Consider the function on the interval (0, 2π). f(x) = sin x + cos x (a) find the open intervals on which the function is increasing or decreasing. (enter your answers using interval notation.)

Increasing in x∈(0,π/4)∪(5π/4,2π) decreasing in(π/4,5π/4)

Step-by-step explanation:

given f(x) = sin(x) + cos(x)

f(x) can be rewritten as

Using these result in equation a we get

f(x) =

Now we know that for derivative with respect to dependent variable is positive for an increasing function

Differentiating b on both sides with respect to x we get

f '(x) =

where x∈(0,2π)

we know that cox(x) > 0 for x∈[0,π/2]∪[3π/2,2π]

Thus for cos(π/4+x)>0 we should have

1) π/4 + x < π/2  => x<π/4  => x∈[0,π/4]

2) π/4 + x > 3π/2  => x > 5π/4  => x∈[5π/4,2π]

from conditions 1 and 2 we have  x∈(0,π/4)∪(5π/4,2π)

Thus the function is decreasing in x∈(π/4,5π/4)

12 do both hurdles and long jump

Step-by-step explanation:

3/8 of the team does hurdles, so that number is 3/8·40 = 15.

Of those 15, 4/5 do long jump, so there are ...

4/5·15 = 12 . . . hurdlers who do long jump
