The Approximate the solution to the equation using three iterations of successive approximation is option b: 27/8.

<h3>What is the iterations about?</h3>

In the equation given:

Note that:

x²-3x+2 = square root √x-2 + 2

Therefore:

x⁴-6x³+9x²= square root x-2

x² = 3.375

Convert 3.35 into fractions and will get 27/8. So, The Approximate the solution to the equation using three iterations of successive approximation is option b: 27/8.

In general 2^n is the number of pieces of information n bits can store.

(a) Antonio can use the formula 2^n-1 to indicate the maximum size of numbers an n-bit word can store.
(b) for a 16-bit system, the maximum number of keys Millie can collect is 2^(16)-1 = 65536-1=65535
(c) For a 14 byte program, there are 14*8=112 bits.

Can someone pls help??

Answer:

a. The y coordinates for A are either 10 or -14

b. The y coordinates for A are either -11 or 7

Step-by-step explanation:

distance = sqrt ((x2-x1)^2+(y2-y1)^2)

We know Point B and the x coordinate of point A as well as the distance

15 = sqrt ((-4-5)^2+(-2-y1)^2)

15 = sqrt ((-9)^2+(-2-y1)^2)

15 = sqrt (81+(-2-y1)^2)

Square each side

15^2 =sqrt (81+(-2-y1)^2)^2

225 = 81+(-2-y1)^2

Subtract 81 from each side

225-81 = 81-81 +(-2-y1)^2

144 = (-2-y1)^2

Take the square root of each side

±sqrt 144 = sqrt(-2-y1)^2

±12 = (-2-y1)

Add 2 to each side

2±12 = 2-2-y1

2±12 = -y1

14 = -y1 or -10 = -y1

Multiply by -1

-14 = y1 or 10 = y1

The y coordinates for A are either 10 or -14

Now move B to -7,-2

15 = sqrt ((-7-5)^2+(-2-y1)^2)

15 = sqrt ((-12)^2+(-2-y1)^2)

15 = sqrt (144+(-2-y1)^2)

Square each side

15^2 =sqrt (144+(-2-y1)^2)^2

225 = 144+(-2-y1)^2

Subtract 144 from each side

225-144 = 144-144 +(-2-y1)^2

81 = (-2-y1)^2

Take the square root of each side

±sqrt 81 = sqrt(-2-y1)^2

±9 = (-2-y1)

Add 2 to each side

2±9 = 2-2-y1

2±9 = -y1

11 = -y1 or -7 = -y1

Multiply by -1

-11 = y1 or 7 = y1

The y coordinates for A are either -11 or 7

The wildflowers at a national park have been decreasing in numbers. There were 1200 wildflowers in the first year that the park

bonufazy [111]

Year New flowers

1 1200

2 300

3 75

There were 1200 wildflowers in the first year that the park started tracking them. Since then, there have been one fourth as many new flowers each year

Initially there are 1200 flowers and start decreasing by $\frac{1}{4}$

So first term is 1200 and common ratio is $\frac{1}{4}$ .

Its a geometric sequence so summation becomes

i =1∑ ∞ 1200( $\frac{1}{4})^{i-1}$

Now we find the sum

We use sum formula

$Sum = \frac{a}{1-r}$

Where a is the first term , a= 1200

r is the common ratio , r= 1/4

$Sum = \frac{1200}{1-(\frac{1}{4})}$

$Sum = \frac{1200}{\frac{3}{4}}$

Sum = 1600 wildflowers

I hope you guys can see the question, if not just let me know

QveST [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

When translating and reflecting figures, the shape remains the same. So, the side of 2x-4 is corresponding to the side of 8 and they are equal to each other.

To solve, set up an equation like this to find x:

2x-4=8

Then, add 4 to both sides of the equation:

2x=12

The goal is to get x by itself and in order to do that, divide both sides by 2:

x=6

The value of x is 6. I hope this helps! ☺
