Line up the decimal points and multiply the rest like you would normally do it but drop down the decimal at the end
THE ANSWER IS A:
This is the function:
f(x)=|42.67-x|.
42.670 -.002 =42.668
42.668 mm to 42.670
Explanation:
Production will be stopped if the difference in diameter is greater than 0.002 mm.
This difference can mean that the golf ball has a diameter more than 0.002 larger than 42.67 mm, or a diameter more than 0.002 smaller than 42.67. This is the reason for using an absolute value function.
Absolute value represents the distance a number is from 0. For this function, we would want only the values where the function is less than 0.002.
Using the product rule, we have
so that
The equation of the tangent line to <em>W(x)</em> at <em>x</em> = 7 has all the information we need to determine <em>m'</em> (7).
When <em>x</em> = 7, the tangent line intersects with the graph of <em>W(x)</em>, and
<em>y</em> = 4.5 + 2 (7 - 7) ==> <em>y</em> = 4.5
means that this intersection occurs at the point (7, 4.5), and this in turn means <em>W</em> (7) = 4.5.
The slope of this tangent line is 2, so <em>W'</em> (7) = 2.
Then
Answer:
x = 15
Step-by-step explanation:
We assume you want to find the value of x.
Know (or prove) that in this geometry, all of the right triangles are similar. That means the ratios of corresponding sides are proportional.
short side / hypotenuse = 9/x = x/25
x^2 = (9)(25) . . . . . . . . . . multiply by 25x ("cross multiply")
x = √((9)(25)) = (3)(5) . . . take the square root
x = 15
