1300.00 rent

50.00 phone

500.00 groceries (115 x 4 weeks = 460.)

------------

1850.00 (I'd say about 2000.00)

Answer: $1764.88 is a good estimate of his monthly expenses.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Rent charges = $1258

Phone charges = $46.88

Groceries per week = $115

Number of weeks in a month = 4

So, Total groceries charges in a month is given by

$115\times 4\\\\=\$460$

So, total good estimate of monthly expenses would be

$\$1258+\$46.88+\$460\\\\=\$1764.88$

Hence, $1764.88 is a good estimate of his monthly expenses.

The point P(7, −2) lies on the curve y = 2/(6 − x). (a) If Q is the point (x, 2/(6 − x)), use your calculator to find the slope

NARA [144]

Answer:

a) (i) $m = 2.22$ , (ii) $m = 2$ , (iii) $m = 2$ , (iv) $m = 2$ , (v) $m = 1.82$ , (vi) $m = 2$ , (vii) $m = 2$ , (viii) $m = 2$ ; b) $m \approx 2$ ; c) The equation of the tangent line to curve at P (7, -2) is $y = 2\cdot x + 12$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The slope of the secant line PQ is represented by the following definition of slope:

$m = \frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x} = \frac{y_{Q}-y_{P}}{x_{Q}-x_{P}}$

(i) $x_{Q} = 6.9$ :

$y_{Q} =\frac{2}{6-6.9}$

$y_{Q} = -2.222$

$m = \frac{-2.222 + 2}{6.9-7}$

$m = 2.22$

(ii) $x_{Q} = 6.99$

$y_{Q} =\frac{2}{6-6.99}$

$y_{Q} = -2.020$

$m = \frac{-2.020 + 2}{6.99-7}$

$m = 2$

(iii) $x_{Q} = 6.999$

$y_{Q} =\frac{2}{6-6.999}$

$y_{Q} = -2.002$

$m = \frac{-2.002 + 2}{6.999-7}$

$m = 2$

(iv) $x_{Q} = 6.9999$

$y_{Q} =\frac{2}{6-6.9999}$

$y_{Q} = -2.0002$

$m = \frac{-2.0002 + 2}{6.9999-7}$

$m = 2$

(v) $x_{Q} = 7.1$

$y_{Q} =\frac{2}{6-7.1}$

$y_{Q} = -1.818$

$m = \frac{-1.818 + 2}{7.1-7}$

$m = 1.82$

(vi) $x_{Q} = 7.01$

$y_{Q} =\frac{2}{6-7.01}$

$y_{Q} = -1.980$

$m = \frac{-1.980 + 2}{7.01-7}$

$m = 2$

(vii) $x_{Q} = 7.001$

$y_{Q} =\frac{2}{6-7.001}$

$y_{Q} = -1.998$

$m = \frac{-1.998 + 2}{7.001-7}$

$m = 2$

(viii) $x_{Q} = 7.0001$

$y_{Q} =\frac{2}{6-7.0001}$

$y_{Q} = -1.9998$

$m = \frac{-1.9998 + 2}{7.0001-7}$

$m = 2$

b) The slope at P (7,-2) can be estimated by using the following average:

$m \approx \frac{f(6.9999)+f(7.0001)}{2}$

$m \approx \frac{2+2}{2}$

$m \approx 2$

The slope of the tangent line to the curve at P(7, -2) is 2.

c) The equation of the tangent line is a first-order polynomial with the following characteristics:

$y = m\cdot x + b$

Where:

$x$ - Independent variable.

$y$ - Depedent variable.

$m$ - Slope.

$b$ - x-Intercept.

The slope was found in point (b) (m = 2). Besides, the point of tangency (7,-2) is known and value of x-Intercept can be obtained after clearing the respective variable:

$-2 = 2 \cdot 7 + b$

$b = -2 + 14$

$b = 12$

The equation of the tangent line to curve at P (7, -2) is $y = 2\cdot x + 12$ .

I need help with the first questions!!

solniwko [45]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

Difference between (x) & (x')

P - P' = (2 - (-6) , 2 - 2) = (-8,0)

Q - Q' = (5 - (-3), 2 - 2) = (-8,0)

etc...

Always get (-8,0) hence -8 in x-direction

Help Please!<br><br> Solve for d.<br> 5+d>5−d<br><br> Solve for p.<br> 2p+3>2(p−3)

Keith_Richards [23]

<span>Solve for d.
5+d>5−d Subtract 5 from both sides of this inequality:

d>d There is no value for d that satisfies this inequality.
No value can be greater than itself.

</span><span>Solve for p.
2p+3>2(p−3) Multiply this out: 2p+3>2p-6
</span><span> Subtr 3 from both sides: 2p> 2p-9

This is equivalent to 2p+9>2p.
We could subtr. 2p from both sides: 0>-9.

0> -9 is always true. Thus, the given inequality has infinitely many solutions.
