5x2 + x - 4 = 0

a = 5, b = 1, c = -4

The equation of the axis of the symmetry of a parabola is x = - b/2a, which also is the x-coordinate of the vertex.

x = - b/2a = - 1/2

Find the y-coordinate:

f(x) = 5x2 + x - 4

f(-1/2) = 5(-1/2)2 + (-1/2) - 4 = 5(1/4) - 1/2 - 4 = 5/4 - 1/2 - 4 = 4/2 - 4 = 2 - 4 = -2

Thus, the vertex is (-1/2, -2).

What is the derivative of x to the fourth power -3x cubed plus 5x2 divided by x squared?

If you mean: f(x) = x4 - 3x3 + 5x2 / x2 then: f(x) = x4 - 3x3 + 5 ∴ f'(x) = 4x3 - 9x2 If you mean: f(x) = (x4 - 3x3 + 5x2) / x2 then: f(x) = x2 - 3x + 5 ∴ f'(x) = 2x - 3


X4 equals 2x3 plus 1?

Not necessarily.


Is this odd even or neither 5x2 plus x4?

If the "x" in "x4" was a typing mistake, then 14 is even. If the "x" means "times" then your question makes no sense. If "x4" means "x to the 4th power" then your question can not be answered without knowing the value of x

How do you express x4 plus y4 if given x plus y equals a xy equals b?

(x + y)2 = x2 + 2xy + y2 So x2 + y2 = (x + y)2 - 2xy = a2 - 2b Then (x2 + y2)2 = x4 + 2x2y2 + y4 So x4 + y4 = (x2 + y2)2 - 2x2y2 = (a2 - 2b)2 - 2b2 = a4 - 4a2b + 4b2 - 2b2 = a4 - 4a2b + 2b2
