The function f(x) = g(x), where f(x) = 2x – 5 and g(x) = x2 – 6.

Answer:

x=2.4

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Solving Equations Using Successive Approximations</u>

We need to find the solution to the equation

f(x)=g(x)

where

f(x)=2x-5

g(x)=x^2-6

The approximation has been already started and reached a state for x=2.5 where

f(2.5)=0

g(2.5)=2.5^2-6=0.25

The difference between the results is 0.25, we need further steps to reach a good solution (to the nearest tenth)

Let's test for x=2.4

f(2.4)=-0.2

g(2.4)=2.4^2-6=-0.24

The new difference is -0.2+0.24=0.04

It's accurate enough, thus the solution is

\boxed{x=2.4}

A bowl has only red, green, and purple grapes. The probability of picking a red grape out of the bowl, eating it, and then picki
Xelga [282]

The probability of picking a green grape is 1/2.

<h3>What is probability?</h3>

Probability is the occurence of likely events. It is the area of mathematics that deals with numerical estimates of the likelihood that an event will occur or that a statement is true. An event's probability is a number between 0 and 1.

Since the probability of picking a red grape out of the bowl, eating it, and then picking a green grape out of the bowl is 1/8 and probability of picking just a red grape is 1/4 .

The probability of green grape will be the division. This will be:

= P(R and G) / P(R)

= 1/8 ÷ 1/4

= 1/8 × 4/1

= 1/2

The probability is 1/2.

The sum of the measures of angle x and y is 90. If the measures of angle x is 30 less than twice the measures of angle y what is
svp [43]
First set up your two equations:

x + y = 90

x = 2y - 30

Then substitute what x equals in the second equation into the first equation:

(2y -30) + y = 90

Now solve for y:

3y -30 = 90
3y = 120
y = 40

Then use y = 40 and substitute the value for y into one of your original equations and solve for x.  I'll choose the first one, but either one will work.

x+ 40 = 90
x = 50

So your solution is x = 50 and y = 40

Hi can anyone help me with this ..​
aleksley [76]

Answer:

n = π/6, π/4, 3π/4, 5π/6

Step-by-step explanation:

sin(3n) − sin n = cos(2n)

Use double and triple angle formulas:

(3 sin n − 4 sin³ n) − sin n = 1 − 2 sin² n

2 sin n − 4 sin³ n = 1 − 2 sin² n

4 sin³ n − 2 sin² n − 2 sin n + 1 = 0

Factor by grouping:

2 sin² n (2 sin n − 1) − (2 sin n − 1) = 0

(2 sin² n − 1) (2 sin n − 1) = 0

Solve:

2 sin² n − 1 = 0

2 sin² n = 1

sin² n = 1/2

sin n = √2/2

n = π/4, 3π/4

2 sin n − 1 = 0

2 sin n = 1

sin n = 1/2

n = π/6, 5π/6
