
And we want to find the maximum value of f(x) on the interval [0, 2].
First, let's evaluate the endpoints of the interval:
[tex]\displaystyle f(0) = (0)^a(2-(0))^b = 0[/tex]
And:
[tex]\displaystyle f(2) = (2)^a(2-(2))^b = 0[/tex]
Recall that extrema occurs at a function's critical points. The critical points of a function at the points where its derivative is either zero or undefined. Thus, find the derivative of the function:
[tex]\displaystyle f'(x) = \frac{d}{dx} \left[ x^a\left(2-x\right)^b\right][/tex]
By the Product Rule:
[tex]\displaystyle \begin{aligned} f'(x) &= \frac{d}{dx}\left[x^a\right] (2-x)^b + x^a\frac{d}{dx}\left[(2-x)^b\right]\\ \\ &=\left(ax^{a-1}\right)\left(2-x\right)^b + x^a\left(b(2-x)^{b-1}\cdot -1\right) \\ \\ &= x^a\left(2-x\right)^b \left[\frac{a}{x} - \frac{b}{2-x}\right] \end{aligned}[/tex]
Set the derivative equal to zero and solve for x:
[tex]\displaystyle 0= x^a\left(2-x\right)^b \left[\frac{a}{x} - \frac{b}{2-x}\right][/tex]
By the Zero Product Property:
[tex]\displaystyle x^a (2-x)^b = 0\text{ or } \frac{a}{x} - \frac{b}{2-x} = 0[/tex]
The solutions to the first equation are x = 0 and x = 2.
First, for the second equation, note that it is undefined when x = 0 and x = 2.
To solve for x, we can multiply both sides by the denominators.
[tex]\displaystyle\left( \frac{a}{x} - \frac{b}{2-x} \right)\left((x(2-x)\right) = 0(x(2-x))[/tex]
Simplify:
[tex]\displaystyle a(2-x) - b(x) = 0[/tex]
And solve for x:
[tex]\displaystyle \begin{aligned} 2a-ax-bx &= 0 \\ 2a &= ax+bx \\ 2a&= x(a+b) \\ \frac{2a}{a+b} &= x \end{aligned}[/tex]
So, our critical points are:
[tex]\displaystyle x = 0 , 2 , \text{ and } \frac{2a}{a+b}[/tex]
We already know that f(0) = f(2) = 0.
For the third point, we can see that:
[tex]\displaystyle f\left(\frac{2a}{a+b}\right) = \left(\frac{2a}{a+b}\right)^a\left(2- \frac{2a}{a+b}\right)^b[/tex]
This can be simplified to:
[tex]\displaystyle f\left(\frac{2a}{a+b}\right) = \left(\frac{2a}{a+b}\right)^a\left(\frac{2b}{a+b}\right)^b[/tex]
Since a and b > 0, both factors must be positive. Thus, f(2a / (a + b)) > 0. So, this must be the maximum value.
To confirm that this is indeed a maximum, we can select values to test. Let a = 2 and b = 3. Then:
[tex]\displaystyle f'(x) = x^2(2-x)^3\left(\frac{2}{x} - \frac{3}{2-x}\right)[/tex]
The critical point will be at:
[tex]\displaystyle x= \frac{2(2)}{(2)+(3)} = \frac{4}{5}=0.8[/tex]
Testing x = 0.5 and x = 1 yields that:
[tex]\displaystyle f'(0.5) >0\text{ and } f'(1) <0[/tex]
Since the derivative is positive and then negative, we can conclude that the point is indeed a maximum.
Therefore, the maximum value of f(x) occurs at:
[tex]\displaystyle x = \frac{2a}{a+b}[/tex]
And is given by:
[tex]\displaystyle f_{\text{max}}(x) = \left(\frac{2a}{a+b}\right)^a\left(\frac{2b}{a+b}\right)^b[/tex]

We are given a jar full of thousands of red and blue marbles. We want to estimate the unknown proportion pof red marbles in the jar. To do this, we randomly draw 100 marbles and count reds: it so happens we drew 45 reds. Enter values in decimal form, rounded to four decimal places (or more).
We estimate the proportion of reds in the jar to be
Attach a give-or-take value to this estimate. (That is, estimate the standard error.)

