The approximate solution to the equation \dfrac{4}{x - 5} = \sqrt{x + 3} +2 found using

the Newton-Raphson method is option B.

B. 5.81

<h3>How can the Newton-Raphson method be used?</h3>

The given function is presented as follows;

\dfrac{4}{x - 5} = \mathbf{ \sqrt{x + 3} +2}

Which gives;

\dfrac{4}{x - 5} -2= \sqrt{x + 3}

<em />\left(\dfrac{14-2\cdot x}{x-5} \right)^2 = \sqrt{x+3} ^2 = x+3

\mathbf{\dfrac{4\cdot x^2 - 56 \cdot x + 196}{x^2-10\cdot x + 25}} = x + 3

Therefore;

\mathbf{\dfrac{4\cdot x^2 - 56 \cdot x + 196}{x^2-10\cdot x + 25} - (x + 3)} = 0

\dfrac{- x^3 + 11 \cdot x^2 - 51 \cdot x + 121}{x^2-10\cdot x + 25}  = 0

x³ - 11·x² + 51·x - 121 = 0

Using the Newton Raphson method, with x₀ = 6, we have;

x_1 = x_0- \dfrac{x^3 - 11 \cdot x^2 + 51 \cdot x - 121}{3 \cdot x^2 - 22 \cdot x + 51}

Which gives;

x_1 = 6- \dfrac{6^3 - 11 \times 6^2 + 51 \times 6 - 121}{3 \times 6^2 - 22 \times 6 + 51} \approx \mathbf{ 5.81}

The correct option is <u>B. 5.81</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

(f+g)(1) = f(1) +g(1) = -1 + 2 = 1

__

The pair (1, -1) in the definition of f tells you f(1) = -1.

The pair (1, 2) in the definition of g tells you g(1) = 2.

Which of the following correlation coefficients represents the strongest
erik [133]

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf -0.92}}

Step-by-step explanation:

A correlation coefficient is a number ranging from -1 and 1 that measures the strength and direction of a linear relationship.

  • If it is a negative number, the linear relationship is also negative. If it's positive, the relationship is positive.
  • The closer it is to -1 or 1, the stronger the relationship.

Since the question only asks for the strongest relationship and does not ask for the direction (positive/negative), we can simply choose the number closest to -1/1. Therefore, the answer is -0.92.
