What function family has an increasing interval and a decreasing interval?
There are many families of functions or function types that have both increasing and decreasing intervals. One example is the parabolic functions (and functions of even powers), such as f(x)=x^2 or f(x)=x^4. Namely, f(x) = x^n, where n is an element of even natural numbers. If we let f(x) = x^2, then f'(x)=2x, which is < 0 (i.e. f(x) is decreasing) when x<0, and f'(x) > 0 (i.e. f(x) is increasing), when x > 0. Another example are trigonometric functions, such as f(x) = sin(x). Finding the derivative (i.e. f'(x) = cos(x)) and critical points will show this.
Is x a function of y or is y a function of x?
Either - or both - can be true.
What are similarities between linear and exponential functions?
neither linear nor exponential functions have stationary points, meaning their gradients are either always +ve or -ve
Can the initial value of a function be zero?
Yes. In general, both the input and the output of a function can be zero.
The fractors of 40?
A fractor is a circuit component that has both the function of resistor and capacitor.
Is the coral reef in the gulf of Mexico increasing or decreasing?
both :D
What are the effects of temperature and volume of gas samples at constant pressure?
If the volume is constant, the density does not change with temperature. With increasing temperature there is still the same number of molecules confined to the same volume of space, so no difference in density.
What will increase cumulative borrowing in the cash budget a. Decreasing the average collection period b. Increasing purchases c. Decreasing depreciation expense d. Both a an?
wet
How can you increase a current in a wire?
Ohm's law. Current is directly proportional to the applied emf and inversely proportional to the resistance in the circuit.
How do you discuss trends that occur by looking at a graph?
When both axis' are increasing it is a positive correlation. When both are decreasing it is a negative correlation. When the dots are all over the place then there is no correlation.
What is the difference between thixotropic materials and pseudoplastic fluids?
While both adjectives describe a fluid with a decreasing viscosity, thixotropic materials exhibit this change as a result of time (under constant shear) while pseudoplastic materials exhibit this change as a result of increasing the rate of shear stress.

Is Y equals 0 an even or odd function?
f(x) = 0 is a constant function. This particular constant function is both even and odd. Requirements for an even function: f(x) = f(-x) Geometrically, the graph of an even function is symmetric with respect to the y-axis The graph of a constant function is a horizontal line and will be symmetric with respect to the y-axis. y=0 or f(x)=0 is a constant function which is symmetric with respect to the y-axis. Requirements for an odd function: -f(x) = f(-x) Geometrically, it is symmetric about the origin. While the constant function f(x)=0 is symmetric about the origin, constant function such as y=1 is not. and if we look at -f(x)=f(-x) for 1, we have -f(x)=-1 but f(-1)=1 since it is a constant function so y=1 is a constant function but not odd. So f(x)=c is odd if and only iff c=0 f(x)=0 is the only function which is both even and odd.
What effect does increasing the retail and wholesale margins have on the manufacturer's selling price?
It may have no effect if the retail price is raised. You can increase the retail and wholesale price margins by increasing the retail price, decreasing the manufacturers selling price or a combination of both.
What numbers would you have to have for mass and force to keep the greatest acceleration?
To maintain acceleration, both mass and force must remain unchanged. Decreasing mass and/or increasing force will increase acceleration.
What are the factors that influence the speed of the direct-current shunt motor with increasing load?
.The magnitude of the voltage and current of both the armature and shunt field coil. To decrease the speed when the load is increasing then increase the shunt field current while decreasing the armature voltage or current. To increase the speed while the load is increasing then increase the armature current while decreasing the shunt field current. The decreasing and increasing of these currents and voltages can be done by connecting a variable resistor in series or parallel with each of the armature and/or shunt field coil.
How do you change solid water to liquid and liquid water to gas?
You can change both of these by increasing or decreasing the speed of the molecules (kinetic energy), or by increasing or decreasing the heat applied (thermal energy). If you want to melt ice, you can increase the kinetic energy by increasing the thermal energy. The opposite occurs if you want to freeze water.