Set up an approximate 96% confidence interval for the unknown proportion of reds in the jar.
Answers
Answer:
(0.3478, 0.5522)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Total number of red marbles, x = 45
Total number of marbles, n = 100
Phat = x / n = 45 / 100 = 0.45
The confidence interval, C.I is given by :
Phat ± Zcritical * standard error
Phat ± Zcritical * √Phat(1 - Phat) / n
Zcritical at 96% = 2.0537
The standard error = √Phat(1 - Phat) / n
S.E = √(0.45 * 0.55) / 100 = 0.0497493
C.I = 0.45 ± (2.0537 * 0.0497493)
C.I = 0.45 ± 0.10217013741
C. I = (0.3478, 0.5522)

Step-by-step explanation:
Use the mean formula: mean = sum of elements / number of elements
Plug in the mean and number of elements, then solve for the sum of the numbers:
mean = sum of elements / number of elements
19 = sum of elements / 5
95 = sum of elements
So, the sum of the numbers is 95.
How do you expand ln(1/49^k)
Answers
Answer:
There are a few rules that we can use here:
ln(a^x) = x*ln(a)
ln(a) - ln(b) = ln(a/b)
ln(1) = 0
So here we want to expand:
ln(1/49^k)
First we can use the second property to get:
ln(1/49^k) = ln(1) - ln(49^k)
using the third property, we have:
ln(1/49^k) = ln(1) - ln(49^k) = 0 - ln(49^k)
ln(1/49^k) = - ln(49^k)
Now we can use the first property to get:
ln(1/49^k) = - k*ln(49)
Now we can use the fact that:
49 = 7*7 = 7^2
then:
- k*ln(49) = -k*ln(7^2) = -2*k*ln(7)
So we have:
ln(1/49^k) = (-2*ln(7))*k
We can expand it anymore because this is a real number "(-2*ln(7))" times a variable k.

[tex]c = 1775[/tex] --- movement in west direction from (b)

Find x
To do this, we have:
[tex]\triangle ADE \sim \triangle ACB[/tex] --- similar triangles
So, we have the following equivalent ratios
[tex]AE:DE = AB:CB[/tex]
Where:
[tex]AE = 20\\ DE = x/2 \\ AB = 20 + x + 14 \\ CB = 1775[/tex]
Substitute these in the above equation
[tex]20:x/2 = 20 + x + 14: 1775[/tex]
[tex]20:x/2 = x + 34: 1775[/tex]
Express as fraction
[tex]\frac{20}{x/2} = \frac{x + 34}{1775}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{40}{x} = \frac{x + 34}{1775}[/tex]
Cross multiply
[tex]x *(x + 34) = 1775 * 40[/tex]
Open bracket
[tex]x^2 + 34x = 71000[/tex]

Factorize
[tex]x(x + 284) -250(x + 284)= 0[/tex]
Factor out x + 284
[tex](x - 250)(x + 284)= 0[/tex]
Split
[tex]x - 250 = 0 \ or\ x + 284= 0[/tex]
Solve for x
[tex]x = 250 \ or\ x =- 284[/tex]
x can't be negative;
So:
[tex]x = 250[/tex]

Slope = Rise / Run = Δy / Δx = (y₂ - y₁) / (x₂ - x₁)
Solve:
STEP ONE: Select two points on the line that intersects with the grids
A (0, 5)
B (1, 25)
STEP TWO: Apply the formula
Slope = (y₂ - y₁) / (x₂ - x₁)
Slope = (25 - 5) / (1 - 0)
Slope = 20 / 1
Slope = 20

Answer:
20
Step-by-step explanation:
We can find the slope of the line by using the slope formula
Slope = (y2 - y1)/(x2-x1)
Where the x and y values are derived from points chosen on the line
The points chosen may vary but I have chosen (1,25) and (2,45)
Now that we have chosen the points let's define our variables ( our variables are x1 x2 y1 and y2 )
x1 is the x value of the first point chosen.The x value of the first point chosen is 1 so x1 = 1
x2 is the x value of the second point chosen. The x value of the second point chosen is 2 so x2 = 2
y1 is the y value of the second point chosen. The y value of the first point chosen is 25 so y1 = 25
y2 is the y value of the second point chosen. The y value of the second point chosen is 45 so y2 = 45
Now to find the slope we simply plug in the values of the variables into the formula
Formula: (y2 - y1)/(x2-x1)
Variables: x1 = 1, x2 = 2, y1 = 25, y2 = 45
Plug in values
(45-25)/(2-1)
Subtract top numbers
(20)/(2-1)
Subtract bottom numbers
20/1
Simplify
The slope is 20
