The <em>approximate</em> solution of the equation shown in the picture is x ≈ 39 / 8 (Right choice: B).

<h3>How to find an approximate solution of a one-variable equation</h3>

The solution of the equation is between x = 4 and x = 5. Now we begin by evaluating each side of the expression (f(x) = x² - 5 · x + 4, g(x) = 2 / (x - 1)) at the average of x = 4 and x = 5.

x = (4 + 5) / 2

x = 4.5

f(4.5) = 4.5² - 5 · 4.5 + 1

f(4.5) = - 5 / 4

g(4.5) = 2 / (4.5 - 1)

g(4.5) = 4 / 7

The solution of the equation is between x = 4.5 and x = 5, then we evaluate at the average:

x = (4.5 + 5) / 2

x = 4.75

f(4.75) = 4.75² - 5 · 4.75 + 1

f(4.75) = - 3 / 16

g(4.75) = 2 / (4.75 - 1)

g(4.75) = 8 / 15

The solution of the equation is between x = 4.75 and x = 5, then we evaluate at the average:

x = (4.75 + 5) / 2

x = 4.875

f(4.875) = 4.875² - 5 · 4.875 + 1

f(4.875) = 25 / 64

g(4.875) = 2 / (4.875 - 1)

g(4.875) = 16 / 31

The <em>approximate</em> solution of the equation shown in the picture is x ≈ 39 / 8 (Right choice: B).

Select all of the transformations that could change the location of the asymptotes of a cosecant of secant function.
mars1129 [50]

We have to select all of the transformations that could change the location of the asymptotes of a cosecant of secant function.

So given function can be written as:

y=csc( sec(x))

First we need to determine the location of asymptote which is basically a line that seems to be touching the graph of function at infinity.

From attached graph we see that Asymptotes (Green lines) are vertical.

So Vertical shift or vertical stretch will not affect the location of asymptote because moving up or down the vertical line will not change the position of any vertical line.

only Left or right side movement will change the position of vertical asymptote. Which is possible in Phase shift and period change.

Hence Phase shift and Period change are the correct choices.

Write the conjugate of the following complex<br> number:<br> -3 + 2i
katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

-3 - 2i

Step-by-step explanation:

conjugate of a+bi is a-bi, so conjugate of -3 + 2i = -3 - 2i

Use rounding (to the nearest 10) to estimate the product of 3217 X 44.
Lorico [155]
So using whole number rounding I believe the answer you should get would be 141,550 as 3217 x 44 is equals to 141,548 so the answer may be 141,550 since 50 is the closest ten number to 48, with a distance of only 2 numbers.
