A differentiable function f has the property that f(5)=3 and fprime(5)=4. What is the estimate for f(4.8) using the local linear

approximation for f at x=5?

The linear approximation means that you assume the function is linear. So, just do :
f(5) + f'(5) (x-5)

This works out, in this specific case
3 + 4 (- 0.2)

Hope this helps

The graph of the equation below is a circle. What is the length of the radius of the circle? (x - 4)^2 + (y + 12)^2 = 17^2
djverab [1.8K]
The correct answer is:  [D]:  "17" .
______________________________________________________
The radius is:  " 17" .
______________________________________________________
Note:
______________________________________________________
The formula/equation for the graph of a circle is:
______________________________________________________
   (x − h)²  +<span> </span> (y − k)² =  r²  ;

in which:  

          " (h, k) " ; are the coordinate of the point of the center of the circle;

           "r" is the length of the "radius" ; for which we want to determine;
_______________________________________________________
We are given the following equation of the graph of a particular circle:
_______________________________________________________

          →  (x − 4)²  +  (y + 12)² =  17² ;

which is in the correct form:

→  " (x − h)²  +  (y − k)² =  r²  " ;

 in which:  " h = 4 " ;

                  " k = -12" ;

                   "r = 17 " ;  which is the "radius" ; which is our answer.

          →  { Note that: "k = NEGATIVE  12" } ;

→  Since the equation <u>for this particular circle</u> contains the expression:             _________________________________________________________    
                      →     "...(y + k)² ..." ;  
         
[as opposed to the standard form:  "...(y − k)² ..." ] ; 
_________________________________________________________
→  And since the coordinates of the center of a circle are represented by:
            " (h, k) " ;  
 
→  which are:  " (4, -12) " ;  (<u>for this particular circle</u>) ; 
_________________________________________________________
→  And since:  " k = -12 " ;  (<u>for this particular circle</u>) ;
_________________________________________________________
then: 

 " [y − k ] ²  =  [ y − (k) ] ²  =  " [ y − (-12) ] ² " ;
                                    
                                         =  " ( y + 12)² "  ;
                                    
{NOTE:  Since:  "subtracting a negative" is the same as "adding a positive" ;

           →   So;  " [ y − (-12 ] " = " [ y + (⁺ 12) ] " = " (y + 12) "
___________________________________________________  
Note:  The above explanation is relevant to confirm that the equation is, in fact, in "proper form"; to ensure that the:  radius, "r" ;  is:  "17" .
___________________________________________________
           →    Since:  "r  =  17 " ;  

           →  The radius is:  " 17 " ;

          which is:  Answer choice:  [D]:  "17" .

When a number is a multiple of 6, what are the possible values for the ones digits?
Liula [17]
I would do this by first listing the multiples of 6 until I start to see a pattern with the one's digit.
6x0=0
6x1=6
6x2=12
6x3=18
6x4=24
6x5=30
6x6=36
6x7=42
6x8=48
...
The digits in bold are the one's digits so those are the only ones we really care about.  If you list just them it looks like: 0,6,2,8,4,0,6,2,8
Notice how the first set of 5 numbers seems as though it repeats in the 6th, 7th, and 8th numbers.  This probably means the pattern continues infinitely so the first 5 numbers are all the one's digits that can come from multiples of 6.  Thus your answer is: 0,6,2,8,or 4

P-24=15

because if argentina has 15 more than south africa then you need to subtract 24-15=p which is pretty much the same things as p-24=15

and if you need to know how many provinces south africa has then 9 provinces should be your answer
