Answer:
A maximum of 43 students and 11 teachers can go to the trip.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since a group of teachers and students will take a bus trip to a museum, and each teacher will lead a group of no more than 4 students, and the bus can hold a maximum of 54 teachers and students, to determine the possible numbers of teachers and students who can go on the trip, the following calculation must be performed:
4 + 1 = 5
54/5 = X
10.8 = X
10 x 4 = 40
10 x 1 = 10
4 - 1 = 3
Therefore, a maximum of 43 students and 11 teachers can go to the trip.
X= 100°
180° - 57° = 123
x + 23°= 123°
x = 100°
Answer:
x ≈ {0.653059729092, 3.75570086464}
Step-by-step explanation:
A graphing calculator can tell you the roots of ...
f(x) = ln(x) -1/(x -3)
are near 0.653 and 3.756. These values are sufficiently close that Newton's method iteration can find solutions to full calculator precision in a few iterations.
In the attachment, we use g(x) as the iteration function. Since its value is shown even as its argument is being typed, we can start typing with the graphical solution value, then simply copy the digits of the iterated value as they appear. After about 6 or 8 input digits, the output stops changing, so that is our solution.
Rounded to 6 decimal places, the solutions are {0.653060, 3.755701}.
_____
A similar method can be used on a calculator such as the TI-84. One function can be defined a.s f(x) is above. Another can be defined as g(x) is in the attachment, by making use of the calculator's derivative function. After the first g(0.653) value is found, for example, remaining iterations can be g(Ans) until the result stops changing,
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
So the initial value of the business computer is $20,000. It depreciates by 15% per year. This is exponential decay. The standard function for exponential decay is:

Where <em>P </em>is the initial value, <em>r</em> is the rate of decay, and <em>t</em> is the time in years.
Since the computer decreases by 15% per year, this means that each year, the computer will be 1-15% or 85% than its previous value.
Therefore, the equation that models the value of the computer is:

It would fall between 6 and 7.
