Answer:
x = -2
Step-by-step explanation:
From x = -2 to x = 5, f' is negative. That means f is decreasing.
From x = 5 to x = 6, f' is positive. That means f is increasing.
The negative area (between x = -2 and x = 5) is larger than the positive area area (between x = 5 and x = 6). That means f decreases more than it increases.
So f is an absolute maximum at x = -2.
1) The outcomes for rolling two dice, the sample space, is as follows:
(1, 1), (1, 2), (1, 3), (1, 4), (1, 5), (1, 6)
(2, 1), (2, 2), (2, 3), (2, 4), (2, 5), (2, 6)
(3, 1), (3, 2), (3, 3), (3, 4), (3, 5), (3, 6)
(4, 1), (4, 2), (4, 3), (4, 4), (4, 5), (4, 6)
(5, 1), (5, 2), (5, 3), (5, 4), (5, 5), (5, 6)
(6, 1), (6, 2), (6, 3), (6, 4), (6, 5), (6, 6)
There are 36 outcomes in the sample space.
2) The ways to roll an odd sum when rolling two dice are:
(1, 2), (1, 4), (1, 6), (2, 1), (2, 3), (2, 5), (3, 2), (3, 4), (3, 6), (4, 1), (4, 3), (4, 5), (5, 2), (5, 4), (5, 6), (6, 1), (6, 3), (6, 5). There are 18 outcomes in this event.
3) The probability of rolling an odd sum is 18/36 = 1/2 = 0.5
Assuming that the garden is rectangular in shape, the area of a rectangle is given by length x width.
11 is a prime with factors 1 and 11.
Therefore, if the area of a (rectangular) garden is 11 square feet, then the possible dimension of the garden is 1 feet by 11 feet.
