Answer:
-1.92 cm³
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for the volume of a cube in terms of side length is ...
V = s³
Then the first-order approximation of volume for a small change ∆s in side length is ...
V(s +∆s) ≈ V(s) + V'(s)·∆s
and the change in volume is ...
∆V ≈ V(s +∆s) -V(s) = V'(s)·∆s
The derivative V'(s) is ...
V'(s) = 3s²
so the change in volume for s = 8 cm and ∆s = -0.01 cm is ...
∆V ≈ 3s²·∆s = 3(8 cm)²(-0.01 cm) = -1.92 cm³
Answer:
(1/4)x=2 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
It is 2.5 gal. of water and 0.25 gal. of water per plant.
It could also be x=(1/4)/(2 1/2)
Ok so we can see for every 2 cups of medium coffee, the balance goes down 5.30$. So that means that for every coffee, her balance goes down 2.65$. Solving for the x-intercept means how many medium coffees can I get until my balance is 0. First, we have to find the y-int so it's easy. The slope is -2.65 because for every medium coffee, her balance goes down 2.65$. So we have y=-2.65x+b. Plugging in any point, I choose (4,14.40), we get 14.4 = -2.65 × 4 +b. Solving for b we get 25 for the y intercept, meaning the equation is y = -2.65x + 25 . To find the x intercept, we set y=0. So we have 0 = -2.65x+25. Solving for x we get approx. 9.4. We can't have decimals so we round down to 9. So the x int is ≈ 9.4 meaning we can only buy 9 coffee and have a little extra. But, if the problem said how many more coffees can she get, then here is how we do it. Since she already got 4 coffees, and the max is 9, we do 9-4 and we get 5, so she can buy 5 coffeed more.
Recall that a slope-intercept form of a linear equation is
Rearrange the given so that it follows that slope intercept form
The y-intercept is the value for which the linear function crosses the y-axis, this is when the value of x is equal to zero. The ordered pair therefore of the y-intercept is (0,-1).
